Zero frump.
Excellent for the wilting heat that is the subway in NYC (anytime, but especially in the summer). Crisp. Modest. But not frumpy.

The Phoebe Blazer
Favorite Daughter
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 3"
Collarless!
Substantial, textured will blend. Unfussy. Easy to wear. Long enough to cover it all but short enough not to worry about a damp hem. Deep pockets. Unnecessary belt.

Collarless Cardigan Coat
Club Monaco
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 3"
Situationally perfect.
I’m ashamed by how happy it made me to carry this to breakfast downstairs for a hotel breakfast. Enough space for a phone, lipstick, nail file, room key. Unfussy. Tidy. Almost sculptural. Textured.

Part wool chore jacket…
…the rest is pure lark. Mutton sleeves. High low hem. Massive front (but no on seam) pockets. Easy to wear. Took me Burlington for twenty four hours that included a sauna and plunges into Lake Champlain and then to Bainbridge Island for a weekend of BIMA events.

I loved it but did not wear it.
And I should have: cheery color, easy cut (sized up, as per usual), sweeping length. Immaculate Staud cut. Maybe I rented at the wrong time of year? So. I loved it, but did not wear it.

BLANKNYC
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 8

Sometimes, we need a little comfort.
In uncertain times, I wanted something easy, cozy, utilitarian, unchallenging. Pretty cotton. East cut. Perfect weight. For indoor pursuits (watching election results, helping with safety plans) and out (community fridge visits, library trips, walks in the park, community bookshop meetings).

Quilted Collarless Jacket
DONNI.
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 7"
Textured. Layered. Oversized.
Not for blending in. My plan is to wear it over a wool shirtdress to see a revival of Our Town (from a back row aisle); Anidimar (from a balcony box); and to a friend’s new restaurant (Pasta Night, I Brooklyn). Possibly all this week. Warm-enough. Easy to shrug in and out of. Impractical-looking-but-versatile.

Loved these so much I bought them.
