East Coast.

My roots are East Coast preppy.  And when I have no energy, I go back to my roots — crisp oxfords, loafers, gold jewelry, dark wash denim, tortoise.  All the basics.  Below, a few classics I’d like to add to my collection:

+Striped linen top ($79);

+Cartier tank bracelet ($6,000);

+Tortoise specs ($95);

+Cashmere sweater ($198);

+Horn ring ($650);

+Brown leather tote ($428);

+Tod’s loafers ($425);

+Jules Smith gold-and-pearl necklace ($45 — what a steal!);

+Striped dress (Sea, $425);

+Monogrammed earrings ($35);

+Tortoise shades (Illesteva, $177);

+Fendi cuff ($353);

+Sophie Hulme tote ($850).

Crisp.
