Fall Fashion: Buffalo Check
Top: Line & Dot. Shorts: DL1961, now on sale. Shoes: Tibi. Arm Party: Kenneth Jay Lane | Kenneth Jay Lane | Lucien Piccard, similar. Now that Summer has come to a close, even if it doesn’t feel like it yet, I have been working on building my fall/winter wardrobe with some key pieces. I found this Buffalo Check blouse from Line & Dot on Shopbop and knew I had to have it. Flannel and plaid are and have been key for me for fall and winter but I haven’t really had much, if anything, in a Buffalo Check before. I love how this top ... Read more...
Zimmermann SS15
The Zimmermann runway show would have to be the show I was most looking forward to the weeks leading up to Fashion Week. When I reached out, I really didn’t think I would get an invite.

My First Day of shows at NYFW: Supima Competition, Jay Godfrey

The collections were beautiful. Each student was asked to design a capsule collection using premium Supima cotton denims, knits, corduroys, twills, and shirting. I was so impressed with how they were able to manipulate the fabric and make very unique pieces that from the front row looked very rich, ... Read more...
NYFW Day 2 Outfit
I didn’t even really realize while I was packing but after reviewing my day one outfit and my day two outfit there’s a definite black and white trend with a pop of red, totally on point for Fashion Week, if you ask me! Day one pop of red was my Burberry handbag and my day two pops of red were in my Dooney & Bourke floral print clutch (it's technically a makeup bag if you ask Dooney & Bourke but it works perfectly as a clutch) and my Christian Louboutin heels. Day one outfit was form fitting and on day two I opted for a full ... Read more...
