thanks for joining me today because


0:10

we're going to talk about what's in my


0:12

closet this week I know one thing we've


0:14

talked about before is this color green


0:16

that is so in and beautiful right now


0:19

okay so I'm gonna pull the pop in my


0:21

sweater I'm going to pull the pop in


0:22

these shoes these are from Jeffrey


0:24

Campbell they're a very easy on loafer


0:26

okay and typically I think we think of a


0:28

loafers like that's a fall shoe we got a


0:30

spring shoe for you too here okay so


0:32

it's got a great little gold detailing


0:34

on here which looks very high-end and I


0:37

love a soft loafer so that again easy on


0:39

easy off and with all those bunions that


0:42

I have because of my age they're just


0:44

really formed my feet really nicely and


0:45

are super super jump the jeans that I'm


0:48

wearing today are from Citizens of


0:49

Humanity they're actually a trouser


0:51

jeans so a lot of you are adding trouser


0:52

jeans into your wardrobe I'm going to


0:55

uncuff it just so you can see it for one


0:56

second they do run a little bit longer


0:58

which is great it's a 33 inch inseam so


1:01

if it's a trouser that look that you're


1:03

looking for this is the way to go


1:04

because you can also wear like an


1:06

elevated shoe with it maybe a wedge or


1:08

something and get that nice clean line


1:09

or you can do what I did and get a


1:12

really really big cuff on it which I am


1:14

obsessed with this whole look is really


1:16

good for if you have to go into office


1:18

if you're on Zoom calls or whatever a


1:21

Blazer always looks really professional


1:22

like back to the jeans they're because


1:24

they're so soft and comfy when you're


1:26

sitting on those Zoom calls they're


1:28

really comfortable you're not feeling


1:29

like


1:30

jammed in there and really like having


1:32

to suck it in they're very comfortable


1:33

very soft so back to the Blazer so a lot


1:36

of times in Spring we want that extra


1:38

little layer on there we're tired of the


1:40

big heavy coats but we still need a


1:42

little something to like just cut the


1:44

breeze a little bit a Blazer I love


1:46

again this one is by every it's a


1:48

lightweight linen love me a lightweight


1:51

linen because with the white it's nice


1:53

and crispy the color again works so well


1:55

heading into spring the fabrication is


1:58

light you can layer things underneath it


2:00

and it always looks very professional no


2:02

matter what you have going on so just


2:03

again elevates that every day that we've


2:06

talked about doing before popping the


2:07

collar which I always do and I always


2:09

push up the sleeves just a little bit


2:11

again to add movement into your whole


2:13

outfit underneath I layered this great


2:15

little v-neck t-shirt it's got a little


2:18

bit of a cap sleeve on here too nice


2:20

little detailing right here around the


2:22

v-neck this one is by frame so I like it


2:25

it's a little bit oversized which I


2:26

actually enjoy because it keeps it look


2:28

from looking too like


2:30

um business and corporate and gives a


2:32

little more softer feel throwing this


2:34

little sweater over top on this one's my


2:36

spiritual gangster throwing this one


2:38

over top balances out your color with


2:41

your green on the bottom and again


2:42

balancing the green up on the top but it


2:44

also gives you the option as your day


2:45

goes on if when you're done with that


2:47

Zoom call you want to shed the Blazer


2:49

you can easily put the sweater over top


2:51

I'm kind of obsessed with this little


2:53

layered set here this one is by love AJ


2:55

I'm going to tell you it's two necklaces


2:57

they come together you can wear them


2:59

separate or you can layer them together


3:01

which of course is a look right now that


3:03

I really love because the jewelry really


3:04

puts everything together head to toe as


3:06

you're ready to go out the door I wanted


3:08

to show you the sweater on its own with


3:10

just the denim again a little more


3:12

casual look or as your day goes on and


3:14

you want to shed the Blazer you can pop


3:16

on the sweater you can mix different


3:18

Hues I'm giving you permission to do


3:19

that okay I just wanted to point that


3:21

out it doesn't have to be matchy matchy


3:23

they just are complementary to each


3:25

other which is a great look as well I'm


3:27

going to share with you a little bit


3:28

about the typical day that I have at


3:30

work I do like in that last outfit I do


3:32

have moments where I have zoom calls


3:34

where I have meetings that I need to be


3:35

at where I do want to look a little more


3:37

professional then I have the days when I


3:39

just gotta get down and dirty and get my


3:42

hands dirty and really have fun with


3:43

merchandising which is what I do and


3:45

there's a lot of walking there's a lot


3:46

of moving around the stores there's a


3:48

lot of up and down and lifting


3:49

mannequins and all the things which I


3:51

love to do and during those days I need


3:53

to have an outfit that looks great but


3:55

it's also incredibly comfortable this is


3:58

what's in my closet right now these are


3:59

by papilio this is a great shoe because


4:02

look at how the platform on this and


4:04

again super comfortable you can wrap


4:06

these around whatever forms to your foot


4:08

whatever's most comfortable it's got the


4:09

little foot pad underneath that again


4:11

gives you that support it's a great shoe


4:14

that you can wear professionally like in


4:16

in my role I can easily wear that to


4:18

work but I can also use it casual as the


4:20

day goes on you've seen me wear these


4:22

before these are some favorites of mine


4:23

it's not just the cut of these which I


4:26

love a little wide like these are the


4:28

Meg wide leg Longs by cut it's the patch


4:31

Pockets that I love it's also the


4:33

fabrication because it is a little bit


4:35

softer denim it's not quite so stiff so


4:37

as I'm going up and down on my knees and


4:40

and rising up on ladders and all the


4:41

things it just moves right with me and


4:43

again so comfortable love that


4:45

silhouette especially for those of you


4:46

that are tall you will love these logs


4:48

another Trend that's really happening


4:50

right now is the terry cloth Trend I'm


4:52

leaning really into that with this great


4:54

little polo shirt this one is by ever


4:56

Eve it's got a little snap front here


4:58

and again not just on my crispy white


5:00

collared shirts but any shirt that has a


5:03

collar I'm going to pop that just a


5:04

little bit because it adds a little bit


5:06

of Dimension and also makes it look a
