When:

March 21, 2008 evening

What:

Scarf: gift from my BFF Rachel, from Thailand Dress: La Vedette Tights: We Love Colors Shoes: thrifted, Beacon’s Closet

Where:

Supporting college athletics, boozing in Manhattan

Why:

Thanks to a pitcher of sangeria and a limited amount of time (20 minutes) to get ready, I threw this mess of stuff on.  Rachel had just given me the scarf as a belated birthday present from Thailand. I fell in love with it, so decided to work it into the outfit. The purple dress was still hanging in the front of my closet after wearing it last Sunday night. Bingo! And then then tights? That’s my school pride. Plus that match the newly thrifted shoes I wanted to wear.  If my while ensemble hadn’t scared my friends enough, I put on my leopard coat to cheer on the Hoosiers (next year? maybe?)

When:

April 24, 2008

What:

Hat: Penguin Dress: La Vedette Bag: HK Scarf: thrifted Shoes: DSW Shades: HK

Where:

Work, LUNCH AT BRYANT PARK!

Why:

You know when you have that one dress, or piece in your closet, that you’re saving for some right time or place? I think this dress is it. I was thinking about saving it for Friday, but why?! I’ll think of something good enough to wear then. I’m feeling it now.  I feel a little like a celebrity going all incognito with the hat and glasses. I’m ready to have a good day. Lets go.

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).
