I love a local, handmade item as much as the next girl, but…let’s all admit it, Reformation has been looking good recently (likely because when I scroll The Real Real archives, there’s lots of inspiration borrowing happening there).
It might not be the cool girl brand no one has heard of, but in my book? The best clothes to spend your money on (cc: as long as they’re not highly unethical) are the ones you actually wear.
This is the same reason you’ll never see me hesitate to let someone who says they like my t-shirt know that it’s from Brandy Melville. Yes, I love my Little Boy Tees from Le Bon Shoppe, but in this economy (and with how much coffee I drink)? I’m so sorry, I do not believe in buying a white tee for over $25.
That brings me to this season of life. The season of the annual late-August-timed Reformation sale.
If you’re like me (aka you follow sales way too closely), you know that % is going to drop after a few days so, unless there’s something I’d shed a little tear over being sold out, I hold out.
Well? It dropped so here we are, I’m writing a fully dedicated non-sponsored post about my selects from the Reformation sale because I too have asked someone where they got something fully expecting them to say Reformation and they responded “It’s vintage” (good for you girl, respect).
What I Bought The Second The Clock Struck 50% Off
A light blue, straight neckline summer-y tank described as “what good outfits are made of”
A delicate white tank with ties on the side
Some white suit shorts. Classics.
I’d been eyeing this brown cashmere v-neck sweater for a while. a great addition to my sweater collection (that’s admittedly too large for someone who lives in los angeles)
Another delicate blue tank, but shorter
…and the same delicate top in champagne
What I Bought Once The Dust Settled A Little And I Realized They Still Had My Size
…and the matching pants.
What I’m Still Eyeing
I can’t resist a shell embellished heeled sandal!
I’m in love with the shape of these black strappy sandals
These little beaded butter yellow heels are everything
I believe in the power of a little over-the-top, slightly structured set for every wardrobe
This blue mini dress? The color is so enticing. So Alice in Wonderland in the best way.
My mom (not a regular mom, a cool mom) has this blue midi dress in white and it’s so flattering. I want to copy her
Nothing screams fall like an espresso suede bag
I’m a firm believer in the power of a lightweight jacket
My closet is in need of another short but structured wool jacket because I’ve pretty much worn mine to death
For weather’s opposite spectrum, a yellow linen pant
And for throwing on when you want to be comfortable, but still look cool? A tan pant described as “low effort. high reward”. Perfect.
