Easy transitional basics
Don't miss this post for the latest of my favorite summer-to-fall styles!
Today I am flying back to New York from Paris! It's been such a fabulous trip with great food, amazing shopping and friend time over the last several days. While I'm sad to leave Paris, I'm also looking forward to a chill week once I'm home. We have been going, going, going on this trip! I didn't even have a spare second to share all of my trip content on stories each day! I'm finally going to be rolling that out of the next few days. I will say it was nice to be fully present and not worrying about posting for once. I can't wait to share where we went, what we ate and what I bought! There’s a little new, a little old and an incredible sale find in my suitcase.
One of my favorite purchases this spring/summer season has been this Tibi mock-neck tee! I think the higher neckline and thick, quality cotton looks incredibly fresh and modern. It's been such a solid basic to wear on its own or under any kind of jacket! They just restocked it in all sizes in white here, but it comes in a number of other colors as well - I'm in the XS. The fit is fairly boxy and it is on the longer side, but looks amazing tucked into jeans and skirts - I actually think the extra length helps it stay tucked in better than some other styles I've worn in the past. It runs slightly oversized, so I'd recommend sizing down.
These pants are newer, but I guarantee they'll be just as useful! Green is an unlikely neutral - it looks great with nearly anything, just like denim. Consider these the pants version of your favorite utility jacket! I love the on-trend update with the slightly curved, barrel leg shape. These pants feature an elasticized panel in the waist for ultimate comfort too. They are such a great style for everyday casual wear, travel and more, and a pair you can wear from spring to summer, summer to fall.
If you’re in the market for some transitional staples, don’t miss more of my current favorites below!
This number is such a fun style for wearing under an oversized blazer - perfect with a pair of heels for a night out!
This utility jacket is under $75 and adds polish to your everyday tees/sweaters + jeans looks.
This lace-trim skirt is sooooo pretty! Style it with a white tee and sneakers for summer and with a sweater and pumps this fall/winter!
This chocolate brown knit dress is lightweight and features a stylish sheer skirt - an elegant option you can wear on summer nights and throughout the fall season!
I recently snagged this miniskirt on sale for under $85 (on Shopbop - sadly sold out now and not marked down anywhere else)! It looks amazing with just a black tee and strappy sandals - the color is a deep olive, so definitely a useful option as the seasons change.
While linen isn’t a fall/winter fabric, this LBD will definitely get worn until the temps really start to drop. It has been the most versatile, useful piece! I just wore it with sneakers in Paris over the weekend.
This denim jacket I recently purchased is another summer-to-fall find! The slightly darker, dirty wash is perfect for wearing into fall - lighter washes always feel too summery!
While I will still wear and love my ATP sandals I picked up a couple years ago, I recently bought these and am excited to have them as an option now that the thong sandal look is hot! I especially like styling them with midi skirts and jeans/pants!

PS: there won’t be a Style Steals Under $150 look today - I unfortunately did not have time to finish that before I left town! Sorry about that! We’ll be back to regularly scheduled programming next week.
