What to Wear for ___

Pretty or Huh? This floral-embroidered midi is pure romance. Depending on your personality, you may want to cut the sweetness with some serious personality, lean into the details, go classic… Strictly speaking, etiquette leans toward fabric clutches (like satin or silk) for formal or garden party settings. Leather works too — just make sure it feels refined and seasonally appropriate. Beaded and embellished clutches also work. I also think you should just throw etiquette out the window and treat others the way you want to be treated. My personal pick? I love the French Fries and I’m sorry for making you cringe. Post polls comparing clutches you own to these clutches to see which “wins” if you’re not sure. No matter what you do, love it. 📌 Pin This These clutches are playful statement pieces. From french fry cartons to a retro boombox and a cupcake, they’re more conversation starters than classic accessories — perfect for adding a quirky twist to an elegant look. They’re also perfect for introverts because they’re conversation starters. 📌 Pin This These clutches are pure elegance with a touch of unexpected shine. From the quilted gold classic to the sculptural metallic statement and dreamy pastel satin, they strike that perfect balance of ladylike but modern. 📌 Pin This These clutches are like wearable bouquets — floral, ornate, and unapologetically romantic. They make a statement without losing their ladylike charm (French Fries I’m looking at you, even though you are my favorite). 📌 Pin This Look $995 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $5995 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $5995 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $1995 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $4995 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $4500 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $1750 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $2850 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $35.89 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $31.99 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $31.99 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $29.99 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $32.99 Take me there 📌 Pin This Look $33 Take me there

Why Your Best Style Is All About You Over the past 20+ years of helping women find that aha moment — whether it’s cleaning out their closets, restyling what they already own, or finding a few new pieces — I’ve never met a single body that couldn’t have that transformative moment. And I’ve never met two bodies that were exactly alike. Realizing that truth over and over again has taught me something invaluable: every shape and size can have that wow moment when they finally see themselves differently. To get there, we usually have to forget about body types, ignore fashion rules and trends, and embrace the body we have right now — whether it’s a transitional phase or not. Your Proportions Are One of a Kind Here’s a quick example: I’m 5’7”, but I wear petites on the bottom and can wear talls on top. That doesn’t sound “normal,” right? The usual wisdom says petites are for anyone under 5’4”, but my inseam? It’s a petite-friendly 25 inches — almost toddler length. If I listened to conventional advice, I’d feel like something was wrong with me. But the truth is, it’s just who I am. It’s never going to change, and I wouldn’t want it to. It’s a reminder to stop comparing yourself to others and instead see how something works on you. That’s why the side-by-side comparisons in the Adjust My Crown app are so powerful. You’re not looking at how jeans fit someone else — you’re looking at how two styles fit you. Compare two jean leg options — on your body. Compare two denim shades — on your shape. Compare two rises to see which one hits your waist just right — today, on today’s body. The key is not to worry about how something looks on someone else or what they recommend. Take every bit of advice with a grain of salt, and focus on how it looks and feels on you. That’s it. That’s all that really matters. If you love how you feel and look, that confidence will naturally follow. Why I Don’t Post My Own Outfits I’m here to support you — to curate thoughtful options, help you maximize cost-per-wear, and guide you through closet cleanouts. But I’m not here to model looks on my own body because it doesn’t help you find your best self. I’ll give you ideas and tips, but they’re meant for you to consider through the lens of your own body. Sure, I’m not a fan of being in front of the camera, but that’s not the real reason — it just feels irrelevant. What I wear or how it looks on me won’t help you discover your own style. Be skeptical of any recommended “finds” — even mine. Always ask yourself: Does this feel good on me? Does it fit my proportions and lifestyle right now? I’m here for you. If you have challenges or requests, send them my way. Let’s figure it out together. Download the Adjust My Crown app and start comparing clothes on your own body. Because your proportions aren’t the problem. They’re the secret. And remember: always be a thoughtful skeptic, even of my picks. Your body is one of one. Your style should be too.

You know I can’t shake the cost-per-wear concept… I blame it on majoring in Economics? I just can’t handle the thought of not wearing things often. Loving them is the key I think? Spending $20 and wearing a shirt once is the same as wearing a shirt 10 times that cost $200… except the initial outlay is very different. I get it. I do. I just want you to think of how to rewear things, because you love them and love how you feel in them! This isn’t social media where a rewear is shameful, this is real life, and that’s the best. Real clouds, real friends, real hands to hold… The Masters is hard to dress for because it’s so long and boring, and the weather so dicey. Yeah, I just called it boring. Sorry. Changing accessories totally transforms the look and feel of the dress and makes it feel intentional and fresh. This bright dress is so beautifully detailed. The fabric is casual enough that you could wear it day to day, with anything from tennis shoes to Birkenstocks. The design is special enough to be dressed up easily. This dress is stunning. The shape could be worn anywhere, for any occasion. The fit is comfortable enough to be worn all day. It’s a special dress to be worn on repeat.

Here’s the thing about summer tennis shoes: they have to pull their weight (cost-per-wear, I’m looking at you. I can’t help it. I majored in Economics). They need to go with everything you wear on a random Tuesday — whether that’s denim and a tee, a cotton midi, or leggings and a hoodie. This isn’t the moment for a one-outfit wonder. If you’re in the market for a new pair, do a little styling homework first. Start taking quick snaps of what you wear every day — nothing fancy, just mirror pics or outfit selfies and post them on Adjust My Crown. Save them in a Collection called Spring Weather or 60° Feels Like 72 or What I Actually Wear. When you’re tempted to buy something new, scroll through that album and see if the shoes you’re eyeing work with what’s already in your rotation. And a quick note for anyone spending time at dusty ballfields, playgrounds, or anywhere that’s more dirt than pavement: skip white soles. Even the cutest pair will look worn out fast when the tread turns that muddy beige that never fully scrubs off. The cost-per-wear just isn’t worth it — even if the sticker price is lower. Not sure which pair to commit to? Use your own closet as your focus group. Post polls. Compare new options against the sneakers you wore last summer. If the current contender isn’t winning? Keep scrolling. The takeaway? Choose smart, wear often, and let your shoes earn their keep. You deserve a pair that can get dressed in less than five and get on with your day. (P.S. The Louis Vuitton Sneakerina shoes will sell out fast I’m guessing) P.S. The slip on Golden Goose style looks great, and feels great, and I find myself wearing them all day, even when I’m at home, BUT, the tongue flops down so they don’t slip on without a little fussing over them. I don’t love that aspect of them because I like things EASY, so I thought I’d mention it.

There’s a certain art to dressing for Paris. You want to look polished but not precious, elegant without overthinking it. And when your itinerary includes everything from museum-hopping to long lunches in Saint-Germain, your shoes need to work overtime. I’m always shocked when I see how many miles I’ve walked in Paris. I LOVE France! Enter: the chicest travel upgrade you didn’t know you needed. White (or any color!) sneakers — simple, classic, always in the suitcase. But this time? They’re getting the Crown Check Approved treatment with a quick, clever twist: Hermès silk shoelaces. Yes, Hermès. On your sneakers. It’s the kind of high-low styling that French girls do best (like a Rolex laced onto a pair of Nikes in St Tropez…but really). A flash of silk peeking out from your laces gives that effortless-meets-elegance feel, like you might’ve just thrown it together. These laces come from repurposed Hermès silk scarves. Think of them as jewelry for your feet — but better, because you can walk all day in them. Cost-per-wear? Off the charts. You’re still wearing your go-to sneakers, but with a twist that feels très spécial. I’ve picked out some solid tennis shoes, but wouldn’t hesitate to add the Hermes laces to shoe. Add them to your existing Adidas or New Balance or whatever your go-to is these days. The more personality that shows, the better. Love whatever you’re wearing and it’ll magically work… I promise.

Old Navy Jeans, Veronica Beard tee combined with a bag that costs several times what the outfit costs? Why not. I love a statement accessory because I can be lazy with out clothes and I love high low, because real life. Each of these bags could be worn SO.MANY.WAYS and it brings the COST PER WEAR (my favorite way to think about purchases) wayyyyy down to reality (I mean “reality” might be stretching it, but you know what I mean… you can justify it-ish). The crochet lady like bag could be worn from crossbody baseball parade to lunch birthday party to dinner at the restaurant you barely got reservations for. The totes can be worn anywhere from the grocery store to a resort. And they’d pack well because they’re “flexible” if that makes sense and smoosh down. The suede bags at the bottom are DELICIOUS and drape so well in person. Every one of these bags take an outfit from eh, cute to wow, interesting…
