Why Black Skinny Jeans are Still My Go-To Denim for Travel, Featuring Mott & Bow

A white woman stands on the ledge of a fountain wearing a black top, black jeans, a grey sweater blazer, and black oxfords. In the background is the Charlotte skyline

Yes, yes skinny jeans are no longer de rigueur, but that doesn’t mean they deserve to be tossed from your closet (in fact, please don’t ever toss any clothing from your closet – there are plenty of ways to rehome items sustainably!

Is This the Best Boot for Travel? A Review of the Everyday Chelsea Boot from Nisolo

Alyssa is standing on rocks wearing black pants, black boots. It's a close up shot of her calves and feet, and the Golden Gate Bridge is visible in the background.

Two images sourced from Italic

Alyssa is wearing a white linen tee and light blue jeans and is holding a straw hat. The image is closely cropped on her hand and legs.

The Quest: Find a stunning hat for summer. The catch? It has to be able to bounce back after 24 hours of being crammed into my travel bag. For some background: I’ve never really been what you’d call a “hat person.” I don’t like losing my peripheral vision or having to deal with the awkward …
