This amazing Nanette Lepore two-piece jacket and skirt set is perfect for the young at heart, whimsical woman in the office who’s not afraid to show off her personality! The outside is a traditional black, but the white stitching and flower button details really livens things up and make it a bit more fun and feminine. My favorite part, however, is the bright pink lining! It’s such a fun detail that really only the wearer knows about, which I love. Not only is it whimsical, fun, and lined in my favorite color, it’s also my size…I might just have to try it out myself. Available for purchase tomorrow.

We’re celebrating Coco Chanel’s Birthday with a throwback from our archives. Love Sarah channeling Chanel in a vintage tweed skirt suit and a cascade of pearls. Sarah was the perfect canvas for timeless ease. Hair and makeup? Flawless. The styling? 100% pre-loved.

Why this matters hashtag :
Freedom first. Chanel swapped stiff corsetry for movement—jersey knits, clean lines, pockets—so women could live in their clothes.
Tweed reimagined. Borrowed from menswear and equestrian life, the tweed suit (refined in the 1950s) made comfort and polish compatible.
Pearls, democratized. By mixing fine and faux, Chanel elevated costume jewelry; layers of pearls became a statement of style, not status.
Less fuss, more function. From the little black dress to hands-free bags, her legacy is ease over excess.

How we carry it forward: we honor that spirit with pre-loved and vintage pieces, keeping stories in circulation and waste out of landfills. Our shoots (like this one) use what already exists, proving style can be unforgettable without creating something new. That’s how we transform waste into wonder.

Wear your values. Create your story. Design your legacy.
