  Shawl (Aritzia, sold out)

Hi, friends. I'm glad you're here!

Before we get into things, I want to touch base.

The last few weeks have been crazy for me — between work and travel, I've been stretched a little thin. I haven't had the time (or energy) to commit to posting as regularly as I'd like. 

#BloggingBlues are real!

Thankfully, I'm starting to transition back into a "normal" routine and I'm welcoming the stability with open arms. More "life updates" to come in another post later this week!

A few weeks ago I popped up to NYC to visit a friend for a quick weekend.

Whenever I'm packing for travel, I try to stick to an all-neutral wardrobe. If you've been around for a while, you've probably noticed that I tend to reach for neutrals for everyday wear anyways, but even more while traveling.  Neutrals are appropriate no matter the occasion — and the versatile color pallet helps me to utilize pieces efficiently, so that I can pair any two items I pack together.

I've raved about this pair of white denim many times here on Keynotes (like here, here and here!). I've said it once (or maybe a handful of times) but I'll say it again. I love these pants! And for someone who really doesn't like pants in general, this is a bold statement. 

A flattering pair of fully-opaque white denim at this price point? I'll take two.

And I know I'm very, very (like, very) late to the game here, but while in NYC, I stumbled into Aritzia. How is it possible that I'm just discovering this gem of a retailer?! Think of Urban Outfitters meets Zara...but a touch more upscale. After taking two steps in the store, I was instantly in neutral, basic, flowy silhouette heaven. This grey sweater I'm wearing is from Aritzia. Do yourself a favor and pop over to their website — you won't regret it (but your wallet might, haha!)
