I admire modern style icon Shala Monroque on so many levels. She always manages to look so classic-with-a-twist, a neo-trad through and through. In my fantasy life we’re best friends and gossip over dinner at Paris Fashion Week…someday :)

Simple, chic, plaid. Fairly certain this Gramercy stationery by Minted was made for the Neo-Trad (aka the Matchbook girl). Me thinks “KATIE ARMOUR” would look quite nice at top… ;)
I’ve decided that someday when I’m a fabulous old lady I’m going to have to wear lots of fabulous old brooches. I’m thinking extra loud and sparkly. Aim high, right? These four from Tiffany & Co. are tops in my book. The owl makes me smile so and the butterfly, well, who doesn’t love a few pink tourmalines, amethysts, and diamonds? Thankfully, I have 45+ years to save… ;)
My tastes are simple (polka dots, stripes, plaids, yes please!) and this new boldly striped bedding from West Elm is chic, chic, chic. Wouldn’t they be fantastic in super traditional room? The graphic stripes would look smashing against toile wallpaper. I can already picture J.A.K. on the shams. I hope Santa is listening ;)
