Jumpsuit: L’Academie via Revolve (c/o), The Rayne Jumpsuit
– wearing a size medium –
L’Academie (one of my favorite brands from Revolve) has mastered the art of elegant, sophisticated dressing with chic and polished pieces complete with stylish details. These contemporary pieces are effortlessly easy to style with your favorite denim or classic heels.
The Renata is a spacious canvas market tote with stylish woven leather details. On-trend resin handles allow you to carry by hand, and a removable adjustable crossbody shoulder strap allows for hands-free styling on the go. Perfect for a casual beach getaway or a dressed-up dinner, you’ll never run out of ways to wear this statement piece.
The time has come! We are finally ditching the tie-dye sweatsuits and “dressing up.”
We all need a couple of flattering dresses in our wardrobe and a ruched dress is super flattering on any shape and is also chic and stylish.
What exactly is ruching?
Ruching is a gathered overlay of fabric strips that are pleated, fluted, or gathered together to create a ripple-like effect. The frill or pleat of the fabric, often lace, chiffon, or muslin, has evolved from the 16th-century ruff.
Ruching is often used in wedding dresses, particularly in the bodice, to create a slim torso or waist and to draw attention to the narrowest part of the body.
It also has the effect of concealing figure details behind the fabric.
Now, after a year in quarantine who doesn’t want that?
I am OBSESSED with these sneakers! Would I wear them hiking? Probably not (snag my hiking boots here), but I would wear them out and about in the city.
A sculpted platform and toothy, serrated sole jack up the stature of a high-top sporting an iconic Converse profile and a debossed star framed on the heel.
Equal parts old school and new, these trainers have a super cushy, ultra-supportive fit. They’re also as eco-friendly as they can make them. The cotton lining and rubber outsoles are recycled and the leather is sustainable.
Cute, comfortable, and the colors in these trainers go with everything.
Handcrafted low-top buffed calfskin sneakers in white. The smudging and distressing throughout gives them a distructed look that I have really learned to love! The terrycloth and leather lining makes them REALLY comfortable.
These were my first pair of Golden Goose sneakers and I HIGHLY recommend starting with this style.

6| M. Gemi, Palestra Alta Platform | use the discount code: KAT60
I adored the Palestra Minimo so much that I wrote an entire blog post about them.
The Palestra Alta Platform has a little extra volume and everything you love about the low-profile version (sleek, minimal design and less-is-more details), with added height and a raised platform sole for a punch of trending street-style for the Gen Z kids. These are the most comfortable sneaker yet and perfect for travel. I wear them 24/7.
I love this dress so much I decided to dedicate an entire blog post to it. It’s just one of those Free People bangers that I can’t stop wearing or chatting about. Easily transition from day to night in this sultry and slinky slip dress. I’ve worn this stunner everywhere from the beach in Maui to brunch in San Francisco. The adjustable ruched sides allow you to wear it long or short and it is truly a 10/10 piece in my closet.
Details: adjustable straps, cowl neckline + adjustable side ties <- for the perfect hem length
The slip dress is characterized by its minimalist appearance. Often done in one color, with spaghetti straps and a midi length, it was the must-have item in the 90s and everything from the 90s is back in full effect today!
The slip dress is also commonly done in a silky material. The slip dress is popular to pair with more casual elements such as sneakers, a denim jacket, or shacket. It’s also popular to embrace the more nightgown appearance of the slip dress and work a pair of slippers with the dress. This slip dress is a great summer piece as it’s lightweight, easy to style, and relatively wrinkle-free, and easy to travel with.
