How fitting… April was all about style. I’ve kind of admitted that I don’t really have great style beyond what I find to be comfortable and whatever. Literally, ballet flats were definitely invented for girls like me. Less than graceful me prefers to not test gravity. I have a ridiculous collection of blue button downs and half of my closet is more suited for the beach than busy Manhattan.
If you follow me on Twitter or keep up with Levo League, than you must know who Kathryn is! Kathryn works at Levo with me and just so happens to sit across from me at work. She’s hilarious and has the absolute best style. Honestly, every morning that she walks into the office, we all take note of what she’s wearing. And by “take note,” I mean it. It’s not uncommon for someone to wear the exact same thing as Kathryn the next day. Yep. Guilty.
While watching an Office Hours, Kathryn was inspired to create her own “sidle hustle.” Kathryn has recently launched her own website (and blog!). I volunteered my closet as a guinea pig for her new project.
It was amazing.
Kathryn and I spent all afternoon going through my closet (oh my was that a task) and then caught up on the stoop of my apartment to debrief.
Some of the outfits that Kathryn put together for me. (A lot of my clothes are older so I tried to find similar options in case you want to replicate!)
J. Crew Striped Dress (similar) // Bass Weejuns (similar)
One of the pieces that we kept going to over and over again was this linen blazer from Theory that I’ve had for years. It’s funny because I rarely wear it, but Kathryn totally made it work with so many different looks.
Oh my gosh you totally have style! But I do have to admit she helped create some totally adorable looks, go Kathryn! xxoo Jordyn http://www.thefairyprincessdiaries.com
Love all the looks. P.S. you rock a denim shirt better than anyone I have ever seen. Have thought that before. I can't quite seem to pull them off the same way. But you look amazing !
I love the looks with the fitted blazers. I definitely prefer them to the looser cardigans because no matter your shape or size you look thinner and always polished!
When I want to experiment with trends, I try to follow the formula of picking something that’s close to something I would already wear but with a small twist. I am loving this @onequince one piece jumpsuit with a cardigan layered over– it’s a slightly different look than what I would normally go for (leggings and a sweater, for example) so I still feel like myself! #quincepartner

A classic look with classic books 📚🧥 @jcrew updated their iconic trench with a longer, more modern length and I’m loving it! I love it paired with these black jeans and a simple white tee for a causal look and it would also look chic with heels and a cute little dress for a night out! 🖤 #injcrew #ad

one year in the books of BROTHERS FOREVER 🫶🏻 I can’t believe how big both boys have gotten in just one year…. My heart can barely take it. I can’t remember life without them and, truly, it feels like they’ve always been a part of me. #brothers
@ohmymahjong hooked me UP! Learning mahjong has been on my mind for a while and this year we finally made it happen! My 97 year old grandma Charlotte plays mahjong every week- and now that I have learned, I know what’s been keeping her so young! Mahjong is FUN and the perfect mix of luck and strategy. The rules can be a lot to learn (I’m still learning for sure) but it’s easy to pick up with a good teacher.
Thank you #ohmymahjong for all the fun goodies… chic tiles, a handy mat, great organizers! Everything we need for our next mahjong girls night! #mahjong
🏈🍴 As a #HoodPartner, I’m bringing my A-game with a chili bar featuring the ultimate all-star—@hphood Sour Cream. Made with real Hood Milk and Cream, every bite’s a win with high quality flavor!
When your toothbrush (@shoptrask!) is so cute you ALMOST don’t want to use it! I considered “saving” it (for what? I don’t know) and decided to ignore my instinct and enjoy it every day! I often have to remind myself about the number of stickers I didn’t use as a kid because I was “saving” them… or stationery collecting dust in a drawer because I was “saving” them… or candles that went unlit because I was “saving” them… or even a cute outfit I was “saving” for a special occasion. Trying to be better about using the things I have and love without guilt!!
Oh my gosh you totally have style! But I do have to admit she helped create some totally adorable looks, go Kathryn!

Love the eastland penny loafers, you look great in them.
I love the looks with the fitted blazers. I definitely prefer them to the looser cardigans because no matter your shape or size you look thinner and always polished!
