February Forecast – Julia Berolzheimer
February always feels like it should be a breather, but I can already tell this one is going to move fast. We’re barely into the month and my calendar is reading like a boarding pass — a lot of New York, a lot of meetings, and a lot of momentum.
Behind the scenes, things are shifting in a way that feels both exhilarating and overwhelming. Projects we’ve been building toward for years are starting to take real shape, and there’s an energy that comes with that: equal parts gratitude, pressure, and the feeling that you’re suddenly standing in the work you used to only talk about.
So, I’m leaning into a February that’s busy in the best way with a little travel, a little family time, a few things I can’t share just yet, and a lot I’m genuinely excited to bring you along for.
What We’re Doing
- New York, twice — back-to-back. I’m starting the month with two work trips to NYC (this week and next). We have meetings and a few things in motion that I’ll share as they become official.
- A winter break escape. The girls have a mid-month winter break, so we’re heading to Palm Beach for a long weekend. So many of you sent thoughtful recommendations, and we booked the Four Seasons — it was overwhelmingly the most-raved-about option.
- A Charleston night out, with a dress moment. We have a party at The Gibbes Museum this weekend, and I’ve been saving this dress to wear, which gives Chanel Spring runway vibes!
- Spring shopping, thoughtfully edited. There’s so much good spring arriving right now, and I did a deeper breakdown in this Substack post here.
- Thomas’s newest build with Chloe Digital. Thomas has been working on a new start-up called Coreli (you’re CORE link), an auto-generated brand page for your link in bio. You can join the waitlist here (launching soon).
- Exploring new investments. Thomas and I have been slowly investing in businesses over the years, and the past few weeks have been filled with meetings as we review a new round of opportunities. It’s exciting, and also a reminder of how much I enjoy other facets of business aside from what you see mostly here on the blog.
- My “book a month” goal. For February, I’m starting The Last Thing He Told Me.
- A health focus that feels overdue. I’m prioritizing my health right now, especially around chronic inflammation from Celiac and the arthritis in my knees (I’ve had since high school). I’m seeing Dr. Koniver here in Charleston to learn more about peptides — something I’ve been fascinated by and want to understand more deeply before making any decisions.
- My current non-negotiable: walking, weighted. I’ve been doing weighted vest walks on my treadmill at home. Life is full right now, and a 5am walk I can do without coordinating a class schedule is what’s working. I wear this vest in 10lbs and use this walking pad/treadmill.
What I’m Wearing (tidied + expanded)
- Tory Burch is having a moment for me. I recently wore this sheer chartreuse shirt and also ordered this turquoise skirt.
- Brooches are back (for me, at least). I bought this Chanel brooch from their latest drop and it’s inspired me to pull out older favorites again — like this feather one I found on Etsy last fall . I’m also loving this pink Prada one.
- A bubble skirt NYC look. This bubble skirt (I wore it with a black Chanel jacket) is such a fun silhouette.
A great travel tote. The Vee Collective tote has a place for everything and works perfectly as a weekender. - Still on the Ducie coat train. I called this out in Weekly Whims a few weeks back, and I’m still wearing it constantly.
- Chanel 25 update: I’m officially converted. A few weeks in and I’m a big fan of the Chanel 25. I ended up getting a second small size in yellow leather because it’s such a fantastic bag (wearing it here). There aren’t images online of the yellow leather, but it’s the same color as the suede here.
- A red belt that does the most. This one has been on repeat:
What I’m Buying (tidied + expanded)
- A rainbow stripe sweater that feels like an instant mood boost.
- Dress for Palm Beach
- A red refresh. I’m leaning into red right now to cut through winter dullness and carry into early spring:
- Butter yellow, continuing its run. It had a big moment last spring and it’s still going. I ordered these pants to wear with this tank and these heels for an easy evening look in Palm Beach.
- Ossou denim deep dive. After getting an invitation to their fashion week show (sadly I have to miss it), I went down a rabbit hole on their site and ordered three pairs. I’m going to do a Substack video styling them — here are the three:
- Polka-dot swim for spring. I keep hearing polka dots are going to be big, and I’m very into this Cult Gaia bikini:
- A chic set at a great price. This Le Bop set is such a good find:
What I’m Eyeing
- Tory Burch chartreuse blazer
- Valentino: jaw-on-the-floor level. Their couture collection in Paris last week was spectacular — I love Alessandro Michele’s maximalist take on Valentino. A few new arrivals worth bookmarking (or using as styling inspiration):
- Two pieces I can’t stop thinking about.
- Andrew Mukamal’s Margot Robbie styling. His styling for Margot’s Wuthering Heights press tour has been exceptional — every look feels considered and slightly surprising, balancing costume/time-period references with something modern and sharp:
This week’s Amazon edit is focused on beach-ready pieces, all under $100, the kind you’ll reach for again and again.
With warmer weather around the corner, these are the easy staples worth having on hand. Effortless to throw on, simple to style, and reliable for days that revolve around the water.
I pulled a mix of essentials and a few standout details: woven and crochet textures for that relaxed beach feel, an easy market tote, lightweight layers like crochet pants, and playful accessories, from shell jewelry to colorful hair claws, that add just enough personality.
Clean, versatile, and made for days that don’t require overthinking. Explore today’s curated collection below, and you can always browse more in our JB Amazon Shop and Amazon storefront.

Claire’s Life: Inside the Versace x Onitsuka Tiger SoHo Celebration in Caramel Leather and Chic Tai-Chi Sneakers
Last night, I stepped out in SoHo for the Versace x Onitsuka Tiger celebration, a chic coming-together between the Italian luxury house and the Japanese heritage brand. The event spotlighted a re-imagining of the iconic Tai-Chi sneaker, and I have to say—it was one of those moments where fashion meets function in the best way.
The sneakers were a standout. Think sleek, low-profile silhouettes crafted in supple leather and soft suede, elevated with metallic finishes like gold-dipped toes and silver-paneled uppers.
There were also soft pastel iterations—pink, yellow, and neutral tones—with contrast striping that nodded to Onitsuka Tiger’s signature design. The overall vibe felt polished yet wearable, giving a sporty classic a refined, Versace-level upgrade.
As someone who lives in heels and only reaches for sneakers to work out, I was genuinely impressed. These felt like the kind of sneakers you could style with a tailored look, a mini skirt, or even something more elevated for a day-to-night moment.
For the occasion, I wore a caramel leather Versace jacket and matching skirt set, paired with a ribbed knit top and a coordinating clutch. I finished the look with lace-up heels by Le Silla to keep things aligned with my usual aesthetic.
The collaboration feels like a true blend of heritage and innovation—where craftsmanship meets modern style. And if you’re like me and need a sneaker that can keep up with your fashion standards, this just might be it.

I feel like everyone needs a great summer dress in white or black — and this version from M.M.LaFleur looks fabulous.
I love the circular eyelet (so fresh and lovely!), the collar, the drop waist, and the shorter skirt lining. It feels sophisticated but fun — the kind of dress you could wear with flats on vacation but also with heels for date night.
It’s $529, at M.M.LaFleur, available in both white and black.
Some other cute possibilities for chic white summer dresses include these options from Z Supply, Staud, ASTR, Cleobella, and Peixoto. (For some nice black summer dresses, I love these from Michael Stars, Rails, Theory, Staud (exclusive to Shopbop!), Vince — and this stripey one is lovely!)

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
When I was first starting my career, I found a Calvin Klein dress at Macy’s that fit me perfectly, so I bought it in three colors.
I wore the heck out of those dresses in my junior associate years when I was still trying to figure out what on earth “business casual” meant in a white-shoe law firm. (And what it meant in 2010 is very different from what it means today!)
In any event, I still recommend Calvin Klein for building a work wardrobe on a budget, and this scuba crepe fit-and-flare is just begging for someone to buy it in all six colors. I really like the meadow green, but you can also grab black, navy, and gray basics.
The dress is $49.97 at Nordstrom Rack and comes in sizes 2-14.
