February 19, 2009

What:

J.Crew Cashmere Sweater: thrifted
Neck scarf: vintage, thrifted
Bracelets: Target, Beacon’s Closet
Jeans: Arden B, free from work
Boots: Gift

Where:

Work, Dentist (Ahhhh!) and Tea

Why:

Just trying to keep my spirits high with bright colors!! Its sort of that “new outfit” feel because most of these pieces are relatively new to my closet.  I just love that feeling. I need to do my taxes pronto so I can go on a big shopping spree with my return check. Stimulate the economy and stimulate my closet. ;)

What:

Dress: designed and constructed by yours truly
Belt (worn backwards): mall store
Tights: Target
Boots: Gift

Where:

Work

Why:

Well, this is the third outfit I not only tried on, but took pictures of.  This is why its good to have some really simple pieces in your closet when you just can’t figure out what to wear. The weather in NYC is warmish and that makes heavy wools feel all wrong. But its still no Miami either. Balancing a short sleeve jersey dress with heavy tights and boots works just right for me today. Plus its like wearing an all over body sweatshirt. How cozy!!

When:

February 2, 2009

What:

Sweater: Alpaca Peruvian Sweater, gift from J
Blouse: Penguin
Belt: Lucky Brand (free)
Skirt: free from work
Tights: We Love Colors
Boots: Banana

Where:

Office

Why:

On Friday, one of my very best friends stopped by NYC after a 2 week trip to Peru.  He was super thoughtful and brought me back this beautiful alpaca sweater. This is the second time I’ve worn it since then! I love it. The rich earthtones are keeping me happy and warm. I’m wearing it with a plaid skirt (totally clashing! mwahahah!) in the same color story. I wanted the sweater to be the highlight so I went monotone on the tights and boots. I also have a shot of my coat and scarf in there. Its a vintage piece that had a fur collar (I took that off).

Wearing a new outfit always makes me happy. Even happier that I will always think of my friend each time I wear the sweater. Happy Monday.

Dress: Zara

Where:

Work

Why:

Just felt like keeping it super simple today. Initially I went with black tights but decided to rock out the purple instead. I’ve missed them! Its going to be a busy day in the office and I just wanted a no-fuss look.

Office, Field trip to NJ

Why:

Today I’m going on a little field trip to check out whats going on in the market and to some of our retailers. I knew I needed to be comfortable, wearing flat shoes and nothing too ‘out there’. I’m also excited to bring along my new Day Camp bag from the 60s (bought this weekend for $5 at Brooklyn Flea). Let’s get inspired!!
