Tops
Working on adding more warm weather clothing! These are items I feel you can build a wardrobe around. It’s not about quantity, it’s about great foundation pieces and a few items that pop!
Perfect summer top - dress up or down with a cute skirt, shorts or jeans
Tie-Back Shell Top in 100% Linen
Perfect lightweight long sleeve top. Great for going in and out of air conditioning in the summer.
THE COLLARED CARDI POWDER BLUE MULTI
Perfect top with jeans
Veronica Beard Nate Plaid Mock Neck Long Sleeve Top
Love this for an evening out or the office. Works with jeans, a skirt or dress pants
Two Tone Rib Knit Cardigan by Toccin
Cute and easy to wear. Looks great with both jeans and dress pants. Fitted and cropped
Cashmino - Wool Cashmere Sweaters & Cardigans
Basic. Comfortable. Affordable. Great color choices. A wardrobe staple for sure
CashSoft Turtleneck Sweater
Wear it alone or with a T-shirt peeking out the top and bottom. This is soft, easy and checks all the boxes for warmth and style.
Shrunken Crew - Cropped Sweater
Shoes
Fall and Winter current go to items - will expand as the weather changes
I love the Loraine loafer and have it in multiple fabrics - super comfy! My most recent acquisition is this cow pattern. Every time I wear these I get compliments. Perfect way to add a little sass to any outfit
Sam Edelman Loraine Cow Print Calf Hair Bit Buckle Loafers
I love these because they are super comfy and an easy way to add a pop of color to a casual outfit. These are my go to shoes with jeans when I am running about during the day
Women's adidas Shoes
I am a big fan of the kitten heel and find it a great way to elevate a look without killing my feet in high heels. Love these with jeans or dress pants - especially in the chocolate brown suede
Vinnie Bootie 50
Jeans, a black cashmere turtleneck, and these boots. Simple yet fashionable. Look totally put together in something easy to throw on.
Women's Boots & Booties
I am not sure that I have ever met an animal print I didn't like. I especially like an animal print as an accessory on my feet to add a little pizazz to an otherwise ordinary outfit.
LENREE LEATHER BOOTIE
I am having a chocolate boot moment - and these fit the bill perfectly. Love to wear with jeans, a dress or long skirt. I have a feeling these boots will be a staple in my closet for years to come
Coach Park Tall Boot
Bottoms
Mostly jeans with a few other bottoms thrown in every now and again.
Love these pants. Medium weight perfect for work or to be dressed up for a night out. I have them in red. Tempted to get them in white as well
Pistola Sabrina High Waist Barrel Twill Utility Pants - Nordstrom
Love these pants! I always get so many compliments when wearing. The embroiderey has some small cut-outs for interest. Wear with so many different colored tops to change the look!
White Adunco Long Trouser
These might be my favorite pair of pants ever. I honestly love them. A polished look, while being completely comfortable. I would buy them in every color if possible.
High-Rise Tailored Trousers
The wrap waist on these pants is so interesting! It pairs perfectly with a fitted top and some statement jewelry
Linen Tapered Wrap Pants
Sometimes your wardrobe needs the perfect pair of cream colored jeans. It just gives a bit of an elevated vibe in the summer. These are great for dressing up or staying casual.
Billie High Rise Barrel Jeans in Crema
Straight leg that reaches the top of my shoes. So many jeans lately hit above the ankle - love the look AND it makes me cold in the winter. These are polished enough to pair with a blazer or a dressy top. Love Joe's Jeans.
THE MIA
Barrel jeans with a flare. I have the two tone dark wash. I wear on repeat & have received a ton of compliments
THE BOWIE – Joe's® Jeans
Outerwear
I am creating this list while it is currently freezing - so that is my focus. Things I wear to keep me warm. As the weather changes, so will this list
Anything I can do to add a little pop of color and fun to my wardrobe while waiting for the warm weather to return is a must for me. This is both warm and fun. It has been a great addition to my winter wardrobe
Gia Crop Puffer Jacket
Faux sherling jacket. Really cute. Not super warm - more of a fashion statement than a functional jacket in the winter. Great late fall - early spring piece.
Astra Shearling Jacket
Lightweight & warm! I am a big fan of outerwear that allows you to forget you are wearing outerwear. This piece does just that.
Minnie Cashball Puffer Jacket in Navy Nylon | Shop Ann Mashburn
Accessories
This is my favorite work bag. Big enough to fit my laptop and a couple of organizational pouches. Looks classy while staying super functional and the handles are long enough to go over my shoulder for the walk from my car into the office.
LV Neverfull Bag: Designer Tote Handbag
I have this in the bright blue. Love it as my Spring bag for work - the pop of color adds fun and drama. I have been using this intermittently for the past 10 years. It looks just as good now as it did when I first bought it.
MyWalit Leather Bags & Designer Bags
I discovered this brand by working in the same building as their head quarters. Beautiful leather with thoughtful additions of pockets and card holders. I have several sling bags and wallets that look great and keep me organized. I especially love wh...
Latico Leather Wallets
Dresses
Perfect dress for the office, a day time wedding, or a night out. Dress down with flats or up with heels.
Lucy Sleeveless Mini Shirtdress
Love this dress. Comfortable and chic. Perfect for the office or an evening out
Chandra Midi Dress by Madewell
Fun for the office or a night out. The draping is super flatering and nicely balances the form-fitting nature of this dress.
Draped Pencil Dress | Chic Womenswear in NYC
Where to shop
My go to stores for finding great pieces and must haves for my wardrobe
I recently lost a lot of weight and found myself with a closet full of clothes that no longer fit me (a nice problem to have as far as I am concerned!) I joined RTR to help me rediscover styles and sizes that work best with my new shape. It has been ...
Rent the Runway
Old Navy is my first stop when I am looking for wardrobe foundation pieces and undergarments. I am a big texture and feel person and Old Navy cotton underware is my absolute favorite.
Bras & Underwear
I love a good scavenger hunt and paying less than full retail on beautiful designer items. Saks Off 5th is always one of my first stops when I am searching for something new
Saks OFF 5TH
If you are in Morris or Union County NJ, this is the only mall you need to go to. It has almost every major brand, luxury stores, great anchor department stores (Neiman, Bloomies, Nordstrom & Macy's) and great restaurants (Eataly, Legal Seafoods,...
The Mall at Short Hills
I was pleased to find that Joe's has a resale site right on their regular website. Have a pair of Joe's that you love and want a spare? Looking for something in great condition and way less expensive than new - here is a great place to go!
