When it comes to my personal style, I always go by the mantra of less is more or as Don Draper would say, ” Make it simple, but significant.” Understated doesn’t necessarily translate to boring. In my opinion, it indicates a certain self awareness…to know what you can pull off with a sense of confidence and ease and most importantly, to never look like you tried too hard. I suppose that’s why I’ve always gravitated towards well constructed jeans and and a soft white tee. It’s an effortless pairing that is endlessly classic, versatile and flattering . This explains why I never over accessorize or wear a ton of make-up (trust me ladies…as you get older, the less make-up, the better). It’s just not me…even my engagement ring and wedding band are very simple because I knew I’d wear these pieces forever and I wanted to feel comfortable and true to myself. Normally, I wouldn’t wear a watch but when the team at Jord reached out to me and introduced me to their wood watch collection, I was instantly intrigued. Immediately, I knew this was a piece I could see myself wearing everyday and that’s exactly what has happened. Ever since I received it, I’ve been wearing it everywhere. I even had a dad at my son’s baseball game ask about my watch the other day (by the way, they make men’s watches too which would make a perfect Father’s day gift). I chose the Ely in maple because I love the light wood and the clean design. I’ve become so used it now that I don’t even reach for my phone anymore when I need the time. I guess you could say stylish and functional had me at hello…

Such a simple, yet classic watch! I also love your jeans – I am in the market for a pair like that. Your outfits always look so effortless, Kate! Keep it up!

Simple, understated, and very chic. You just can’t go wrong with a great fitting pair of jeans ( these look great on you, btw!) and a flowy white tee. The tote and watch look great with this outfit too. Thumbs up!
