#1: Reebok Classic Leather Sneakers
These are my go-to white sneakers! And if you know me, you know I have a LOT of pairs of white sneakers. I honestly just always grab these though 🙈
They are the comfiest pair I know so I always choose these if I’m going to have a long day running errands around the city or something with a lot of walking. There’s no break-in time at all – just comfy goodness from the start!
I love the all-white design with the gum sole on the bottom – it adds the perfect amount of color and interest and the gum color looks good with anything! Wear these shoes with jeans, skirts, literally anything. They can easily be styled up or down. And the retro vibes are super stylish. They run TTS.

#2: Everlane Wide Leg Crop Pants
Best pants ever, honestly. I basically just wear these or jeans like every single day to work… I have them in this color above (called Ochre), black, and white (called Bone), and I make use of all three colors very well. Looking to add another color soon! …maybe the Surplus color? or maybe Navy…
The material is fairly thick and feels really high-quality, and the high-waist holds everything in – thus making them super flattering. I’d say TTS but if you’re unsure or in-between sizes, then size down.
The crop hits me perfectly and these look excellent with booties, but seriously all shoes! Check out my post about styling these pants different ways here.

#3: Ray-Ban Icons Retro Sunglasses (RB3447)
These were my go-tos all year – and continue to be! I tend to obsess over a pair of sunnies and pretty much exclusively wear them (and ignore all my other sunnies) until I become bored of them and switch to another pair for a while or buy a new pair. These have been going strong since I bought them around the beginning of 2019, which is a long time for me to stick to a single pair of sunglasses!
I love their classic but retro look, and I think the shape is really flattering on many different face shapes. I feel like they add a cool-girl element to literally ANY outfit. I’m wearing the standard 53mm but they also make these in a smaller version of 50mm found here.

#4: Mansur Gavriel Mini Mini Bucket Bag
I want to preface this by saying this was actually a Poshmark find (thus I did not pay even close to full-price – gotta love Poshmark!) But after using it for a couple years, I would gladly pay full-price knowing how much use it gets in my life.
Even though it’s pretty small, its bucket shape allows for a lot of stuffing if needed. I’ve fit small umbrellas and water bottles (along with my essentials) with no problem. I also love how the red interior makes it so much easier to find things!
As far as looks go, it’s both chic and adorable. The black leather is super durable and sleek-looking, and the leather bow is the perfect detail to add a little interest. It’s one classy lil bag!

#5: J.Crew Daphne Topcoat
I’m SO sorry that this coat is like completely sold out, but if you’re interested in it – definitely bookmark the page and keep checking because J.Crew frequently restocks this style. It’s just so popular it sells out a lot!
This topcoat has become such a good buy, I am honestly surprised how much I ended up loving it as I remember being hesitant about the purchase at first. Something to note is that it isn’t lined and it is wool so there is definitely an itch factor – however I have some of THE most sensitive skin out there and I have grown to love the texture and it really doesn’t bother me at all. The only thing I don’t recommend is wearing short sleeves or sleeveless tops underneath because it might be too itchy for that much bare skin, but I still do it sometimes and it’s fine for me.
The coat is the perfect medium weight but with a lot of warmth factor! It’s made out of boiled wool, which means it’s more tightly woven so it’s warmer without being bulkier. Its classic silhouette combined with the raw edges make it the perfect updated-classic piece that would be a great addition to anyone’s closet/style.
But I haven’t even gotten to my most favorite part about it: the color. This coat gets comments almost everywhere I go and I definitely attribute it to the color. Of course a lot of the compliments are “oh, I love that color!” But most comments are just general towards liking the coat overall. However, I think the color played a big role in them noticing the coat in the first place. It’s very unique and striking. It’s not quite a mustard but also not a camel – I personally consider the color as like a “gold.” J.Crew calls it “warm caramel.” Whatever it is, it’s very eye-catching while also being basically a neutral – so it’s a major win-win for this minimalist! 🤓
I have this in a size 6. I’d say it runs a little big but get your true size so you can layer underneath comfortably. A size 4 also fit me pretty well but I stuck with 6 for that reason. And btw, it comes in a lot of other colors besides the Warm Caramel. I also love the Icy Mountain Blue.
