Confession: I am addicted to jackets. Bombers, peplums, capes: you name it, and I have lusted after it. Lately my heart belongs to the long boyfriend blazer---and no one does it better than Smythe. Wouldn't this heathery gray one pair perfectly with an understated sweater dress and spring's softest pastels?
If I still worked in an office, this black tux-y piece and feminine shorts would be my new uniform. Cobalt contrasted with black feels fresh and unexpected. Add a fun fringed scarf, then keep it classy with low black pumps.
I firmly believe that you can never have too many leather jackets; I'm at five and counting, and this cropped bad boy would make a darling #6. Channel biker granny with a mix of tough and sweet, and revisit a blast from the past with a bucket bag---this season's hottest handbag silhouette.
The best news? Smythe has branched out beyond jackets and now makes a tasty array of blouses and button-downs. Preppy stripes get hip when mixed with polka dots in the same palette. Complete the rockabilly vibe with a swipe of NARS pencil in Cruella and gloss in Bloodwork; it's my patented combo for spring's perfect red lip!

I'm definitely a jeans girl. Lately my idea of dressing up is throwing on a black shirt and adding jewelry. Once upon a time I was fashionable haha. It seems so very long ago...
