Sneaking a bite from A Piece Of Toast

Sometimes while reading blogs, I'll come across a really great questionnaire and think to myself, "If I were important enough to be asked these questions, how would I answer?" You might remember the one I borrowed from Matchbook Magazine recently. Today's is taken from one of my favorite style sites, A Piece Of Toast.



.Describe your personal style in five words or less:  Jewish girl in Wasp’s clothing. Kidding! Classic, preppy and feminine.
.Who/What inspires your personal style, influencing what you're drawn to and what you end up wearing? Everything. Store windows, magazines, catalogs, blogs, strangers on the street. I draw inspiration from wherever I can.
.What is an item you cannot live without or what are some of your wardrobe essentials?  LV Speedy, Chanel 2.55, J. Crew Pixie pants, ballet flats, DVF wrap dresses, all of my lululemon. I would not be me without my Cartier Love bracelet.
.What is your most recent purchase?  My Longchamp Le Pliage Medium Tote in Fir Green.
.Where have you found some of your most treasured style items? My mother’s closet.
.What is your go-to jewelry routine?  Statement does not always mean big. Every single piece of jewelry I wear has significance. Most days I stick to one necklace and watch, but I try to mix it up by wearing big earrings at night or stacking on bangles.
.If you could meet any designer who would it be and why?  The thought in of itself is very intimidating! But probably Tory Burch.
.What's the best style advice you've ever given or received?  Be comfortable, but not too comfortable.

If you have a blog, you should do this one too! Or leave your answers in the comments - I'd love to read 'em.
