I love this. A coworker recently showed me pics of her wedding, and I said “oh my gosh, your dress is so Carolyn Bessette! I love it!” And she said “who?” And I was shocked (she’s similar age as me, 38). So I started asking all our other coworkers and NO ONE KNEW who I was talking about. Not even when I said “um she was married to JFK Jr?!?!l” did they know. Wild. Anyways, I’m glad you got the reference (I knew you would haha).

Haha wow, that's shocking!! My mom was obsessed with the Kennedys when I was growing up, especially Jackie, and she loved Carolyn's style, so I feel like that definitely influenced me from a young age haha

For a lived in t-shirt you might like Sold Out NYC's version. I bought it before we moved but unfortunately didn't get the right size so I didn't have enough time to exchange for the correct size. It's one item, I'll for sure be being once I'm back. It is not sheer, also not stark white.

Also, glad to read your Heaven Mayhem review! I've been eyeing their red stone for a while.

Maria this was fab! Going to check out that t shirt brand as it looks so good on you. Also love the Heaven Mayhem necklace! I have the version Agmes makes and it’s one of my go-tos for adding an extra something to every look. So many great finds here! Xx

Thanks, Sogole! I love the Agmes version, too! I feel like for that price, it's definitely a bit more classic and something you'll hold on to. x

I would invest on the Elsa Peretti necklace and earrings . Frank Gehry x Tiffany are gorgeous. You can find both on the Real Real at outstanding prices. Of all my purchases, I have no regrets with fine jewelry. Keep me posted on that please. I like supima cotton Uniqlo tees.

That's a great tip - thank you!! I wasn't aware of the Frank Gehry collection with Tiffany's and just looked it up, and the pieces are beautiful! I've also heard good things about Uniqlo tees but haven't tried them yet. Thank you for reading and all the recos! x

I’m looking forward to reading more of your account. Uniqlo tees are under $20!

A forever fan of these posts. I do love the Margo tee BUT I got my first one off Posh and my second as a gift so I am thrilled for you to report back on a tee that isn’t eye watering in price.

Also, the Freja bag made me drool the first time you posted and it, guess what, I still feel the same way!!

I always trust your recos and even though it's pricey, I feel like the hype around the Margo must be worth it! After getting the Flore Flore tank (which was also pricey!) I'm a lot more open to investing in the Margo one day... but also, maybe I'll checkout resale sites first, like you. As for the Freja bag, I'm really in love with it and already want another. x
