Love your choices. My best was an Eileen Fisher black wool duster coat that goes with everything, my J Crew "Downing" tote for $75 (!), an oversized Autumn Cashmere charcoal grey cashmere sweater for $40, and Panjar winter boots for $52. I love a good buy, especially when it's a need and has style!Mamavalveeta03https://www.blogger.com/profile/17079883155916629361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-17437557513407217682015-02-12T11:23:05.362-05:002015-02-12T11:23:05.362-05:00Any Givenchy is an MVP!

And you're right, the leather is thick and seemingly indestructible. I actually am getting better at making more thoughtful purchases, so I think I scored quite a few MVPs this year mostly on sale - a few Acne sweaters in beige and grey tones, some super comfy Pierre Hardy crepe oxfords, and the same Dries sandals as Aissa ;)melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15307033436260905938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-28748122438229904922015-02-11T14:49:24.859-05:002015-02-11T14:49:24.859-05:00Ask again when it's not winter, but right now ...Ask again when it's not winter, but right now my answer has to be two coats: a new fitted ski jacket and a knee-length wool coat that actually fits in the shoulders because Helmut Lang makes coats in size P. Both were on sale but still way more than I have ever spent on outerwear. But the feeling of being warm yet not frumpy is so so worth it, and with coats, the eventual cost per wear makes it easy to rationalize the purchase!

They've solved my long torso/short legs issue and they make my butt look good. :) I've worn to death my Imogene+Willie Elizabeths and Acne Needles. I confess that I first became obsessed with high-waisteds after seeing them on St. Vincent in her video for "Cruel." Rock stars are still the biggest influence on my style, even past 30.<br /><br />Golden Goose leather mid-tops. I still can't believe I spent so much on sneakers but I knew I'd love these. They fit so well into my mostly-casual lifestyle. The quality leather gives them a touch of luxe so I don't feel like I'm slumming it too much. The mid-top doesn't cut off the line of my legs at an awkward spot like high-tops. I have to force myself NOT to wear them everyday.AMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13039516231351178085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-60700844557700477882015-02-10T09:26:12.806-05:002015-02-10T09:26:12.806-05:00lin - yes it's the box tee! mine is from an ea...lin - yes it's the box tee! mine is from an earlier release before they added the new sizes so it's an M. i may order some new ones soon so i'll let you know :)miss sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427223953623415005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-52642204966124487452015-02-10T08:26:30.026-05:002015-02-10T08:26:30.026-05:00I assume that's the Everlane box tee? I've...I assume that's the Everlane box tee? I've been wanting to get one ever since I downgraded my old yellowing boxy tees to sleepwear, but always hesitated over sizing and fabric. I'm also cherishing a distant hope that they will do their sleeveless chunky knit in cotton for summer! It's my 90s dream come true but I've yet to find one in a fabric that would work for the tropics. <br /><br />I got really good basics last year - some replacement t-shirts and knee-length chinos from Uniqlo, an awesome navy COS cardigan, a great viscose midi dress from Uniqlo. I also really love an MHL plaid kneelength shirt dress I got in their sample sale in London - will buy it if they make it in a different fabric in a heartbeat - the cut is perfect.<br /><br />Those were things that made me marvel how I got by without them all this time. linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00638024559737049131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-27237083556691603692015-02-09T21:24:37.554-05:002015-02-09T21:24:37.554-05:00Everlane silk tanks, v-neck t-shirts

Unfortunately my feet did not work with their narrow yet beautiful loafers (a popular 2014 release it seems), but I ended up getting extremely wonderful customer service on this issue and that always wins me over. <br /><br />My personal 2014 favs: my black rag & bone newbury boots for always keeping me chic at work - I can't bear 3 inch heels outdoors so these live under my desk; mansur gavriel mini saffiano bucket - a bit of a sleeper hit! I thought it'd be too small at first but I use it all the time - it's amazing how much wear, tear and rain I put this bag through and the textured saffiano just saves me every time...and just for fun, a late 2014/early 2015 fav: smartwool socks. oh my god why did I ever wear anything but wool socks in all of my previous nyc winters? so practical. a bit pricey but when hunted down enough, you'll get lucky with promo codes!amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17300394271052387432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-43012645869558086992015-02-09T16:03:06.862-05:002015-02-09T16:03:06.862-05:001.

It is so warm, versatile, and I get so many questions and compliments on it. I bought it way back in July when I noticed all the Canada scarves were veeeery briefly on sale for $75 on the Acne site before they raised the price from $150 to $170. I kick myself for not buying another color as well. <br /><br />A bit random, but I purchased a few Made-in-France hair barrettes earlier this year (brand: France Luxe) and they're excellent quality and can handle my very thick hair without breaking. <br /><br />Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05049326219415698724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-76897150052751250862015-02-09T14:52:08.476-05:002015-02-09T14:52:08.476-05:00I am definitely going to start asking myself "...I am definitely going to start asking myself "Would I pack this for a weeklong trip?". What a good benchmark for foundation workhorses! The standouts in my wardrobe this year are my black Rag & Bone skinny jeans, black Everlane cashmere pullover, J. Crew chelsea boots, and Isabel Marant Dickers (even though I got them in December and haven't worn them too much yet, I'm counting them anyway b/c I love them). Aside from them all being black, the other theme is that many of them were inspired by this very blog, so thank you Miss Sophie for keeping up the great work! :)Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06673908529290585492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-78291348270841904682015-02-09T14:20:39.823-05:002015-02-09T14:20:39.823-05:00My favorites in 2014 were shoes mostly: Dries van ...My favorites in 2014 were shoes mostly: Dries van Noten sandals, Adidas Stan Smith.
