Let’s not mince words: We are middle aged. We have wrinkles. We have grey hair. And we’re reaching the age where the homepage headlines feature the names of 20-something “celebrities” we’ve never even heard of.
Sometimes you have to see a piece of clothing in the wild to truly appreciate it, seeing it in the store just isn’t enough. Grey jeans, for example. On a shelf, not for me. At brunch, on a woman who looked relaxed and chic? Now, I need them.
The theme of 2013 was more is more. Wearing a bracelet? Wear five. Add a belt. Add a necklace, maybe two . . . make it three. So when I look at outfits from a decade ago, my first instinct is always: do less.

Capitol Hill Style is back! After a month-long hiatus, we have returned to celebrate boot season. As if I would miss it. For me, a committed summer girl, boot season is the primary thing that makes fall enjoyable. So let’s get to it with the best boots for Fall 2023.
This is more of a question than a comment. What do you think of the shirt-tail sweaters that are cut up over the hip? What do you wear with them besides a skinny pant of some sort? Are they office appropriate? Thanks for your reply.
Belle – just curious how you maintain knits like this when you buy them? It seems like every time I buy something like this, it winds up getting pulled by my purse, jacket, or whatever, and it looks ragged in a pretty short period of time.
I love open weave sweaters like this, but how do you avoid getting pulls. Between kids and dogs my sweaters like this are always getting ruined.
