March was all about stepping into yourself and watching the world and hopefully yourself blossom. April is a reminder to tend to yourself, whether that is through pursuing things that are creatively fulfilling or spark new passion. This month is about doing things that light you up, being intentional about who you allow in your life, and letting go of what no longer serves you.</p><div

Even though I wish the moon tonight would glow a lovely shade of pink, it sadly won&#8217;t. However, it is a nod to Phlox subulata, a wildflower native to eastern North America. This full moon is not about rushing or forcing things into fruition, but rather letting things even out without forcing them. Not everything needs to be figured out. This full moon is also a great reminder to tend to the things you truly love; friends, family, community, and yourself. Allow yourself time to care for these people and the things you love. By doing so, you support your own process of blossoming into your truest self.</p><p>April 17th brings the New Moon in Aries. This new moon is highly focused on tending to yourself first, taking the time and energy to understand what truly fills your cup. It is also a moment to seek things and people who genuinely appreciate your passion, drive, and creativity. After all, Aries season is all about that fiery, forward moving energy. Walk through this new moon with self-assurance.</p><p>Lastly, we round out the month on April 22nd with Earth Day. Our lovely and divine Earth is ancient, alive, and wise. While for many it might just be another reason to post a carousel or TikTok video (no shame, it&#8217;s literally what I do every day), I think this day is a powerful reminder of the collective responsibility we all have to care for the very thing that sustains us. I am by no means perfect or even remotely close to being a poster child for sustainability, but I do my best to do my part.</p><p>Doing your part can look very different for everyone. For me, it means buying the majority of my clothes secondhand and refraining from following massive fashion trends, spending time outdoors in gratitude (no phone, no music, no distractions), eating more plants, educating others, buying food seasonally and from local farmers, and planting and tending my garden. Everything in nature, including us, is interwoven and connected. So give the Earth the flowers it deserves, literally and metaphorically!</p><p>Also, Aries season ends on April 19th, and then we enter Taurus season, which runs from April 20th to May 20th (my birthday!

Another favorite way of mine to integrate crystals into daily life is by putting them into a water bottle (make sure to check which are water safe beforehand) or wearing them as jewelry.</p><p>My standout crystal this month is Diamond, which feels a bit ironic because this has been the most difficult gemstone I have ever worked with. Tyler and I are currently putting the final touches on my engagement ring, and this entire process has been quite the journey. I will not go into too much detail in this post about the full process of creating this engagement ring, but long story short, our diamond was lost, people were fired, cortisol levels were through the roof, many tears were shed, and countless engagement ring renderings were created. I am hopeful that by the end of this month, Tyler will have the ring in his possession, and we will finally be able to enjoy our beautiful diamond in May. </p><p>Although I was not very familiar with the energetic properties of diamonds before this, I have grown quite fascinated with them since starting this process back in 2025. Diamonds are conductors and amplifiers. They absorb thoughts and feelings and radiate them outward. They are also a stone of love and devotion, which makes sense as to why they are the stone of choice for a wedding ring.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2

For all of 2026 I am using The Wyrd Sisters Deck. Every single month, the card I pull has aligned with what is unfolding energetically. They quite literally fly out of the deck when I shuffle.</p><p>This month&#8217;s card was Candle for Creativity. Of course, one of the words I chose for April was creativity, so it felt only fitting that the Creativity card presented itself face first while I was shuffling.</p><p>Aries season represents, to me, a reminder to pursue the things you are boldly passionate about, and to me, that is synonymous with creativity. When I am able to be completely creative, I flourish. This card is a reminder to look around you. The muses are forever circling.

March for me this year is all about refinement, clarity, and momentum.

March is also a physical reminder of the world blooming around us with Ostara (The Spring Equinox) when winter melts away and spring blossoms as daylight starts to stretch.</p><div

in Virgo. I believe this full moon is not the time to be manifesting newness into our lives but rather a moment to release and pause. By releasing, you are relinquishing control of the outcome and embracing the divine, allowing the path to unfold before you. Trust the notion that doing less can accomplish more.</p><p>March 13th brings the New Moon in Pisces, a time to lean into your intuition. It beautifully complements the energy of the full moon, inviting patience &amp; trust in the unseen. Do not be afraid to dream big and believe in those who divinely guide you. What is meant for you will always find you.</p><p>Next up is Ostara or the Spring Equinox. It marks the day when light and dark are equal. We are stepping into one of my favorite times of year when the sun lingers just long enough and everything in sight feels like it is budding with newness. The grass, the flowers, and everything in between comes alive. It is also my favorite time to be home in Northern California because everything slowly awakens and comes back to life. I do not think I will make it back home this month, but I will embrace all that LA has to offer.</p><p>A little further down I will share a ritual and a special altar I would create to celebrate Ostara.</p><p>Also, do not forget Aries season starts on March 21st and ends April 19th. Aries season is a time to reignite raw passions &amp; boldly pursue your goals.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!slAu!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!slAu!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!slAu!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!slAu!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!slAu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!slAu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic" width="400" height="500" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1350,&quot;width&quot;:1080,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:400,&quot;bytes&quot;:127879,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/i/189797086?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!slAu!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!slAu!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!slAu!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!slAu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6f4c1072-28de-4e06-8938-16d11a5ddfb0_1080x1350.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>My favorite part of each month is selecting a few standout crystals to keep on me person or close to my bedside.

For all of 2026 I am using The Wyrd Sisters Deck. Every single month, the card I pull has aligned with what is unfolding energetically. They quite literally fly out of the deck when I shuffle.</p><p>This month&#8217;s card is The Broom &#8211; Cleanse, and when I read the description, I laughed out loud because it is the true embodiment of spring. This card represents the physical &amp; energetic reset we should all be doing this month. Sweep away the dust, both from your home and from your mind. By clearing what no longer serves you, you create space for all the newness that is making its way into your orbit.</p><p>I love creating altars, and one of my favorite ones from last year was to celebrate Ostara. Here are a few things you can add to your altar to honor the Spring Equinox.</p><p>The colors for Ostara are light, so think green, white, pink, and yellow. Fill your altar with flowers and more flowers. Pick up some flower bulbs from Trader Joe&#8217;s and watch them bloom on your altar. Add symbols that represent Ostara like eggs (grab some candy eggs), lambs, butterflies, and rabbits. Crystals I would use include Aquamarine, Amethyst, Citrine, Aventurine, Clear Quartz, Apophyllite, Golden Healer, and Rose Quartz.</p><p>Share photos of your altar if you end up creating one!!</p><div

wear last week. Last week, I was all about red, but a new favorite color has emerged: chartreuse! I&#8217;ve actively avoided it for years, assuming it wouldn&#8217;t suit my skin tone. Consider this your sign to branch out and try a clothing piece you&#8217;ve always avoided for the same reason, you might be surprised!! Chartreuse is definitely making its way into my wardrobe from now on!</p><p>I&#8217;ve included videos and links to everything. If you notice an alternative option listed, just know I&#8217;ve selected an item from the same exact place that&#8217;s the closest match and one I personally love. Enjoy, my loves!</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

I was hit with a wave of outfit ideas at the start of the week, and then this cold completely wiped me out, hence the lack of fits. I&#8217;m obsessed with the color palette from the few I did manage to wear though. I&#8217;ve really been loving red lately and have been sneaking subtle pops of it into each look. I&#8217;m manifesting that I&#8217;ll feel better soon so I can actually bring to life all the outfits I was so inspired to create this week! </p><p>I&#8217;ve included videos and links to everything. If you notice an alternative option listed, just know I&#8217;ve selected an item from the same exact place that&#8217;s the closest match and one I personally love. Enjoy, my loves!</p><p></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe

I spent the entire week trying to figure out what to wear and realized my outfit is the furthest thing from Vegas appropriate attire, and honestly, it&#8217;s fine. Thank goodness I don&#8217;t go often or at all, it&#8217;s just not my vibe lol. But I love celebrating my friends and will go absolutely anywhere to be around them! It&#8217;s been a windy and cold week in both LA and Vegas, so coats were definitely necessary. I ended up bringing out a few old pieces I forgot how much I loved!</p><p>I&#8217;ve included videos and links to everything. If you notice an alternative option listed, just know I&#8217;ve selected an item from the same exact place that&#8217;s the closest match and one I personally love. Enjoy, my loves!</p><p></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Monday</strong> | <em>1.5.26</em></p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;20dc6745-6148-45f0-ab71-a8f0fd277798&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p><strong>Sweater </strong>|<em> Assembly Label &#8212;

Genuinely, what the f***. I&#8217;ve been spending my holidays back home in Northern California with family. It&#8217;s freezing in NorCal, and I loveeeee it! I actually get to experience real winter weather, unlike in LA.</p><p>Now that 2026 is in full swing, I can fully say that I&#8217;m honestly not looking to change anything about my sense of style or fashion choices this year. I did in 2025, but honestly, I feel really in touch with my sense of style and don&#8217;t feel the need to embrace a &#8220;new me&#8221; in 2026, at least in the fashion and style capacity lol.</p><p></p><p>I&#8217;ve included videos and links to everything. If you notice an alternative option listed, just know I&#8217;ve selected an item from the same exact place that&#8217;s the closest match and one I personally love. Enjoy, my loves!</p><p></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Monday</strong> | <em>12.29.25</em></p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;503b6b0d-3825-4bad-9275-d40fa1bf172d&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p><strong>Blazer </strong>|<em> Thrifted</em></p><ul><li><p><em><a href="https://dissh.com/products/eden-bitter-choc-boxy-blazer?country=US&amp;region=dissh-nh&amp;variant=52393083306352&amp;nbt=nb%3Aadwords%3Ax%3A20032936498%3A%3A&amp;nb_adtype=pla&amp;nb_kwd=&amp;nb_ti=&amp;nb_mi=256041882&amp;nb_pc=online&amp;nb_pi=52393083306352&amp;nb_ppi=&amp;nb_placement=&amp;nb_li_ms=&amp;nb_lp_ms=&amp;nb_fii=&amp;nb_ap=&amp;nb_mt=&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=20024784693&amp;gbraid=0AAAAADwyg1hDjEwrzc0Udk13QCM52BlOz&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjw9obIBhCAARIsAGHm1mQC3XGQwuZYeZf3qMIR8ZzO-XJ__bEMXfGFfuF5ckoCxVI69hMbWnMaAlpPEALw_wcB">Alternative Option</a></em></p></li></ul><p><strong>Tee </strong>|<em> Mango -- <a href="https://shop.mango.com/us/en/p/women/t-shirts/basics/boat-neck-t-shirt_27001353">Boat Neck T-Shirt</a></em></p><p><strong>Pants </strong>|<em> Sezane -- <a href="https://www.sezane.com/us-en/product/new-70s-trousers/denim-blue#size-2">New 70&#8217;s Trousers</a> *gifted</em>*</p><p><strong>Shoes </strong>| <em>Zara &#8212;

I was hosting one of my best friend&#8217;s birthday parties at Tyler and I&#8217;s place, and a lot of prep went into Saturday&#8217;s celebration and just as much clean-up afterward. That meant I didn&#8217;t get any content for my outfits because I was the furthest thing from cute or fashionable on those days.</p><p>But for the days I did put together a proper outfit, I loved every single one of them.

We may be getting close to November, but this LA heat sure isn&#8217;t letting up. We&#8217;ve got a mini heat wave and rain happening at the same time, so I&#8217;m ditching most of my sweaters this week because I can&#8217;t handle the constant on-and-off layering.</p><p>I&#8217;ve been adding a touch of brown to every outfit lately, and I think I&#8217;ve officially decided that my fall and winter colors this year are going to be jewel tones. Cue Miranda Priestly saying, &#8220;Florals for spring? Groundbreaking.&#8221; I know, I know, jewel tones for fall and winter aren&#8217;t exactly revolutionary, but I don&#8217;t feel like I&#8217;ve fully embraced the entire palette before. This year I want to be a bit more intentional about expanding it.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Monday</strong> | <em>10.13.25</em></p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;158e22da-bbe5-470d-bad6-a990f180cb7c&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p><strong>Tee </strong>|<em> Brandy Melville &#8212;

Which means all these outfits are heavily inspired by the fall vibes, even though it&#8217;s verging on the high 80s here in LA. I do not care because I spend most days inside with the air conditioning on, so it&#8217;s fine. I had to tweak a few outfits because of the hot LA weather, but otherwise I think this week gave all the cozy fall outfits I&#8217;ve been craving to wear all year long. So many sweaters, and the loafers are officially making their return. During fall and winter, I need to be wearing closed-toe shoes with a little bit of a heel.</p><p>Enjoy my loves, and hopefully you&#8217;re feeling all the fall vibes too!</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Monday</strong> | <em>9.22.25</em></p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;6c5829c6-b16b-44a7-86d6-1f9220e11eca&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p><strong>Sweater</strong> |<em> Sezane &#8212;

This week I&#8217;m still leaning into the western and witchy vibes that have me so excited for the season. I went back home to Northern California for a bit to soak up the comforts of home and to escape the LA heat, but honestly it wasn&#8217;t much cooler. The mornings back home, though, are unmatched. There&#8217;s just something about that crisp air, being cozy with the windows open, and feeling that fresh breeze. Not hearing cars every second is pure bliss!</p><p>I&#8217;ve been keeping my promise to myself to wear at least one piece I don&#8217;t usually reach for, and I think I did a pretty great job this week. I even did a little DIY on one of my tees and now it&#8217;s something I&#8217;ll actually wear instead of letting it sit in my drawer. I hated the original neckline, but now it&#8217;s so much more fun. Enjoy, my loves!</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Monday</strong> | <em>9.8.25</em></p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;98b13dbb-3393-427b-a3bc-11838d37be9f&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p><strong>Sweater</strong> | <em>COS &#8212;

Back to LA I went and was greeted with even warmer weather. This week was a busy one, so I leaned into my closet staples since I honestly couldn&#8217;t be bothered to overthink outfits. Between the day-to-day content work, running socials for others, putting together pitches for a couple of brands for Stay Awhile, prepping for the Stay Awhile gathering we hosted on Thursday, and wrapping up the week with an event in beautiful Malibu along with a very overdue girls&#8217; lunch in Culver City on Sunday, it&#8217;s been a lovely, full week.</p><p>Toward the end of the week, I decided to get a little bolder with my outfits. By far, this Sunday look was my favorite outfit I&#8217;ve worn in a hot minute. Let me know some of your favorite places to find shawls because I&#8217;m on the hunt.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Monday</strong> | <em>9.15.25</em></p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;3f6e4522-a593-4fc1-b9ce-a2d613fedd34&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p><strong>Top</strong> | <em>Pink is Blue &#8212;

I&#8217;m a fall girl through and through, and the fact that fall is so close makes me absolutely over the moon. I had to kick off the -ber months in some of my favorite go-to pieces for this time of year along with a few new ones I&#8217;m loving!</p><p>I&#8217;ve been trying to embrace those cozy autumn vibes, but it&#8217;s still a little too hot in LA to fully commit all day long. The early mornings, though, are pure bliss!</p><p>This week, I&#8217;m leaning back into my favorite western and denim look that I always love during this season, but with a bit of a summery twist. I&#8217;m also massively behind on these posts, so brace yourselves for a little influx of outfit content over the next few days.

It&#8217;s another week of trying my best to get a bit more creative with my outfits, and I&#8217;ve been focusing on making the most of my existing wardrobe. Honestly, it&#8217;s been so fun restyling pieces I wear all the time or haven&#8217;t reached for in a hot minute. The weather has been all over the place this week, which is why I&#8217;ve got a mix of mini skirts, pants, and blazers making their way into my outfits!

One I didn&#8217;t capture (on Thursday) was a striped shirt with, you guessed it, red in it. I think I&#8217;m just craving fall and subconsciously weaving those autumn tones into my looks. The weather&#8217;s been a bit cooler, and I spent the weekend by the beach soaking up any and all the faux fall vibes. </p><p>I&#8217;ve also been making a conscious effort to pull out pieces I haven&#8217;t worn in a while, or the ones I usually avoid because styling them feels like a chore. A for this weeks vibe it has just been  yearning for fall energy, so here you go my lovelies. Wishing you all a lovely week ahead!</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe

uniform a couple of times a week. I even pulled out pieces I&#8217;d forgotten about or never really worn before. I was hoping Copenhagen Fashion Week would spark some fresh inspiration, but maybe it&#8217;s just taking its time to sink in. Hopefully the next few weeks will feel different. For now, it&#8217;s giving a bit of a creative slump with a touch of an eclectic vibe&#8230; lol.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Monday</strong> | <em>8.4.25</em></p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;e6afef42-0101-47ef-9b56-88e1b5ca1684&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p><strong>Shirt</strong> | <em>Topshop &#8212;

I wanted to emulate the inspiration above, but I clearly veered a bit off track. Lately, I&#8217;ve been feeling a little uninspired when it comes to putting outfits together, but Copenhagen Fashion Week is right around the corner, so hopefully it will spark some fresh creativity.</p><p>That said, I have to mention these unbelievably cool western mules I thrifted. As someone with fairly large feet, finding thrifted shoes that fit is not easy, so scoring a pair for just $10 feels like a miracle. Anyway, the shoes are pictured above!</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Monday</strong> | <em>7.28.25</em></p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;d5cd3070-9a45-4eb6-8bab-0f2e65488f6c&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p><strong>Shirt</strong> | <em>Free People &#8212;

You start the day in a sweater and jeans, and by 2 p.m. you&#8217;re peeling off any extra layers.</p><p>I got a few new items in the mail this week, and of course I had to wear them right away. Little did I know, I was apparently <em>very</em> fixated on the color red. It&#8217;s not a color I own much of, but it turns out it&#8217;s shockingly flattering on me. A red lip, however? Absolutely atrocious&#8212;trust me, I&#8217;ve tried.</p><p>All that to say, I didn&#8217;t realize how many little pops of red made their way into my outfits (and photos) this week. Enjoy this week&#8217;s Wardrobe Chronicles, and I&#8217;ll see you in the next one!</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://mackenziemontoya.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p><strong>Monday</strong> | <em>7.21.25</em></p><div class="native-video-embed" data-component-name="VideoPlaceholder" data-attrs="{&quot;mediaUploadId&quot;:&quot;35ccc46c-2ac8-4eb1-9b7b-9adad9b90e8f&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:null}"></div><p><strong>Shirt</strong> | <em>Zara &#8212;
