From My Closet to Yours: A Love Letter in Links

Sponsored by Fashionphile…because they get it, and that means no paywall for you.

I don’t talk about the new things in my closet nearly enough—probably because I’m too busy wearing them into the ground. But today, I’m letting you in. These are the designer pieces I’ve collected, cherished, and worn to death… plus the ones currently living rent-free in my search history. You know that feeling when you fall in love with something so good and you need it in every color? Yeah. That.

The Saint Laurent That Survived My 20s

I’ve worn this YSL Hobo into every kind of night—date nights, dance floors, fancy dinners. Sleek, structured, and strangely indestructible. Thinking of adding the larger version to my collection.

The Chanel Shoes That Started It All

My first pair of Chanel shoes were the classic cap-toe sling backs. Bought with my own money. Never worn—just admired. I’m tempted to get a second pair, like museum twins on a shelf. These silver glitter version will do!

Much Needed Loewe Upgrade

I carried this bag Loewe flamenco clutch every single day for over a year. The color faded, but my love didn’t. Now I’m eyeing her older sister—the XL Flamenco—because my schedule (and my chaos) has grown.

Cartier Dreams

This Tank watch is my daily driver (and paid almost double than this price for it, by the way). But now? I can’t stop staring at this diamond Baignoire…yes, I have a problem.

All-Day Bottega Bag

The Bang Bang Vanity Case is my current day-to-night MVP. But lately, the Andiamo has been calling my name—structured, quiet-luxury perfection.

Sunglasses That Last Forever

I usually gravitate toward sleek and subtle frames like these Saint Lauren Slims—but these Tom Fords remind me of the oversized ones my mom wore, looking effortlessly expensive at all times.

The Only Summer Sandal You Need

I’ll make it easy for all of us and claim these Louboutin thong sandals as the only shoes we need this summer. No notes.

The LV Vernis: An Heirloom and a Habit

My mom handed me her Marc Jacobs-era Vernis crossbody bag, and I’ve been collecting them ever since. They’re nostalgic, sturdy, and surprisingly affordable. This bronze bucket bag is next on my list.

Card Case Chronicles

After using this Bottega card holder till it was tearing at the seams. I just upgraded to a metallic larger version that feels like a little luxury hit every time I open my bag.

A Gucci Complex

These rubber slides used to be my go-to beach shoe. But then I found the platforms—and bought them in multiple colors. What can I say? I’m 5’3” with a height complex.
