Snapped at around 9am, this is definitely one of my throw it on and GO GO GO looks. I was running SO late, sprinting from the East Village down to Soho for an early morning breakfast get together. Whenever I’m in a hurry, it’s easy for me to just put on a few light layers. Rolled up sleeves perfection. Helps too when I want to nearly disrobe/take a few layers off when I’m entering the steamy subways (ew). Oh and hello, there is a new twist to the skinny jean, skinny CORDS. Yes, I’m obsessed obsessed obsessed! Desperately on the search for a similar pair in a deep brown or dark red. A jean that easily makes just about any casual outfit look cool is GREAT, considering I’m a lazy one when it comes to getting dressed early in the morning. Speaking of which, I’ve also been extremely, unforgivably lazy with my bangs these past few days. A mini bottle of dry shampoo is always with me, yet doesn’t quite do the hair fix compared to the power of a vintage hat! This was the one I bought back in March from Spain…oh bringing back memories of Las Ramblas and all it’s glory! With a label inside stating “tramp,” I swear it’s one-of-a-kind. Haven’t found one as perfect since. HAPPY WEEKEND LOVEBUGS.

GISELE Japan Magazine NYC Photoshoot
(White + Warren jacket, Hallelu blouse, Raven Denim, 80%20 shoes)
Take a peek at my feature inside the latest GISELE Japan Magazine! I remember shooting with GISELE back at my home in California, and was super excited when I heard they wanted to photograph me again, but in my newest home, New York! We shot in the beautiful DUMBO area of Brooklyn. I also gave the magazine a peek inside my wardrobe and jewelry collection, showing my staple pieces for fall in the city. Current obsessions: cashmere sweaters, stripes, bright skirts, and rad accessories!
Before Dark
Evenings in NYC are getting more and more chilly! I’m already seeing people sporting scarves under their jackets! This weekend, which was blessed with clear skies and warmth, was just an exception. I made sure to be outdoors as much as possible, knowing that rainy days are ahead. Just sitting in a park with a tee shirt, jeans, and a cold drink was refreshing. As I’m transitioning into fall, I see myself in trousers and cropped sweaters layered over button downs! Boyish clothes are just so much more comfy when it is cold out! I’ve also been sporting an adorable pair of penny loafers by Tory Burch. I swear they make any look instantly more relaxed and chic. Because I walk everywhere and I’m constantly on my feet, slipping into these little guys feels like heaven at the end of the day!
