back to basics

SWEATER LOVE. This raglan knit from Emerson Fry has been a real life saver during my travels these past couple of weeks. I’m a jeans and sweater girl at heart, and this one is definitely as close to perfect as it gets. Super comfy, slightly oversized and made from the softest italian wool you can imagine. Definitely one of my favorite basics!

SWEATER Emerson Fry (here). EARRING Sophie Bille Brahe (here similar here). BELT H&M (similar ones here). JEANS J Brand. SHOES Jimmy Choo. WATCH Michael Kors.
