Silk Crepe Ruffle Coat (3.1 Phillip Lim, $1,950)
The first time that I saw this coat, I thought it was incredible. The second time, I wondered how it would fit. And the third time, I began to wonder if it would swallow me like a furry Halloween costume.
What do you ladies think?
It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.
Inside the reader mail bag there are questions about summer beauty, hiring a personal shopper, navigating a sudden breakouts, and more. Let’s dig in!
And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.

Since Sloane was born, I’ve fallen hard into a black, white, and blue wardrobe. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but as spring blooms, I need a little color in my wardrobe (and probably a little print too). Here are a few tops that caught my eye for work.
I think it would be drastically improved if it weren’t such a ho-hum color.
The only kind of person I can possible think would look good in this is someone very frail and petite. Like an Olson twin or something.
Coats with a bit of volume are rarely bad.
Horrible.
maybe with a cute, sparkly belt?
An Olson twin type with either really pale or dark skin could pull it off, I think. That color is hard to pull off for those of us with a skin tone that’s too similar.
Maybe if you are very tall….with cute skinny jeans and super high heels – the belted comment sounds good too
My first thought was actually “sad elephant.” Sorry.
I am madly in love with this coat, and briefly considered becoming homeless for a month to afford it. Personally, I think it would overwhelm someone with a tiny frame, there’s too much fabric on it.
I think it’s super cute, with a chunky brown leather or sparkly belt. That being said, I can think of like 2 people who can afford this. I’m excited to see if someone could reproduce a more affordable option comparable to this.
Mummy costume.
