If you’ve been following my “What I Loved Wearing” series recently, I have been getting a ton of wear out of this practical and luxe Romy Pebble Leather Tote from Tory Burch. The soft gray is so elegant and unexpected, and the perfect transitional neutral; it plays beautifully with spring pastels but also works with a more wintry palette. I also find its forgiving size highly practical in my life, whether I’m running to a meeting or schlepping carpool snacks.
Below, some spring bag inspo via Pinterest —
And a round up of some great transitional bags that caught my eye below. You might recall I own the Mansur Gavriel Cabas in a dark atlantic green and she’s a perfect everyday bag — carries a lot and so luxe-looking. I’m personally eyeing this Dragon Diffusion or this cute Pam Munson style, but this under-$200 style from Madewell is a great option for less. (Quince has something similar for $149!)

It’s me, Hi. I’m the problem it’s me. I’m back with another question… taking long flight to Paris in 4 weeks! Last year we took the kids to London- 11 hour flight, and I wore a cashmere quince zip cardigan and pants- super comfortable but I got hot! Looking for ultra comfortable, stylish outfit for the flight .I want to feel like I am wearing pajamas but look put together ( and I’m traveling with three teenagers and husband who doesn’t travel well. Varley? If so, what pieces? I have traveled domestically in Vuori hoodie and joggers, super comfortable. but I got cold. Any thoughts appreciated!
Hmm. What about doing a Frank and Eileen fleece set? I find them warmer than the performance/athleisure materials but cooler than cashmere. This one is my favorite because I find the pieces easy to style on their own as well as separately —

I also do love Varley and think it is supremely comfortable and also very polished/luxe looking but wonder if you’ll find it cold like the Vuori? Hm. My suggestion if you go Varley is:

I love that sweatshirt because it covers the rear…very flattering! And also looks great over leggings.

PS – You’re never a problem, Claire! Keep the questions coming. Could talk about this alllll day!
Many thanks!!! You are amazing. Feel free to hit me up with any Pediatric questions!
Soo I tried the F and E Catherine pant, not a great fit on me- I’m super short 4’10. I’m going to go for the Varley!
Appreciate you!
Ahh OK!! I’ll keep my eyes/ears out for other petite friendly travel options too.
