Where to Shop
I’m often asked what brands I like and where I like to buy clothing. This is not a short list I can rattle off in a conversation (as you can see below). After years of changing tastes and honing my personal style, these brands remain in the wardrobe. The brands and the items listed represent actual clothing I own, wear, and recommend. There are no referral links and no brand can buy or gift their way on to my list.
Most of these brands have e-commerce available, others you’ll want to search for online retailers that stock them. And if you get the chance to visit a brand’s flagship store, I highly suggest it as you’ll be able to see a wider selection of their product. I’ve also included a list of boutique shops I think you should check out. I’ll update this page as needed.
Happy shopping!
