Lately, Inspired By…All Things Feminine.

By: Jen Shoop

I have been vacillating towards two extremes in my cool weather dressing: either predominantly black or ultra feminine.  Today I’m in the latter camp, inspired by feathers, pearls, and sorbet colors, as shown by the moodboard below.

Volume at Cecilie Bahnsen // Feathers at Rochas // Minnow Swim Resort Collection // Loulou de Saison in Erdem // Bows at Delpozo // Pearls by Jimmy Choo (variation here) // gorgeous mini dresses by Estelle Milano

The Fashion Magpie Feminine Moodboard

A couple of items I’m drooling over (click on images to access details or see links and notes below):


+Flower earrings (under $60!);

+Zimmermann sweater (to die — get the look for less with this);

+Tory Burch Clara Flat (adore in this new colorway);

+Rebecca Vallance slip dress (saucy and sweet and importantly ON SALE);

+Wandler handbag;

+Maiami cardigan — just love this color and have been considering this cashmere crew in a similar color;

+Nicola Bathie earrings (<<on sale for under $65);

+Veronica Beard blouse (obsessed — get the look for less with this);

+Alexandre Birman velvet heels;

+White feather dress;

+Loeffler Randall feather clutch;

+Pearl embellished sweater;

+Moncler puffer (love and lust);

+Sorel boots;

+Cashmere beanie;

+Another chic Moncler puffer (loveeeee!);

+Slouch socks.  OK I have to say something about these.  I bought them when I was headed to the hospital to give birth to mini because I heard that you would have to walk up and down the hall in your bare feet if you didn’t — and also that hospitals tend to be cold and you’d want them.  I was initially unsure about these because they are a “slouchy” fit — they don’t stay snug around your calf.  But gradually I have fallen in love with them.  They are the softest, plushest sock EVER and I love sleeping in them when I’m super cold.  Thinking of buying a pair for my mom’s stocking…

+Blanket coat.  Different style, but also love the soft sorbet colors of this cocoon coat!

OK and FINALLY — not shown above: this adorable sweater!!!

P.S.  What makes you feel good about yourself?

P.P.S.  Lessons learned from siblings.

P.P.P.S.  Are you a town mouse or country mouse?

  1. Looooove these picks. That Zimmermann sweater! I, too, vacillate between extremes when it comes to getting dressed — super tomboyish one day, super feminine the next. I like to dress to my mood!

  2. Just saying hi and I’m back to reading your blog after a few month hiatus (Italian vacation, x-country move, new-house, new jobs, etc.) Enjoying your take on things as much as ever.

    1. Hi Jessica! I’ve been missing your thoughtful comments! Welcome back!! Sounds like you’ve been through a transitional phase — all good things, it sounds, but hang in there! xo

  3. Oh love these picks! But please get your mother the heated mattress pad! Get one for yourself too! You will LOVE me (and it too!). I am sure!!! It’s my best purchase EVER!!!
