GET THE LOOK:

Love an army green jacket. Bonus points if it’s quilted. I sized up to a medium in this one from Everlane for an even more oversized fit. Been throwing it over everything and I’m finding that it’s a perfect transitional piece to take you into spring. I’m thinking of also getting it in cream!

one piece, two simple yet chic ways http://waityouneedthis.com/one-piece-two-simple-yet-chic-ways/ http://waityouneedthis.com/one-piece-two-simple-yet-chic-ways/#comments Thu, 20 Feb 2020 01:11:01 +0000 http://waityouneedthis.com/?p=6358 Read The Post]]>

GET THE LOOK:

There’s just something about a long sleeve ribbed top. It feels like a warm hug when you slip it on. Add the perfect striped palette, and this simple piece becomes a statement all it’s own. I just got a good one from Banana Republic and it reminded me how much I love a good staple piece. I’m always gravitating toward trendier items, so it’s a refreshing addition to my closet. I paired it with a slip dress for an easy weekend look. Just add sneakers or boots depending on the weather and you’re brunch-ready. Keep scrolling to see how I styled it during fashion week!

WEARING:

BANANA REPUBLIC Satin Slip Dress

BANANA REPUBLIC Ribbed Top

Groovy is the first word that comes to mind for this NYFW look. Give me denim with a high waist and a flare leg and I’m in love. These jeans fit like a glove and are honestly the push I needed in a sea of relaxed fits, straight legs, and mom jeans that have overtaken my wardrobe the last few years. Teamed with the coziest of jackets, I wish you could come through the screen and feel just how soft this fuzzy trucker is!

good-doers : dudley stephens http://waityouneedthis.com/good-doers-dudley-stephens/ http://waityouneedthis.com/good-doers-dudley-stephens/#comments Wed, 15 Jan 2020 15:25:44 +0000 http://waityouneedthis.com/?p=6325 Read The Post]]>

SHOP MY EDIT:

You know I love my female founded companies. Dudley Stephens is founded by two sisters, but that’s not why I’m featuring them today. For the new year, I’m launching a feature called “Good-doers” where I’ll be highlighting fashion brands (and maybe some beauty ones too!) that are sustainable, give back, or amplify important causes.

Let’s kick things off with Dudley Stephens, a workout meets streetwear brand with a new capsule collection that’s made locally here in Brooklyn from recycled fleece! The company’s goal with this new collection is to show us just how fashionable recycled fleece can be, and I’d say they nailed it. I’m wearing the Millbank Maxi Coat, freshly launched today! I can’t think of many pieces that are chicer or more fashionable than a maxi length coat. Throw it over classic pieces like high-waist denim and a simple sweater for an instantly pulled together look. I’d also pair this coat with a midi or maxi length dress and chunky boot. Bonus points if your outfit and coat hemlines meet like mine do here. I always think that makes an outfit really come together and look even more intentional.

By the way, most Dudley Stephens pieces are made from recycled yarn, not just the capsule collection! Shop my edit from the brand above and feel good knowing that you are shopping sustainably AND supporting two female founders.

SHOP MY EDIT:

Sometimes a classic is the coolest way to go. Currently rocking the puffer coat trend in The North Face. Just add sporty sunnies and a beanie that pops. I haven’t felt cooler (or warmer) all winter.

Shop my edit of The North Face parkas & accessories above and get the look.

GET THE LOOK:

Holiday weekends are the perfect time to play tourist in NYC. The city slows down and the comfy looks come out. Over Thanksgiving I wanted to wear nothing but cozy pieces, like this Dudley Stephens fleece, while doing loads of sightseeing, eating, and window shopping. It’s one of their signature pieces. Think if it as a stylish version of those Eddie Bauer fleeces that everyone had or wanted years ago—a fresh classic for your closet…and comfortable af.

Check out my Dudley edit below. Love that this brand is sustainable. Their pieces are manufactured using recycled yarn from repurposed plastic bottles.

GET THE LOOK:

Wear it to Thanksgiving dinner. Wear it for a holiday happy hour. This suit is set for any festive fete on your calendar this season. I felt like a stylish Santa Clause running around in this rust velvet number, gift in hand. I’m already deep into holiday gifting mode and have been eyeing a few items ahead of Nordstrom’s Cyber sale coming up on Nov 26th. Can’t reveal everything I’m gifting because I want my friends & fam to be surprised, but their curated gift shops are a great place to start browsing now and shopping as soon as the sale goes live. I’m eyeing a few things for myself too, like this coat (will be $75) and these faux leather leggings (will be $78). Do you shop cyber sales around Thanksgiving time? For yourself or for gifts? Let me know in the comments!

cheat sheet: holiday style & gifts for under $200 http://waityouneedthis.com/holiday-style-gift-guide/ http://waityouneedthis.com/holiday-style-gift-guide/#respond Tue, 19 Nov 2019 19:25:13 +0000 http://waityouneedthis.com/?p=6171 Read The Post]]>

The holiday season is here. Can you even believe! Time to refresh your wardrobe with all things festive and start putting together your gift list (and your “get me this” list). To help, I’ve put together an edit of holiday pieces for all your party needs and gift ideas for her, him, and them! And it’s ALL under $200. Keep scrolling to shop my look (it’s head-to-toe EXPRESS) and so many other chic & festive outfit + gift finds. I’ll be updating this guide as I find more goodies, so keep checking back until you’ve checked everyone off your list!

HOLIDAY STYLE:

GIFTS FOR YOUR GIRLS:

From cute pjs & slippers, to cocktails and candles, when it comes to your girlfriends it’s all about self care. Give her the gift of unwinding with these finds under $200. I love this pillow case & sleep mask set for a Secret Santa or White Elephant situation.

GIFTS FOR THE GUYS:

Guys can be tough to crack, so my advice is to give him something you know he needs or that you’d love to see him in! I’m getting my guy this stylish sherpa jacket that I know he’ll look great it (but would never get for himself). All also under $200!
