I believe in splurging on the pieces you’ll wear daily — not the special-occasion dress that collects dust after one night. As I’ve been packing for Paris Fashion Week and styling my Queens this fall, I see the same truth over and over: the best investments are in elevated essentials you can live in.

BOOTS WITH POWER — My clients are loving Veronica Beard tall boots for their perfect mix of style and comfort. For booties I invested in this gorgeous brown pair by Anina Bing. I also treated myself to Khaite boots, a splurge, yes, but my pair from last year carried me through countless looks and still feels fresh.

ELEVATED CASHMERE — Anine Bing’s cashmere crew sweater is the epitome of effortless chic. Luxe, versatile, and timeless, it’s the sweater you’ll keep reaching for.

THE FALL STAPLE TRENCH — The trench is the ultimate fall essential, but this season it got an upgrade. This Boss cropped trench in soft leather is everything. My clients are loving it — and I treated myself to one for Paris Fashion Week. It’s so chic, versatile, and modern. Imagine it layered over a dress or skirt with boots… so chic and effortless.

THE SHOW STOPPING SUIT — I recently styled a client in this incredible suit and couldn’t resist purchasing one for myself. I can’t wait to show you how I’ll be styling it at Paris Fashion Week — it’s bold, chic, and a piece that commands attention in every room.

MALKARI Jewelry — The Everyday EssentialNo wardrobe is complete without jewelry that carries your energy. The Oren Earrings and Eliana Necklace, are almost gone! Every outfit of mine — whether in Paris or Chicago — includes at least one of them (and often all at once). These power pieces are what transform elevated essentials into unforgettable looks.
