FDMTL Quilted Haori Jacket - $480

This was my Christmas gift to myself. I am really into quilted jackets because they're a timeless look. It was definitely a splurge but I love the oversized feeling of this jacket and it's take on the traditional Japanese Haori shape. You can buy this at Proper LBC, a small business in Long Beach dedicated to stocking streetwear brands.

Marley's Monsters Organic Facial Rounds - $20

This year I've taken a few steps to reduce single use items so I started in with single use cotton rounds. Skincare routines can lead to a lot of single use waste, so I started using reusable cotton pads. Each pack replaces at least 1,000 single use cotton balls or pads REPEATEDLY for years.

I swear by the bidet and I will never go back ever again!!! I bought this when the first wave of toilet paper hoarding began, and now I tell everyone it is the best thing I've ever bought. It's sleek, cute, affordable, and honestly, the more elevated way to shit.

OVERSIZED CABLE KNIT VEST - $155

When I discovered The Frankie Shop when I moved to NYC in 2016, I definitively stopped shopping anywhere else. Since moving back home to LA it has made me sad not to shop there as often, but you KNOW I copped the popular Cable Knit Vest before it sold out. They are GREAT about restocking, so sign up for a notification when it is in stock again and get it while you can!

Jennifer Fisher's Baby Jennifer Hoops - $375

I stumbled upon Jennifer Fisher’s jewelry after frantically searching the internet to find a pair of hoops Alicia Keys was wearing. They are a high price point, but I like to think of them in terms of wear-per-use, and this size at 1.5” is perfect for wearing everyday. I love the subtle engraving detail on the inside and the clean surface of the outside. A perfect pair of chunky, vibrant hoops.

Long Quilted Bomber Coat - $220

There are no items in my closet I wear more than the ones that feel like a gigantic blanket. I don’t own this yet, as I am having trouble justifying it in LA weather, but if I was still in NYC I can guarantee I would’ve gotten this permanently sewn onto my body. Great quality, great price point, great shop overall. Frankie Shop gets me every time.

CDG Off White Air Force - $360

Comme des Garçons, the Japanese Fashion label just released this collaboration on the Air Force 1 in October of 2020. The deconstructed look on the classic white shoe got me. If you love streetwear but are also looking for a minimalistic and elegant vibe, this shoe fits the bill perfectly.

Package Free Zero Waste Self Care Kit - $135

Like many others, I found Package Free when I watched an interview with Lauren Singer, the young woman who went viral for living a zero-waste lifestyle. Immediately, I was so inspired, but found the idea of making my own soaps, shampoos, toothpaste, etc daunting. I was thrilled to see she started her own company dedicated to helping people begin a zero-waste lifestyle without the trouble of learning how to make so many items from scratch. This kit in particular is the perfect way to get started. Thanks, Lauren!!!
