The Closet: February 2021

[Comme Si La Boxer Classica, Silk] – $198

This Closet post is looking a bit lighter than usual, but that’s mostly because we did a major haul shortly after Christmas. We’ve simply run out of things we thought we needed so naturally this post is a reach in that all these things are wants, but not necessities. Can you tell that we’re itching for spring already? Most of these pieces fall within the neutral color family and while that is mainly our aesthetic these days, we can’t help ourselves.

The Closet: Jan 2021

[Vince Tapered Pants] – $245 – $171.50

Somehow 2021 got us into different types of pants. However, given the current state of the world, isn’t that going against the grain a bit? I’m personally taking it as a sign that we’re all just more than ready to get back to normalcy. More than ever, I was hearing from my colleagues that they are ready to get back to the office in January. As much as we all appreciate the flexibility of loungewear, anything in excess starts to become a bad thing. We’re a few days late on this post, but here are some of my favorite pieces from last month:

The Closet: November 2020

[Topshop Clara Shirt Jacket] – $140

As always, the theme is cozy here. Never have I ever leaned into the lounge wear trend more than I have now, but I know someday, I’ll be able to mix and match these pieces for more acceptable outfits in the outside world. In addition to comfortability, now is the best time to stock up on basics. I’ve come to the realization that that is truly something you can never have enough of. Until now, it’s also not something that I prioritized. We are getting a head start on posting this now so that we can begin an earlier release date for our holiday gift guide. Enjoy!

The Closet: October 2020

[TheAnnieFoxShop Vegan Faux Leather Mask] – $16.90

And just like that, our transition into fall things is here! It’s chilly these days. My space heater has become my best friend and no matter how many layers I wear, it never quite feels enough. More than ever, since we’re spending more time at home, I’m watching my wardrobe become increasingly cozy. The number of lounge pieces I’ve purchased in this span of time may even be surpassing the rest of my work wardrobe.

What I’m leaning a lot from this experience too is that cozy doesn’t mean lazy. It doesn’t mean you’re not trying. In fact, you can still dress up these pieces and they can be equally chic.

The Closet: September 2020

[RE/DONE Ribbed Tank] – $80

We don’t believe in no white after Labor Day so here are some favorite pieces included in this post. Also, talk about losing track of time here. It was only today that I realized, I hadn’t posted this and that we were way past due on it. I’ve combed through everything once more just to make sure that these pieces were still available. In the meantime, we’ll get started on October!

The Closet: July 2020

[Free People Lou Jean Babydoll Dress] – $128

With just a few more weeks of summer left (can you believe it?!) it’s tough to know what to shop for. Do we continue to buy summer wear and hope for clearance or do we begin prepping for fall? San Francisco summers make it hard to decipher. In this week alone, I found myself purchasing a swimsuit that I may not use this season and a half-zip long sleeved sweater. It’s clear that we are also still trying to figure this out. This month’s post teeters on both seasons if you’re like us and can’t make up your mind. For once, it also has a hearty mix of accessories along with it!

The Closet: June 2020

[H&M Denim Jacket] – $30

We’ve transitioned to “there is no point in shopping” to “we’re in this for the long haul!” While I’ve never considered myself an online shopper… I’m not lying, I use Amazon once a year, there is a joy that is associated with receiving packages. And that goes for any type of package, not even just the shopping you’re doing for yourself. In times like these, where it seems like things will never get better, we have to treat ourselves. My justification is that I still need clothes to wear to work for my video calls. Also, because of our social media presence, it helps to have outfits that you can be excited by. I promise to be responsible, but I am also going to be making a shopping purchase as soon as we hit “post” on this.

The Closet: February 2020

[Missguided Lace Up Heeled Sandal in Black] – $34 – $19

We are just kicking off a 2020 year of trips! Many of my closest friends are getting married this year and while we typically do our fair share of wedding guest dress purchases, some of these are stretching to other wedding activities – showers, longer weekends, destination weddings, bachelorette parties! It’s a lot to prep for. Last week we were just in LA and there’s something about venturing to a new city that makes us feel like anything we currently own won’t do. This edition of The Closet is jam packed with items that you could bring along with you for any vacation! As always, you know yourself best and whether or not you need to break out the wallet. At the same time, practicing willpower isn’t underrated.

The Closet: July 2019

Solid & Striped The Violet – Top: $89 $44 Bottom: $89 $44

Summer 2019 was the year that we really leaned into summer. In prior years, I never did much shopping during this time because I was saving everything up for the fall. That was my back to school shopping season and truly a transition period. However, San Francisco graced us with beautiful summer days this year and while I didn’t need another swimsuit or another dress, I doubled down.

This summer, more than ever, we embraced color and prints. I purchased my first leopard print dress in a vibrant orange. For a swimsuit, I ventured out of the one-piece and got the new lingerie bikini style that is a hit or miss with the critics. I regret none of my purchases! In this “Closet” post, I’m sharing more of what I didn’t get a chance to buy, but am hoping one of you will fall in love with!
