Tuckernuck Striped Cardigan (This very similar crewneck sweater is great, too.) / Hudson Barbara Jeans (So soft! Updated with a raw hem.) / The Softest Ballet Flats (An investment, but so worth it. Ridiculously easy on the feet, and the straps prevents your heel from slipping out. TTS.) / Favorite J.Crew T-Shirt / Naghedi Large St. Barth’s Tote / Sunglasses / Diamond Bar Necklace

After quite the depressing stretch, I’m re-inspired to put a little effort into my outfits. 😜 Come March and April in Chicago, I’m so beaten down by the winter it’s hard to find the motivation. “Whatever’s clean and cozy,” is usually my motto. But welcome, May!

Here are some details on one of my favorite looks this year:

Tuckernuck Striped Cardigan: What a gorgeous piece! It’s 100-percent cotton, so it’s perfect for spring and summer—but it’s also the most luxurious cotton, and extremely soft to the touch. I went down a size as it tends to run a little big. Love those brass buttons! (Btw: This very similar crewneck sweater is great, too.)

Hudson Barbara Jeans: So soft! I’ve had these jeans since Emma was born, but they continue to come back—and now they’re updated with a raw hem. (Love that but can’t justify another pair, haha.) They’re definitely the softest pair of jeans I own, and the pair I reach for when I want to be in sweatpants but can’t. 😉 True to size and a bargain considering how soft yet substantial they are!

The Softest Ballet Flats: I guess soft is the theme of this post. These flats are an investment, yes, but so worth it. They’re unstructured and wildly soft, making them ridiculously easy on the feet, and the straps prevents your heel from slipping out. TTS, and they come in tons of colors!

Naghedi Large St. Barth’s Tote: I love this tote because I feel like everyone doesn’t have it, and it’s also considerably more affordable than the LV and Goyard options. I should note here that the straps stretch, and I comfortably fit it under my arm! I would not own this bag if it weren’t for that, because I value being hands-free as a mom. :)
