As told by Jessica Steele. Based in NYC.
As we start to bridge the gap between Summer and Fall I’ve been reaching for materials like suede and calf hair that are perfect for Fall, but in pieces that work for the last of Summer’s heat.

I originally thought I’d be able to break out this fringe top over the weekend as a swimsuit cover-up, but the weather had other plans. Luckily it works just as well thrown on over denim in part 2 of what is apparently becoming a Seventies, Americana theme here on the blog (check out part 1 here).

After another week of ‘June Gloom’ in New York, I’m welcoming the official start of Summer this weekend with open arms. Hoping the sun comes out this weekend to celebrate, but either way – another pretty great way to get ready for the season is with a little bit of sale shopping. Some of my favorites are offering awesome discounts right now, so I rounded up a list below, plus if you hover over the instagram snaps above, you can click through to those exact items directly (the original prices are shown for the most part, so get ready to have reverse sticker shock when you get to the sites.. my favorite kind!). Aside from snagging some deals, I’ll be celebrating Father’s Day with my family Saturday night and working on a little bedroom makeover here at home which I’ll be sharing a peek at next week! Happy Friday/weekend/summer/everything my friends 🙂

Memorial Day weekend is one of my favorite times of year to shop. By this point in the season I’ve done my Spring cleaning and have been able to truly assess what I’m missing in my wardrobe (a pair of white jeans, black sandals and another office-ready skirt are currently topping my list) and the weather has turned so that all those cute Summer items I’ve been staring at online are now actually wearable. Oh, and it just so happens, all my favorite retailers have major sales. So aside from having an NYC staycation this long holiday weekend, I’ll be scooping up some deals. Below – my top picks:
(20% fully priced items w/ code LONGWKND – how cool is this denim pinafore?)
(40% off site wide + free shipping w/ code FCMS40 – this midi skirt has been on repeat lately)

One of the things I love about traveling (and there are many) is getting to dress a little bit differently. While I always want to feel comfortable and like myself, whenever I visit a new place I try and adopt a bit of their unique style into my own.
