LSPACE Swimwear and Beach Bags: Where to Start

LSPACE is the Costa Mesa swim label that started with reversible triangle bikinis and a real obsession with fit. I like it for the bright coastal mood and the clothes that carry you from the water to dinner.

Loren Stewart Jewelry: Gold Safety Pins, Chains and Rings

Loren Stewart started in 2009 when Rachel Loren began melting down her own vintage gold jewelry to make pieces she could not find anywhere else, later joined by sisters Satya and Annah Stewart. The label built its identity on that idea of transformation, turning safety pins, ID tags, and utilitarian hardware into fine gold and gemstone pieces. Everything is still handmade by small teams of artisans in downtown Los Angeles and a family factory in Italy rather than mass produced.

LELET NY Hair Accessories: What I'd Actually Wear

LELET NY is the New York label that grew from one hair accessory Sara Bieler Sasson made for her daughter. I love how much architecture she packs into a clip, a chain bandana and a pair of earrings.

Le Specs Sunglasses: Frames Worth Knowing

Le Specs is the Australian sunglasses label that started as a cosmetics company's side project in 1979 and came back with a sense of humor. I like frames with a point of view, and this edit is for the ones that make a plain white shirt look decided.

Lack of Color Hats: What to Know Before You Buy

Lack of Color is the Australian hat label that grew out of a stash of vintage hats and never lost the habit of playing with them. I think a good brim changes an outfit more than almost anything else, and this is the edit for that.

How Tall is Suki Waterhouse?

The short answer on How Tall is Suki Waterhouse is below, and the honest version is that it depends on two or three things rather than one. Brand size labels are not standardised, so the measurements in centimetres are the only comparable number.

Elisa Johnson Sunglasses: Frames for Every Day

Elisa Johnson is the independent Los Angeles eyewear label that opened in 2021 with aviators, ovals and cat eyes drawn by its founder. I like that the optical frames get as much attention as the sunglasses.

Dragon Diffusion: Craig Wright's Woven Leather Bags

Craig Wright's Dragon Diffusion began in 1985, built on basketry techniques borrowed from the South Pacific, Japan and Europe. I go through the woven leather totes and how they age with use.

Chimi Sunglasses: The Best Frames Right Now

Chimi is the Stockholm eyewear label two childhood friends started in 2016 over a broken pair of sunglasses. I like a frame that feels like an old friend, and these are the shapes I would start with.

Casa Clara Jewelry: How to Choose a Statement Piece

Casa Clara is a jewelry and accessories label from Oceanside, California, made by two friends who love color and travel. I think jewelry should hold a small memory, so this edit is my pick of the pieces that do.

BTB Los Angeles Bags: The Pieces Worth the Price

BTB Los Angeles is a travel-minded bag label that began with straw totes and a shared love of accessories. I like how it makes a sundress or a very plain outfit look decided, and this edit is my packing list.

BRU Eyewear Sunglasses: A Guide to Great Frames

BRU Eyewear is a sunglasses label from Los Angeles, started in 2022 by husband and wife Paige Brubaker and David Adams. Its smaller frames borrow from vintage eyewear and Long Beach buildings, and I think they are lovely.

Best Handbags 2025: A Buying Guide

Best handbags 2025 come down to a few checks you can do from the product page, and everything else is preference. I sort the picks by everyday carry and by what actually decides a good bag.

B-Low the Belt Belts and Bags: The Styles Worth Buying

B-Low The Belt is the Los Angeles label that treats the buckle as the main event. I think a belt changes an outfit faster than a new dress, so this edit is mostly belts, with a few fringe bags for company.

The Tory Burch Charlie Bag Is Quilted Quiet Confidence

Tory Burch is best known for a medallion, so a bag that leans on stitching instead is a shift. The tory burch charlie bag is built on quilting and a chain-and-leather strap, with the branding pushed almost entirely into the hardware. It is the quietest line the house currently makes.

Swarovski Necklace: 3,800 Hand-Set Stones for One Met Gala Neck

A Swarovski necklace can be a single pendant or a full collar of crystals. Here are 44 of them, from Millenia pendants and tennis strands to swans, collars and chokers, with a styling tip for each group.

Lacoste Crocodile Bracelet: Chains, Stones and Gift Sets

Is it a Rennis Heritage Scaled Down

Béis Luggage: The Carry-On Roller and Everything That Rides on It

Béis luggage started in 2018 with Shay Mitchell's Weekender, first sketched on a cocktail napkin on a plane. I sort Béis luggage by trip, from the carry-on roller to check-in sizes, backpacks and weekenders.

DeMellier London Names Its Bags After Places You Want To Be

DeMellier names each bag after a city, and the naming is not decorative since every city corresponds to a specific silhouette the brand keeps year after year. That consistency means you can shop the range by shape rather than by season. This edit moves from the structured New York and Hudson pieces to the softer Siena and Stockholm shapes.

Caribbean Getaway: PQ Swim

PQ Swim one-pieces and straw hats make an easy Caribbean getaway wardrobe. I build a capsule around the swimsuits and add cover-ups.

Amber Sceats Jewelry: Sculptural Pieces to Know

Amber Sceats is the Sydney jewelry label that makes gold and pearls look like small sculptures. I like jewelry that changes the proportions of a plain shirt, and this edit is full of it.

VERAFIED Handbags: The Pieces Worth the Price

VERAFIED is the New York handbag label Vera C. Wang started in 2020, built on sculptural shapes and a refusal to rush. I like bags that have a reason for every curve, and these do.

Rebecca Minkoff Bags: Which Styles Are Worth It?

Rebecca Minkoff is the New York label that grew out of one bag designed for the morning after. I keep coming back to how practical her shapes are, with just enough downtown edge to make them mine.

florabella Bags: A Shopper's Guide to Best Buys

florabella is the Dallas resort label of raffia bags, wide-brim hats and cover-ups, started in 1998 and named for a woman who loved fashion and travel. I love a brand that packs a whole vacation into three accessories.
