This Dries Van Noten bag is gorgeous and packs really well.
I’ve been wearing these kinds of pillbox-style hats for the past year and a half, and I plan to wear this gorgeous Gigi Burris crushed velvet one to go and dine at Suvretta's Grand Restaurant.
These are an essential, with a really cool Bottega-esque feel and a good rubber grip sole which is perfect for the snowy, icy weather.

I love mismatched earrings, so I'll wear this gorgeous trillion diamond piece on one ear.
Wearing these on my upper ear is always a winner.

I get lots of questions about sunglasses—these are super classic, I love them.
I have an archival version of this piece with silver hardware, and it's just a great accessory to have with you.
This is my current favourite scent. If you like notes of amber, musk, tobacco, something quite woody, you'll love this.
