“My eyes don’t understand these yet”

I read that line in Leandra Medine Cohen’s Substack this week (she was describing these boots). It reminded me of all the things I once found hideous (Ugg boots, jelly sandals) and now can’t imagine a world without. I’m applying that open mindedness to styling this week, in the interest of dialing up the visual interest on some very basic outfit formulas. As they say at my kid’s preschool, “It’s not that you don’t like tomatoes. You don’t like tomatoes YET”. Let’s get into it!
