What I Wore:
When:
March 15, 2008
What:
Hat: gift of Katie the Milliner Scarf: self made with some remnant fabric Sweater: Betsey Johnson Belt: vintage, thrifted Dress (as skirt): Plenty by Tracy Reese Tights: We Love Colors Shoes: Clarks
Where:
Brunch with m’ladies in the East Village, thrifting afterwards
Why:
March is said to come in like a lion, but today was much more lamb. The early spring months are the hardest for me to get dressed. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping and the high is 52 degrees. While it does feel warm in contrast to the sub-freezing temps, lets be real people, its still not sunny and 70. But today was just a day I felt like being more spring than winter. So I mix elements of both. I started with a summery Plenty by Tracy Reese dress. Bare legs/arms still aren’t gonna cut it for me so that means tights and a sweater. The hat is a great thing to throw on when you’re a bit chilly and pop off when you’re a tad too warm. And I’m obsessed with scarves, so instead of something warm and fuzzy, I put on this huge scrap of fabric that I hemmed around the edges. I also love belts for sort of being the bow on a present- wraps the whole look up. These shoes (Artisans by Clarks) feel vintagey to me, but are insanely comfortable to walk (and run!) in. Not pictured is my latest spring buy- a thrifted, vintage trench (which always look effortless and chic).

What:
Blouse: vintage, thrifted Cardigan: cheap from HK Jeans: Topshop (on loan for a meeting) Flats: Target
Where:
Meeting with a buyer, in the office
Why:
Because colored denim is fresh! I am loving purple and green for summer/spring. These are on loan from the office. When doing something reallyboldkeep your other elements rather neutral. Like a crazy printed blouse. You’re sensing the sarcasm. Right?
No matter how you mix it up, just don’t get delusional and think you’re rainbow bright. Keep your colorcard minimal.
