Another great leather jacket look for fall! In keeping with the theme of my first LJOOTD post, I'm again posing in from of a colorful mural! This one of the Hulk and Wolverine can be found in the strip district near the 31st street bridge. The tag is "crass boys" but I couldn't find anything from a quick Google for more info.

As to the outfit, sporting my new combat boots with this jacket, while mixing in some quirky polka-dot pants. And what badass female ensemble would be complete without a Ruth Bader Ginsburg pin! Representing gender equality and powerful women, and hoping for a brighter, socially just future. Election days is upon us. If you haven't already, please make a plan to vote, either in person, or mailing in your ballot here in the next few days. Voting is a right that many have fought, went to jail, and died for. Don't let the sacrifices of those from the past go to waste here in the present.

Two Things

First: Isabel Marant's collocation for H&M debuts today in select stores AND online at noon, so you may want to get up on that. Here are a few looks I'm lusting after. Hello mixed patterns! Love the oversized coat and the detail on these jeans. Patterned blazer, cropped colorful trousers, yes please! Of course, I cannot partake in this collection with my Year Of No Shopping, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't. So get ready to go by noon because I'm sure this noise will sell out fast. Number Two: I'm thinking about a new haircut. Something along the lines of Tilda Swinton . What do we think? I'm not going to go blond, but I like the shorter/buzzed sides and back with length on the top. Mr. Keller is hesitant, he thinks it's too masculine, but I'm kind of in the mood to go a bit edgy and I've had the same cut now for two-ish years... FYI: Tilda Swinton is my spirit animal! ...

40 Year Old Cottagecore

dress-Anthropologie(more options here ), sunnies- DIFF Eyewear , necklace- Benevolence LA , bag-- Shiraleah , sandals- Born I first became aware of Cottagecore earlier this summer and found it to be an aesthetic I can appreciate and find aspirational , but was not necessarily a style that aligned with my wheelhouse. Well as I've been growing my hair during covid quarantine and having picked up this dress as seen here , I felt that I was ready to tackle #cottagecore here on my 40th birthday!!! Yep, that's right today I turn 40 (but I don't look it). And while it's been a year like no other, I feel excited for my next year, decade, chapter of my life. I think it's fair to say I'm done having babies and ready to move on from the chaos of very little children to the chaos of big kids. I no longer feel like I have something to proof in my work, writing, sense of self. I'm just going to enjoy and be grateful for the many blessings of family, friends, health, a...

Rent the Runway Wedding Vote

I may be on vacation at the moment, but I'm thinking of the future, in particular the wedding I'm attending back home next month. A ton of high school friends will be there. Some I am dying to hang out with, while others I'm hoping to make a bit jelly... Regardless, an outfit is required. I mentioned the idea of wearing a summer suit in this post . But now I'm feeling more of killer-blow-them-away dress. I'm also thinking I may have to call in the big guns and utilize the services of Rent the Runway . 1. Elie Tahari Love the pattern here. The user reviews & pics lead me to believe this will be quite flattering on my body type. 2. Kate Spade This is so groovy and I love the use of a statement necklace in this look. But, I'm wondering if I'm not attracted to the overall styling of the picture for the website or if I really like the dress on its on. 3. Milly ...
