What comes after jeans? This is one among the most daunting questions to ascend on someone who seeks the ease of a uniform style of dress because jeans are the pants of the everyman.

And they afford the promise of confidence if you and when you can find your fit.

Today’s Monday Memory returns us to September 29, 2016. William and Kate were on their second tour of Canada, this time in the Yukon Territory, among other stops. The Yukon Territory is very far north, on par with Alaska, and all the pictures depicted both the frontier nature of the region and the beauty. It was a wonderful tour, if you did not follow it live at the time.

Rebranding "rut" into "personal style"

This is more of a lesson in proportions and layering than anything.

We were driving in the countryside of Spanish Spring, and the warmth in the air felt like a memory of home. I always feel this way when I go down this parallel. We had chosen to spend our honeymoon in Andalusia because I wanted to see the Alhambra, this place after which my mother had (very modestly) named her own house in Corsica.

I want to share something that I think could help so, so, so many women out there. It’s a story that truly needs to be shared. It’s a story about fibroids.

Sunday April 14th, 12:50 PM: Get dressed and to go meet my friends Matt and Yolanda who are visiting for Salone (ps Yolanda has the best travel substack!!) Weather is currently confusing, so wrapping all of my layers around my waist, which I like as it brings a new drop-waist / 1920’s silhouette to this dress that I wore a lot last summer (and just pulled out of storage).

On one late summer Tuesday last year, I was at Marin Country Mart with Ethaney trying to kill time as we waited for the blonde hostess at Hog Island Oyster to call our names. We looked out of place among the rest of the parties waiting: Real Housewives of Marin with their Hermes Kellys,
