A few years ago I decided to have a signature color for summer and winter for my toes. Always red in the summer and always wine in the winter. I never regret it and completely agree with your sentiment that it makes an outfit!

Jaymee this is… not to exaggerate… brilliant. Adding “wine colored nail polish” to my list to copy STAT

It really helps with the analysis paralysis at the nail salon 😂

I love this and do it too! This summer I have done black on my toes and I LOVE it so much. It goes with everything and feels chic for summer. Still deciding on what color I want to do for Fall/Winter...

Kelly Williams's avatar

Cara, I might need to do black for fall/winter! I love that idea...

I love BORE! Genius!

Ok I love the pinky ring, never clicked a link quicker. Also summer is not over until Kelly stops wearing tube tops. It's official.

Bahahaha i need this printed and hung in my house. Hilarious and true.

Welcome back, Kelly! Greaaaat piece! I’ve literally been wearing the same 5 pieces this past month and had no idea I just had BORE!

Kelly Williams's avatar

Haha Antonia, then you are the very definition of BORE not Boring!!

Back and better than ever! I’ve been a slip skirt/slip dress evangelist for forever so loved to see all the ways you styled it. Excited for my Donni skirt (on the CHEAP) to wing its way to me.

Kelly Williams's avatar

Eeeeeee!!’ I knew my fellow Donni enthusiast could appreciate the skirt. But for that price? Heck, everyone needs one!

Your outfit pics make me sooo happy! I’m 100 percent with you on slip skirts - I love them. They’re so easy to make work for both day and night. Love your all-black date night look!

Kelly Williams's avatar

Thanks Maria!! I’m glad to know we are both leaning on slip skirts this summer.

You could never BORE me Kelly!! I also feel more inspired when I see outfits repeated vs always showing new. I am in the midst of writing a similar sentiment and I get so happy when our minds align (again!). I am on the never ending hunt for your yellow shade of Leset pants bc every time I see them on you and how you live in them and I’m like, damn those are prefect 💛

Kelly Williams's avatar

Angie!! I LOVE that our minds connected on the outfit repeating energy; I cannot wait to read what you have to say (probably with some insights that I didn’t even connect!).

I HAVE MISSED YOU QUEEN! I am also in my midi skirt summer and loving it.

Kelly Williams's avatar

Of course you are because we are on the most wonderful mind-meld!!

I thought of you this morning as I grabbed my red flat sandals for the second day in a row. Maybe I'll wear them again tomorrow! I have to constantly remind myself that the only way to have a signature is to actually have a signature :-)

Kelly Williams's avatar

PERFECTLY SAID!! I want the people around me to know me for something but that means they need to see me with it over and over!

Piece repeating as proof of a good purchase!! and you in a purple tube top >>>

Kelly Williams's avatar

Madeline; the purple tube top plays! Who in the world would have thunk it?!

As someone who is currently on their own personal style challenge - I couldn’t agree more about how much it helps with decision fatigue to already have one item selected that you know you’re going to create an outfit around. I’ve actually been shocked by that one thing alone!!

Kelly Williams's avatar

Yes! Yes to this!! Just having the starting off point instead of standing in front of clothes feeling… well… paralyzed.

Cathy Karuga's avatar

Barely there fingers and red toe nails is my life philosophy. Love love love those J.Crew burgundy ballerina flats!

Kelly Williams's avatar

Life philosophy is right!!!

BORE is such a good name for this. The more I think about it, the more I realize the pieces I wear most are the ones that end up defining my personal style. And your outfits are such a great example—they all feel fresh, even with the same pieces on repeat. Welcome back!!! Xx

Kelly Williams's avatar

Thank you friend!! When I picture you I picture vintage Levi’s and Chanel flats (plus maybe a trench coat) because those are pieces you repeat time and again. They ARE you.

Becca Wilkotz's avatar

Kelly you've been missed! I hope your time away was rejuvenating.

There's such attention to what it means to thoughtfully bring something into your closet and rewear it. Simple really!

Kelly Williams's avatar

Thanks Becca, I missed publishing and I’m glad you liked this one!!

Rani Monson's avatar

Thank you!! So much learning & lusting:

Just ordered the beige paper tote from Zara.

I didn’t know Gap is selling shoes. Again.

Appreciate the candor & directness on the Dorsey pieces. I’ve had the same concerns.

Kelly Williams's avatar

Yay Rani! Excited for you to enjoy the purse as much as me!!

RE Dorsey, I was hesitant to order given what I heard but maybe they put better QC in place? My pieces are great.
