Favorites of 2019

Sale PSA: Nike Flyknit 2s, now $75 (these are my favorite actual sneaker right now), a simple silk shell from Everlane, now $53, metallic slingbacks from Ganni, now $168, classic navy mary jane pumps from Manolo Blahnik, now 60% off, and a gorgeous gray Verrou just showed up on Fashionphile well under retail!

Today – I’m sharing some of my favorites of 2019! It was actually quite hard this year because I had quite a few (unfortunately I blew past my goal of trying to only buy 25 items a year). So here’s just a sample:

Elizabeth Suzann Polly Dress. I love easy midi dresses and this was one of my most worn so I had to include it! Even though I haven’t worn it for a few months as it’s been cold. The linen gauze is my favorite material for it – basically impervious to wrinkles as it is wrinkled already. My favorite easy dress, I like it so much I ordered another in another color.

Hermes Lindy Bag: (decently priced options here, and here). Not the most exciting of bags as it is black with palladium hardware BUT as I’ve been using the bag, I’ve realized that I really love the Lindy style. It’s so easy and useful and I’ve used mine a ton. It’s a workhorse. I am tempted to add another color one day. Love it.

Nisolo Ama Mule: My favorite shoe from Nisolo. The most comfortable and chic. I feel like this must be a popular style for them too as it never goes on sale.

Baggu Belt Bag (otherwise known as the fanny pack). If you know me in “real” life, you’ve probably seen me wearing this. I have two! I wear mine ALL THE TIME. Cost per wear is in the pennies already (because it’s a $48 bag to start with).

Van Cleef Mini Frivole Earrings. I feel like I’m repeating myself. Is it super blogger to keep saying, “I WEAR THESE ALL THE TIME”? But I do! So versatile, not too flashy, but with *some* glamour – adore these and if you’re looking for a pair of everyday wearable earrings that are very comfortable (with secure pushbacks) – I highly recommend these. When I travel, I usually am just wearing this pair.

Everlane Boss Boots. I’m sure you’ve seen these in a lot of posts. I really love my Everlane Day Boots and so got these as well so that I would have an option for rainier days. Actually if I had to only pick one baby, it would still be the Day Boots. But I got those in 2018 and the Boss Boots in 2019 and they are quite close in my heart.

Skincare honorable mention: Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream. This was a gift from a friend. I’m really waffling on recommending this because while I do love it, I also think it’s overpriced. I’m not sure if I would have ever tried it myself if I hadn’t been given it by someone who knows I’m skincare inept. That being said..when it runs out I’ll probably refill. Unless one of you can let me know of a great dupe, that is. There’s also a smaller version if you want to try it out. I don’t know. But my skin has been feeling great ever since using this.

Okay! These were some of my favorites of 2019 – what about YOURS?
