Dear Friends,Carolyn Bessette Kennedy didn’t just dress well – she created a visual legacy. Her wardrobe was precise, polished, and deeply personal: slip dresses, crisp white shirts, tailored trousers, and long coats. She wore Manolo Blahnik heels without flash, carried bags without logos, and elevated everyday staples from Calvin Klein, Prada, Miu Miu, and Yohji Yamamoto into her own kind of uniform. Today, as fashion revisits the 1990s with peak obsession, CBK’s influence is at an all-time high.

Dear friends,Some things we can’t deny this May: The laced camisole is chic again. Capri pants feel cool in that crisp, 90’s kind of way. Linen continues to be my go-to for looking polished without trying too hard – and yes, I’ve got five effortless ways to wear it. In between, I’ve fallen for sculptural earrings spotted on Instagram, and rediscovered the quiet glamour of a silk headscarf (à la Carolyn Bessette).

Dear friends,Linen has been a staple in my summer wardrobe for at least the past ten years – and for good reason. It’s the one fabric I reach for again and again when the temperatures rise: light, breathable, and always just the right amount of polished. I’ve worn it everywhere – to the office, the playground, the beach, dressed it up for dinners out, and thrown it on for city strolls. It’s the kind of effortless that never goes out of style. Looking for summer outfit inspo?

Dear friends,Confession time: I haven’t planned any holidays yet. A wedding invite here, a weekend getaway there, but nothing that screams beach! So instead, I dreamt myself into a vacation scenario. Picture this: iced coffees in the morning sun, a good book in one hand, the other dipping into crystal-clear water. Lazy lunches, spontaneous swims, maybe a cheeky afternoon cocktail, followed by a golden-hour nap and seaside dinners that involve loads of seafood. And of course, the outfits to match.

Dear friends,There’s just something about spring neutrals. Maybe it’s the way those soft, sun-washed tones feel like a breath of fresh air after winter. Or how linen and silk move so effortlessly, catching the light and breeze in all the right ways. It’s minimalism, but with warmth – quiet, chic, and so easy to wear. I’ve searched the internet (and already filled a few shopping baskets) for pieces that can be worn again and again – the kind that make getting dressed feel simple, but never boring.
