Dedicated to using the highest quality denim at the best price, Mott & Bow controls the entire manufacturing process and even work their finishings and details by hand, ensuring each pair is unique. They are the real deal and I absolutely love the fit and styles they offer. I own two pairs; their Jane High Rise Skinny Dark Denim and Bond Black Denim with Knee Slits and while both are different types of denim, both have the same flattering fit and quality.

The Jane High Rise Skinny Dark Denim is a stretch denim with a deep indigo hue. Depending on how you like your fit, you can size down in this ultra comfortable stretch denim. Mott & Bow knows buying denim online is tricky and so their try-on program is a great way to get to know their product line. Buy a pair of jeans and get a second size to try, return whichever doesn't fit with the prepaid label, and call it done!


My all time favorite pair of denim from Mott & Bow is hands down their Bond Black Denim. I opted for the version with the knee slits and I love how chic they look! The fabric in this pair is less forgiving, although still has a good amount of stretch. I tend to size up in this fit but thanks to their try-on program it couldn't be easier to get the right size without the hassle of multiple orders and shipping costs.


How many pairs of denim is too many pairs? Cause I'm a little bit obsessed with the fit and fabrics that Mott & Bow produces. Full disclosure, Mott & Bow generously gifted me with these jeans but I truly stand by the quality of their product.

A major goal for myself this year has been to treat myself better and get a bit more in tune with my body and what it needs. If I wake up desperate for 10 more minutes of sleep, I'll hit snooze. If I'm feeling tired, I'll pass on that mid-week shopping event. If I'm feeling energetic I'll crush that afternoon spin class. And if I'm feeling like Shake Shack for the millionth time this week, I will order Shake Shack (Chicken Shack + plain fries please!). I was feeling like I needed a bit of a break so we ventured to Newport, RI last weekend for a little getaway and it was just what I needed to reset and get back on track.



I styled my look with the idea of giving my body what it needs and craves and one thing I'm seriously craving is Spring! I paired this short sleeve sequined sweater with a striped tee and white skinnies for an early Spring look that's appropriate for almost any weather. It was a gorgeous sunny day in Newport so I paired it with nude sandals but you can easily swap the sandals for lace up flats or sparkly sneakers if it's still bit colder. Keep an eye for more looks from Newport, plus a review of our stay at Gilded Hotel on the blog later this week.

I had such a blast last year at Suffolk Downs that I told myself I definitely wanted to return this year. Now that I live in Chelsea the race track is much closer so it was a breeze driving over to Suffolk Downs. This year the weather was a little cooler so I wore a pair of casual ripped skinnies, a silk tank, and a go-everywhere leather tote. And this year I also placed a couple of bets!

Admittedly, I thought I had won the first bet I placed but as it turns out I got the terms "to place" and "to show" confused and lost. But it was fun regardless! I took my boyfriend who had never been to the race track and we had fun mulling over the program stats and randomly picking cleverly named horses. As long as racing returns to Suffolk Downs, I'll continue to visit every year and place a few bets! Who knows, maybe next year I'll actually win something!
