Happy Monday! Here are some shots of what I'm wearing to shows this morning during New York Fashion Week. We're only halfway through, so keep up with me on instagram for more from NYFW!
To all who entered the Nordstrom giveaway last week, thank you! I've notified the three winners, and will announce their first names here once I hear back from everyone. Thanks for participating!
There are few retailers that nail workwear season after season like Ann Taylor. After perusing the new fall collection, I can confidently say that this season is no exception. Today, I’m sporting this mixed tweed jacket in shades of blue-gray with black leather accents and a complementary tweed pencil skirt. Tweed is about as classic as textiles get, but Ann Taylor does an amazing job of modernizing the tried and true fabric with a cropped silhouette and leather detailing. I kind of feel like this jacket is the female workwear equivalent of Cal Naughton Jr’s tuxedo t-shirt in Talladega Nights. C’mon. You know the quote.
P.S. If you haven’t entered the giveaway yet, get on it! The raffle closes this Friday at 5pm. Check out this post for all the details.
P.P.S. The ease with which I can associate any life situation to a Will Ferrell movie is thanks to my darling brothers. It plagues me.

As you may have noticed, I’ve been on a bit of a black and white binge lately. The simplified color palette has been mostly inadvertent, but somehow really refreshing in the transition to fall. If you’re a color fan (like I am, usually), don’t worry, I promise I haven’t made any kind of chromatic vow of silence. Many more bright hues to come!
