Closet Envy: Jessie Baylin

This uber-stylish recording artist has an amazing closet that she understandably finds herself spending a fair amount of time in. Whether she’s packing for a trip or accompanying her husband, KINGS OF LEON drummer, Nathan, on European tours, she opts to make an event of it and has friends over for wine and a girl’s night while she packs. After all, her greatest style inspirations are the fashion-forward ladies in her life that keep her in the know and send her must-haves of the season.

PERSONAL style

GO-TO DESIGNERS: DÔEN, The Great, Nili Lotan, and Gucci—why not. FASHION ICON: Marianne Faithfull. SCENT: Hermès, Un Jardin Sur Le Nil. ONLINE SHOPPING: Shopbop, Net-A-Porter, Etsy. FALL/WINTER CRUSH: I am eyeing a few vintage jackets on Etsy that I’m not going to talk too much about because I don’t want someone else putting it in their cart. DAY BAG: Old Celine. EVENING BAG: A cheap clutch I bought on the street in Rio de Janeiro. STILETTO: Gucci, Prada, Jil Sander. ALWAYS BULK BUYING: Organic whole & crushed tomatoes. Oh, and hanky panky panties. FAVORITE LOCAL PLACES TO SHOP: H Audrey, Imogene + Willie. G&G Interiors. WORKOUT WARDROBE: Vintage, (ill-fitting) tees tied up, with lululemon leggings. I just workout at home using The Mirror. PACKING ESSENTIALS: PACKING CUBES! I haven’t traveled without packing cubes in who knows how long. It works with the rolling technique, too. They’re a must. They keep everything separated and organized.

IN the CLOSET

HERO ITEMS: A silver bomber, velvet blazer, or vintage Japanese tourist jacket. Love to cover up I suppose. DAILY UNIFORM: A shrunken sweatshirt over a vintage tee with Levis or a sailorstyle wide leg pant & more than likely a sexy Birkenstock. MY LOOK: An ex-pat American living in Italy searching for truffles that’s slightly disheveled but going for that look intentionally. Lots of basics, but not basic. BEST ORGANIZATION TRICK: Hire a professional & don’t let sh*t get out of control in a pile somewhere. I also keep a donation basket inside the closet so if I try something on that doesn’t suit me anymor—in the basket it goes. HANGING UP: Velvet hangers, of course. Wooden for winter coats only. CLOSET I WOULD MOST LIKE TO HAVE: I would like all the things in Lucy Boynton’s closet.
