In my previous two posts, I’ve shared a couple outfits that I wore during New York Fashion Week, which (mercifully) culminated today. Both of these looks (including this plaid on plaid ensemble and this layered shirt dress and houndstooth sweater dress combo) could easily be worn in many office environments. Today, however, I’m sharing snaps of several more outfits from the past fashion-frenzied week, not all of which are office appropriate (you can decide which!). Rest assured, I’m not signaling a directional shift in the blog’s workwear-focused content, I just wanted to share a few ensembles that I sported at recent fashion shows and events where professional dress was not of primary concern… at least judging by the man I saw in a sequined. spandex. leopard. bodysuit.
Take a second to digest that image. I won’t tell you about the back hair bearing cut-out in the rear. Good for him, I say. Express that beautiful soul.

Per usual, the ensembles pictured today mix high and low items, so for the more expensive merchandise, as always, I’ve tried to find similar affordable pieces for people at all budget levels. For more discussion of fashion week trends and shows, check out this great Gotham Magazine piece that includes some of my thoughts on what we saw from the runways in the past week. While not everyone may be pre-ordering each runway look from Moda Operandi, there’s so much inspiration from the catwalk that can be incorporated into what we wear everyday―both in and out of the office. So despite my overwhelming level of exhaustion after eight-plus days of mode mania (some of which was documented on instagram), I’m still blinded by the artistry and basking in the glow of the unparalleled creativity that was on display in the past week here in New York City. I look forward to sharing some of that inspiration here on the blog… Happy Friday!
