Denim Diaries
Sharing our denim diaries today, as we are definitely denim obsessed here at LSK. Denim is the definition of casual, cool, and chic. Having a collection of favorite denim items that you wear again and again is the foundation of curating a wardrobe that you truly love. Not only is denim versatile and seasonless, but all-things-jean get better with more wear and as we all know, not much washing is needed. How great is that? A few of our favorite denim brands/shops include Levi's, Everlane, Free People, Reformation, Madewell, and Abercrombie. Get links at the bottom of the post and happy friday...! xo.
one: retro vibes with this black denim mini from free people
two: we love levi's and these cropped jeans can be dressed up or way down
three: effortlessly cool overalls, thanks to reformation
four: we love abercrombie for denim + this jacket would be worn on repeat
five: madewell is known for forever jeans and these look extra good

Denim Made By Everlane
Denim lovers, this one is for you. You might have already heard the news, but if you haven't, then this is seriously about to be a big moment. Everlane has launched their own denim line. Yes, denim made by Everlane is now a reality. The brand that we love for their minimalist style approach, appreciation of quality materials, transparent pricing, and prioritization of ethical factory conditions has introduced their first ever collection of denim.We were so excited and thankful to receive a few pairs from Everlane and can confirm that their denim is the real deal. It is the type of denim that feels substantial, real, and ready to be worn again, again, and again. The kind of jean that won't stretch out, but instead will become worn-in over time in a natural way, resulting in an even better fit after many wears.From skinny jeans, to high-rise, and modern boyfriend fits, Everlane has the basics covered in their signature effortless way. One of our favorite things about their brand is their consistent and simple approach when it comes to design and styling- do what works and do it well. With each pair of denim priced at just $68, the investment is extremely practical, wallet-friendly, and wardrobe-satisfying. Below are three of our favorite styles + check back soon to see Lo style her favorite pair. xo[show_shopthepost_widget id="2815641"]

Of course the shows are what it is all about, but those in-between, en-route to, and post show moments are a big part of fashion week, too. The style of the women (and men!) that are in the streets and in the show seats is so inspiring in an authentic, organic, real-life kind of way.

The Beauty Of Smiling
Have you ever seen someone in a public place (maybe in a restaurant, in a coffee shop, at the grocery store, or anywhere else) and thought to yourself, wow, "she is such a happy person" or "oh my gosh, how much joy she must have!"? This has happened to me several times and it always sparks something inside me. This normally happens when that person is smiling. Whenever I notice someone's smile, I feel joy inside, for them, and it also causes me to intentionally smile more.
The beauty of smiling is like no other; it is genuine, it is real, and it is who we are. We are made to rejoice and share joy, even when circumstances aren't perfect. Actually, especially when circumstances aren't perfect! It is a fun challenge to smile past the hurt, feel happy despite the storm you might be in, and carry joy in our hearts.
About a year and a half ago now, I listened to a sermon by Graham Cooke and this quote really stuck with me: "You need to have a lightness about you, where the joy in you is greater than anything else." I think about these words often and whenever I do and take them to heart, something inside me changes. Worry, fear, and doubt can really burden us and cause us to get stuck. If we have a mindset that is rooted in joy, we will feel light, happy, and hopeful.
Smile on, friend! You never know who might need to see the light of your smile, so share it with the world, no matter what. xo

Transitional favorites from Abercrombie
Abercrombie just opened a store in Century City here in LA and it is amazing! The fall line from A&F is complete with cozy sweatshirts, effortless denim, easy sweaters, and so much more. We have talked about it here on the blog before, but A&F recently went through a major rebrand and have new designers. We are so inspired by their growth and development as a brand and are excited to see what is next for them! In the meantime, we will be making their items wardrobe staples, season after season.As September approaches, we have our eye on a few early fall pieces to make the transition seamless. We love the idea of layering and mixing fall pieces with summer pieces. For example, throw on a denim jacket over this romper or rock this sweater with a pair of denim shorts. All it takes are a few new things to pair with things you already own, and you will have yourself a completely new look. Abercrombie knows the power of versatile items that easily mix and match, which makes moving into a new season so effortless. See below for transitional favorites! xo[show_boutique_widget id="631838"]

There is something about an oversized denim jacket that we just love. It is relaxed, effortlessly-cool, and completely stylish. We are so excited to report that thanks to Abercombie, we have discovered the best oversized denim jacket. A&F's girlfriend denim jacket is high quality, well-designed, comfortable, seasonless, and so versatile. Plus, it is under $100 and comes in two color options- medium wash or black. We cannot wait to pair it with skinny jeans for a denim on denim look this fall, or match is with a maxi dress or skirt for a laidback, 70's-inspired vibe.
