Everyone suddenly has a Carolyn Bessette obsession, and I’m no exception. I even upgraded my Hulu subscription just so I could watch Love Story uninterrupted.We admire her not just for the modern-day fairy tale she lived with JFK Jr., but for who she was on her own: independent, successful in her own right, and somehow completely unknowable to the public. That quiet mystery is part of the obsession. The one thing people could see about her life was her outward appearance. Her clothes, makeup, and hair.Like every great “it girl,” she became a style icon. Her style was timeless in the truest sense: classic, minimal, and effortless. She skipped loud logos, bright colors, and busy prints in favor of quiet tailoring and clean lines.And now, as everyone leans into capsule wardrobes more than ever, we scoured the internet to find pieces from locally owned and operated Los Angeles stores that feel exactly like what Carolyn would shop for if she were one of us right now. Maybe this is our way of manifesting a modern-day fairy tale for ourselves...
