I am really into this abstract print from Nanushka. This is one easy piece that I am slipping in for the rest of summer. Lightweight and totally chic.

I love the idea of romanticizing the everyday. For example, wear something flowing to the grocery store. My mood is instantly lifted when I’m living out my fantasy. This spring is all about having a whimsical mindset and I am so excited to give you a sneak peek into Phillip Lim‘s new collection: Romance Reality. Let your imagination run wild a little more these days.

Easing into spring with all of the classics. This silhouette just puts a spring in my step and I love the feeling it’s giving me. More dresses like this one please!

The ultimate retro red après-ski look. Made for sipping a hot toddy by the fireplace and kicking off your snow boots. There are plenty of ski spots I miss: Aspen, Banff, and Andorra to name a few. I can’t wait to be on the slopes again. Sometimes the burst of cold is the best way to start off the year mentally refreshed.

I hope for more relaxing days like these in 2022. A little behind the scenes from a project shot with BCBGMAXAZRIA and it’s all about comfort and simplicity. This is my home uniform. It happens to be great for movie nights or working on my laptop on the couch. I’m still easing into the new year, without any rush. Sit, breathe, and stretch.

I love working with Marc Jacobs on the fashion side. I just recently shot a livestream for the fashion house with Bloomingdales and it all reminded me why Marc has inspired me throughout my entire career. His clothing brings out individuality, rebellion, and a major cool factor. He is bringing back the extra long cardigan and mini skirt big time.

I love the view up here at Summit One Vanderbilt. I got to take a sneak peek of the space before it opened to the public and fell in love with how the city can be seen from just about every angle. I think my working girl attire definitely suited the mood of this new skyscraper. The jacket is a piece I keep grabbing over and over again in my closet. Hanh Collection is a designer from Vietnam, currently based in NYC. Not only was it in my favorite fit (an oversize shoulder, cropped fit, and cinched waist,) but it comes in a print that reminds me of my Asian roots. The Xuan jacket is simply epic and also an investment piece.

Match the grass to your top. Match your top to your bucket hat. So much green just in time for spring. This is something to live in come the long holiday weekend.

WOS brand, aka Walk of Shame, is a super cool brand based in Moscow that my best friend introduced me to. They have given a whole new definition to the word onesie. This overall is one that can literally go 24 hours with me. I can wake up in it, workout in it, run to the deli in it, and even head to a star-studded party in it. It’s that good. This time, I kept it low key and brought it out it in nature. It hugs the body in all the right places and allows me to move. It’s a win, win.

Who knew a Yankees hat and Salvatore Ferragamo pumps were a match made in heaven? I am all about taking my most luxurious pieces and dressing them down for the everyday. This is one fall color palette that I go to endlessly. Houndstooth? Check. Cream turtleneck? Check. A dainty shoe? Check. Baseball cap? Check. I will never get tired of fall of NYC. It makes my heart skip a beat and puts a skip in my step.
