I got so many questions about this gold dress (on the left) that I’ve been searching everywhere for more and linking all my favorite finds in ShopMy for you guys!

ok somebody seriously needs this for a bachelorette trip or bridal shower!!!

Especially with Practical Magic 2 coming out, these fairy style dresses are going to be a huge trend this fall and winter. Especially with boots and a fur coat? Going to be so good.

This vintage Vera Wang halter gown, priced under $500, is such a good option. I have a wedding this weekend and am wearing a vintage Vera Wang gown that I can’t wait to get pics in! Paired with a Judith Leiber bag and silver Femme LA heels.

I’m obsessed with Sau Lee’s fall collection!!! All of the jacquard gowns are amazing options for a fall wedding. I pulled out one of the colors in the dress and pair it with a velvet blue Armani evening bag and black suede Schutz heels.

If you know me, you know I’m an Alice + Olivia girl, and nobody does wedding guest dressing better than A+O. This beautiful custom print gown is perfect for fall. I paired it with a burgundy velvet Neous evening bag and black suede Schutz heels.

Chartreuse isn’t going anywhere, and I love how Retrofête created this print entirely in chartreuse hues. This gown with the dramatic open back is perfect for a September wedding. I paired it with a gold Jimmy Choo evening bag and gold YSL heels, this is definitely standout.

Recently, I’ve been finding some gems on Etsy. This vintage, no-designer gown is under $200, and the best part is you know nobody else will have it. Pair it with a satin Staud clutch and satin Amina Muaddi heels.

Lace is fall, especially this season since dark romance is such a major trend. I love this lace Zhivago gown paired with a Judith Leiber evening bag and Schutz heels.

Finally, if you run cold like me…you can get a little caplet for your shoulders. Two adorable options below.

Happy shopping,

Recently I’ve gotten really into balconette bras, specifically the Fleur Du Mal Bianca Bra, and I love the look of it under a sheer top. But this isn’t sheer like we did back in our college days. I mean sheer flowy tops with a cool shape, dramatic sleeve, or some kind of detailing that makes it feel special.

I’ve been compiling a bunch of tops to link and obviously have ordered a few for myself. I think this is going to be SUCH a good night-out look. Imagine a sheer top with a fun-colored Bianca bra underneath? Im obsessed.

So let’s talk about the standouts: the jeans that are actually worth buying.

Vintage Levi’s

If you want the perfect pair of vintage Levi’s, size up. I typically wear a 27 waist, but in vintage Levi’s I look for a 30/31 waist. Finding the pair can be tricky, but a few of my favorite in person NYC places to shop are The Westside in Tribeca and Mirth Vintage in Brooklyn. Once you figure out your vintage Levi’s measurements, you can find endless pairs on Etsy and eBay.

R13 Jeans

I cannot stress enough how good R13 jeans are. If you ask me what jeans i’m wearing, 9 out 10 times the answer is R13. The fit is just always right, the denim quality is amazing, and somehow every pair feels soooo cool. I could talk about these jeans for hours. I am so passionate about them.

R13 is expensive, but similar to Levi’s, once you figure out your measurements there are thousands of options on The RealReal ranging from $70-$200 dollars. The trick is to measure your perfect pair and compare those measurements to the ones listed on The RealReal. You’re welcome.

Frame Denim

I’ve never really purchased from Frame, but I received a pair of The Gray Jeans through ShopMy gifting and they quickly become one of my favorite everyday pairs. They’re perfectly low-rise and priced at $198. Such a good closet staple.

Haikure

This is an Italian denim brand I only discovered this past year. They have some extremely flattering jeans. You can immediately feel the quality when you put them on. They just feel expensive. Priced around $375, they are worth every penny and have some great seasonal sales.

Alice + Olivia

If you want a serious statement jean, you go to Alice + Olivia. Nobody does embellished jeans like a+o.

Vintage Y2K

Lately I’ve been searching for vintage 7 For All Mankind and vintage Hudson Jeans on Postmark. It’s that perfect low-rise, distressed, Y2K look. Again, I size up to a 29 or 30 waist, and I’ve found some of my favorite pairs for $20-$50 dollars. If they’re a little too big, I just take them to Greenwich Tailors to have the waist taken in. These are some of my most complimented jeans because everyone is always looking for that slightly worn in jean.

I feel like I only grazed the surface with these suggestions, but I have a full collection of all my favorite jeans on my ShopMy that I am linking HERE.

I truly loved it so much that I think I'm going to go back for my honeymoon…except I might add an Ibiza stop and maybe turn it into a friendmoon…

Getting There

I booked our flights through WorldTek Travel Agency, and specifically worked with Doug Knight. He made the entire experience so quick and easy.

Doug Knight: Doug.Knight@worldtek.com

Where We Stayed: Deià

Our Airbnb was in Deià, about a 40-minute drive from Palma Airport.

This Airbnb was AMAZING!!! It was gorgeous, had a pool, laundry, and even a garage for our rental car. Everything in Deiá is so tiny and parking is basically nonexistent, so this was major.

We were about a seven-minute walk into town and five nights came out to about $1,000 per person for the six of us. For what we got, this was an absolute steal. It was also so aesthetic, which, obviously, matters.

BREAKFAST

Sa Fonda

Sa Fonda was our little go-to café in town and honestly the only place in Deià where we could find a real iced coffee.

Their iced coffee was actually SO good, and they had fire vanilla syrup. Definitely ask for a double shot of espresso though. Trust me.

LUNCH

Sa Fonda

Sa Fonda again. It was also great for a casual lunch and had a bunch of burger options.

The Grocery Store Across From Sa Fonda

I wish I knew the name of this grocery store because somehow the grocery store became one of the winners of the entire trip.

It’s tiny but somehow has literally everything you could possibly need. They also get these incredible fresh sandwiches delivered every day.

Those sandwiches for lunch by the pool? A hit. Every. Single. Day.

Sa Foradada

Sa Foradada is right on the water and basically only accessible by boat or a two-hour hike.

It felt so local and the views were incredible. We had the best seafood paella of our lives. If you’re doing a boat day, you have to make this part of it.

DINNER

Nama

So good. It’s a mix of Spanish and Asian food. It’s a pretty small spot, so definitely make a reservation ahead of time.

Xelini

This was our authentic Spanish tapas night. Really small plates, really good food, and they made really good margaritas.

Graydon spent the trip trying to order a vodka martini with a twist and absolutely no one could get it right. We were cracking up watching him explain to waiters his drink order. They came out wrong every time.

La Residencia

La Residencia is the most beautiful hotel I've ever seen and I’m actually upset that we didn’t discover it until the end of our trip.

They have this gorgeous patio with insane views, and it is the perfect place to go around 7 p.m. for cocktails before dinner. They had live music almost every night, and we loved just sitting outside, ordering drinks, and hanging out.

When I go back, I’m making this a regular pre-dinner stop.

Trattoria Italiana

This is supposed to be an amazing Italian restaurant in town. Unfortunately, I messed up the time of our reservation LOL. But, everyone says it’s amazing. Just show up on time.

BARS

Deià is TINY, so there really aren’t that many places to go out at night. Which honestly ended up being part of the charm.

Sa Fonda

This is one of the places to go at night, but for some reason it was basically closed every night we were there. I’ve heard Sundays are really fun, so maybe we just had bad timing.

Barracó

OUR FAVORITE. One of the bartenders fell in love with Hallie…obviously.

GETTING AROUND

If you don’t rent a car in Mallorca, Blacklane is probably the easiest option if you already know your plans and can schedule your rides ahead of time.

Otherwise, we used a local taxi service: +34 871 510 049

They were super reliable. Loved them.

I will say that having our own rental car was really helpful, especially since our Airbnb had a garage.

BOAT DAYS

A boat day in Mallorca is an absolute MUST.

The water is INSANE. I booked ours through Perfect Charter. They even made our lunch reservation at Sa Foradada because the restaurant wouldn’t pick up my calls.

Perfect Charter: Enquiries@perfectcharter.com

We had so much fun that Graydon literally booked us another boat day while we were there. If I had to choose the one thing you absolutely cannot skip on a Mallorca trip, this would be it.

And now that we’ve covered all that, let’s talk about the most important part…my outfits. YAY.

OUTFITS

Even though it was my bach, I knew I didn’t want to wear white the entire time. I really wanted to incorporate color, and that I did.

DAY 1

I wore these cutie Leset pointelle shorts with a fun Staud shark tank. The sunglasses were vintage Tom Ford that I found in St. Barths.

NIGHT 1

I found these insane D&G jacquard capris on The RealReal and paired them with a vintage Victoria’s Secret babydoll that I had tailored into a top. Underneath, I wore a baby pink Fleur du Mal bra. For shoes, I did Amina Muaddi flip-flop heels.

I loved it SO much. Perfect start to the trip.

DAY 2

Boat day! I wore a blue L*Space bikini with a SeaVibesDesign cover-up.

When we got to lunch, I changed into a cutie Norma Kamali twist skirt and added a vintage crochet top that I tied in the front.

NIGHT 2

I started the night by taking some pictures in this gorgeous vintage La Perla slip dress, and then changed into a vintage Roberto Cavalli set that I rented for the trip from Isle of Monday. I paired it with gold sandals I found in Greece last summer.

DAY 3

Another L*Space bikini, but this time I threw on this cool net tank from Zara with a pair of little Leslie Amon crochet shorts.

NIGHT 3

I had two custom looks.

The first was this insane crochet dress that I had custom-made by an incredibly talented Etsy seller. I basically told her exactly what I had in my head, and she somehow made it come to life.

The second look was made by my friend Yana, who just started her own brand. Truly the dress of my dreams.

I paired both looks with these insane vintage Manolos I found on Poshmark and my mom’s vintage Fendi bag.

DAY 4

Boat day…again. I wore a bikini from Sommer Swim, added a BaubleBar belly chain, and a lace headscarf I found on Etsy.

For my cover-up, I did this set from Gimaguas. The bubble shorts were adorable and the material was SO soft.

NIGHT 4

For our last night, I wore this little Missoni number that I found on Poshmark for literally $30.

When I bought it, it was a size large and went down to my knees. I had it tailored super mini and paired it with these adorable yellow Staud flip-flop heels. And that was it.

I’m obsessed with my friends, outfits, and Mallorca. We had the best time ever. I genuinely miss it so much.

Hope this helps someone plan a trip <3

This week: Anne Fontaine.

I’m actually obsessed.

I’ve recently become way girlier than I ever thought I would be. Suddenly I’m reaching for ruffles, bows, flowers…all the things I used to hate. But specifically, the ruffles, bows, and flowers on vintage Anne Fontaine tops.

There’s just something so cool about the way she does it. The ruffles and flowers don’t feel too girly or dainty. It’s kind of grungy but still feminine? Shredded but tailored? I don’t know what it is. I think it’s sick and I want everything.

I’ve done some digging and found some really good options for you guys to shop and try for yourselves. I’m sharing some of my favorite finds and linking everything below.

Also, let me know what you think of this new weekly series. Is this something you guys would look forward to every week? Because I already have next week’s fixation picked out…

Size Large Ruffle Blouse

Size Medium Ruffle Cardigan

Size Small Ruffle Blouse

A date? No.

I had barely thought about the date. I was, however, obsessing over what I was going to wear. My priorities.

Last summer, when I started booking appointments at bridal salons, I thought I knew exactly what I wanted: high neck, open back, semi-fitted silhouette. I was searching for something unique, “something cool”. But as I started trying on dresses, I was underwhelmed by everything. I felt like I had seen it all before. Wedding dress shopping in the age of Instagram & TikTok is honestly a little discouraging.

So when I started booking bridal appointments last summer, I had one goal: I wanted something different. Something cool.

And, naturally, I also had an extremely specific idea of what would look good on me: high neck, open back, semi-fitted. I had the screenshots. I had the references. I knew exactly what I wanted.

Or so I thought.

Appointment after appointment, I was underwhelmed. The dresses were beautiful. That wasn’t the problem. The problem was that I felt like I had already seen all of them somewhere on Instagram.

Then one Friday morning, I found myself at Vera Wang.

If you had asked me before that appointment if I was going to be a Vera Wang bride, the answer would have been an immediate no. In my head, Vera was princess-y. Poofy. Very BRIDE. Basically the opposite of the cool, unexpected thing I was looking for.

I walked in, looked at the racks and thought: Great. This will be quick.

My best friend Liv was with me. We were drinking champagne and both thoroughly enjoying my PTO, so honestly, even if we accomplished nothing, it was a good day.

Then the stylist disappeared into the back and emerged carrying a complete wild card.

Liv and I looked at each other.

What is happening right now?

It was nothing like what I had asked for. Nothing I would have pulled off the rack. But at this point, why not? Worst-case scenario, we’d get a good photo and have a laugh.

I put it on.

I walked out of the fitting room.

I looked in the mirror.

Oh.

I had never seen a dress like it before. And somehow, despite it being the exact opposite of what I thought I wanted, it was so me.

We took photos. Videos. Front. Back. Side. Walking. Standing. And then we left.

On the ride home, we kept talking about it.

That dress is insane. But there is NO WAY that’s my wedding dress.

Famous last words.

Because after Vera, every single dress I tried on became a comparison to that dress.

I would go to another appointment, put something on, look in the mirror and think about Vera. In early September 2025, I went back. This time with my mom, Liv, Hallie, the whole gang. I put the dress on again, and we all just knew.

She was the one.

Deposit down.

Once the main dress was handled, my brain immediately moved on to the rest of the weekend. For those looks, I wanted pieces no one else would have.

Which, naturally, meant vintage.

I started researching vintage bridal stores, DMing resellers, and somehow, I managed to get squeezed into an appointment with SaraNicoleVintage while she was doing a trunk show in NYC.

I left with the most insane vintage Ralph Lauren dress.

Then came the after-party.

I am a pants girl.

The amount of pants in my closet is actually a problem. So there was never really a world in which I was going to end my wedding night in a dress.

I wanted pants and I searched everywhere.

Nothing.

Eventually, I got connected to Alexis Levan, an incredible custom bridal designer on the Upper West Side. I showed up at her studio with a folder full of references and a million ideas.

Within minutes, I felt like she got it.

Deposit down. We started designing.

A few weeks ago, I had my first prototype fitting and…holy shit.

That’s all I’m saying for now.

I genuinely cannot wait for everyone to see it.

I started this whole process convinced I knew exactly what I wanted. I had the neckline. The silhouette. The references. The entire imaginary wardrobe.

And almost none of what I ended up choosing looks like what I originally had in mind.

That’s the problem with trying so hard to find something “unique.” The more you scroll and save and search for inspiration, the more everything starts to look exactly the same. For me, finding pieces that actually felt original meant being open to things I never would have picked in the first place.

Which, in retrospect, feels much more like me anyway.
