It is shocking to think, as I look out on gloomy, grey Los Angeles, that soon the jacaranda trees will start to bloom, as they always do in late March, and spring will show its first signs of arrival once again. As we ease into rising temperatures, I look to the pieces in my closet I know I'll be wearing: dresses over denim, Brooke Callahan’s poplin, trench coats, rain jackets, and crewneck sweaters.
Also on my mind for spring: 6397 continues to impress with their Pre-Spring collection, though I’d be swayed to buy anything that Lexie Smith wears. I need to urgently get my hands on this Sporting Blazer before it sells out (medium is already gone!). The shape is everything I look for when going out for errands, dinner with friends, or a trip to the grocery store (why not?). I have never ever been a blazer person (despite mentioning two thus far in this column) in fear of looking Unapproachable and Too Serious, but as I near 30, I'm thinking about my style in a more refined way. Dare I say I want to lean in? Plus, my hair is quite long as it stands, and we all know about the Olson Tuck.
