Denim Daze
This might sound a little strange... but growing up, Bloomingdale's was honestly one of the places I dreamed of shopping at one day. The NYC import made its way to LA when I was a tween, and when I'd visit the mall with friends on weekends, I started noticing their iconic Little Brown Bags swaying from the hands of chic older-than-me women, the ones who had a little je ne sais quoi that eluded and captivated me at that age.
I'd take my allowance to explore Bloomingdale's beauty counters, swatching eyeshadows from MAC on the back of my palm, spritzing delicate fragrances from Chanel onto my wrist (which, admittedly, were way too grown up for me at the time), swooning over the candy colored Lancome lipglosses, all while hoping one of the sales associates would be amused by my somewhat premature infatuation with makeup and share some samples with me. Years later, I'd buy my first pairs of Marc Jacobs heels at Bloomingdale's to celebrate my move to NYC (and what, in my mind, was the beginning of my leap into adulthood), and return over and over for many other fashion "firsts."
As a full-fledged adult, Bloomie's has stayed, reliably, in my corner - with a size inclusive department that I go to for denim staples (like my faves from NYDJ) to luxe designer pieces. I picked up these white ankle-length NYDJ skinnies a couple of weeks ago, and have worn them multiple times (with heels and sneakers) since. White denim can be tricky, and I've probably only worn a couple of pairs in my life -- but I love that these are truly opaque, comfortable, and look so fresh and so clean-clean.
