Let me tell you a sort of sad story about a twelve-year-old me.

Fall is so exciting, no?
It's the whole Back To School thing; I mean, I haven't set foot in a classroom for more years now than I care to think about (save for a very expensive and slightly misguided stint at NYU for a Masters in Hospitality Management)...but still: the chill in the air makes me want to buy things like pencils and Trapper Keepers. But since I don't have a ton of use for the aforementioned items, new, autumn-hued (and wildly affordable) clothing will have to do.
Let's talk pattern-mixing. I love how the sheer paisley blouse and the striped cardigan totally shouldn't work together, but do, and the reasons are these: 1) one pattern is small while the other is large, 2) both items are in the same color family, and 3) the rest of the outfit is simple as can be.
If The European Lady Can Do It, Take Two
Remember the pants-free look I tried out the other day, inspired by the European lady in Buy Buy Baby?
It worked out...okay.
If The European Lady Can Do It…
...obviously she was European, but I figured hey, I've...been to Europe. And I speak Spanish. And...well, that's all I got.
…And A Few More Weekend Snapshots
On Friday evening, Francesca and I ventured towards Lincoln Center to catch up over coffee at the Empire Hotel and to check out the goings-on at the tents. (That's my favorite outfit these days - an oversized, cozy flannel from Bolton's, of all places + stretchy black jeans.)
Baby Shower!
Granted, there are some hormones in the house at the moment (seriously, can coffee shops please stop playing "Your Song" whenever I walk through the doors? I prefer my lattes without a side of tears and embarrassment), but this weekend left me absolutely spinning with happiness.
Breakfast w/ Vogue, I.N.C., & Anna Dello Russo
Not a bad lineup for 8AM, hey?
So obviously I was a little nervous about what to wear. It being Fashion Week...and Vogue...and Conde Nast...then add in the whole about-to-give-birth thing...plus the rain thing...and...
Hmm.
Here's what I came up with:
Lazy Days
Did you know that late in pregnancy (and I'll officially be "full term" - not at my due date but nevertheless OK To Go if labor starts - in just a couple of weeks), your non-baby-growing organs get all bunched up somewhere around your shoulders?
Sparkle And Flair
I'm thrilled to say hey to autumn this year, for pretty obvious reasons (sixweekssixweekscan'twait!!!). But, you know, welcoming new life into the world aside, I'm also psyched about fall for totally superficial reasons, including...clothing.
Back In Plaid
Yessss!
