With everyone still in Coachella mode, this may be a hard concept to grasp. Floral prints, flowy dresses, boho everything… I am getting over it.
My life & home is very structured/simplistic, & that’s the direction my closet is going too.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not tossing all of my hippy-chic faves, but I did get rid of quite a few (you can shop all my giveaways here– more pieces coming soon!). I have come to the realization that I need to stop trying so hard to love color just cause everyone else does, & accept the fact that I look best in neutrals.
It’s all about what works on you, but as I get older… my style is becoming more refined & I am digging it.
These days I am working on channeling my inner Karl Lagerfeld, MK&A, & Ivania Carpio— starting w/ the below pieces. Lushing big time.
xx, E
1 // Pretty Kitty Shades:: the more affordable version of the oh-so-coveted Valley Wolves.
2 // BB Dakota Aslan Vest Dress:: Just ordered this lil’ number & have been dreaming about it on my doorstop nightly. C’est chic.
3 // Brixton Messer Hat:: Throw it on w/ anything & everything.
4 // Faux Croc Trapeze Bag:: Crossbody, black, croc. Obsessed.
5 // New Look Tailored Blazer:: Peach- for when I feel I need a teeny, subtle touch of color.
6 // Jeffrey Campbell Wesley Oxfords:: That rounded point is killing it.

YES! I have been purging my closet like crazy. I’m being ruthless with my choices and it is liberating! I’m all about adopting a refined and sophisticated style so your post meshes perfectly with how I’m feeling! XO
so glad ;) !! Spring closet cleaning is the best.
Girlfriend I agree 100% with this! I always tried to rock the hippy-chic look (and still do once in a while) because it fits well with my personality – but the key word here is TRIED, like I actually had to put effort into looking effortless. My go-to’s now are always simple jeans, lots of white, cream, light gray.. so much easier and works better on me. I’m also in major need of a closet purge asap!
