This is why I have fallen in love with Substack (and your newsletter)! I’m interested - no, fascinated - with how women develop and progress their style. What they choose, but more importantly, HOW they put things together.

Btw, love the Beethoven reference. I lean into a cross between Rene Russo in Thomas Crowne Affair and Cate Blanchette in Oceans 8. Anytime I need inspiration, I rewatch!!

O my goodness Laurel you’re in my head... I grew up w a Westchester (CT adjacent) Dad.. & as LA has gotten chillier I’ve gone FULL CT dad 🤦🏼‍♀️😂😂

I have a bunch of his sweaters/I adopted cords a few years ago so mine are very “worn in Dad”.. the loafers, Shetland sweaters.. we have so much of his classic garb.. that my boys & I carefully share/parse.

Tho they r in 30’s so hard stares may ensue during a “handoff” w a discard ... & “mom. It’s a VEE-neck”

Quel horreur

Hanging on every word. I love the deconstruction of what makes these work. I’d also love to know where you’d wear. Also also, you made me laugh with the horny slimeball reference 😘
