WAAAAIIIIIIT. IT'S NYFW? I guess I can stop exing through my calendar days now :) Heads Up! I'm updating this post as the days and the shows continue.

DAY 1: TADASHI SHOJI. Such beautiful gowns and colors. Anyone have any galas I can attend :)

DAY 2: Peter Som started off with a ROAR from and Jason Wu showed a line that speaks to my heart. Lace, leather, high waisted looks with chic bare backs. And Hillary Rhoda looks STUNNING in Rebecca Minkoff. Charlotte Ronson ends the night with a black and white jumper (last image, 3rd model) that I would probably give my left pinky to own. #justsayin

Love,

happy: bcbg max azria maxi dress + lilly pulitzer bangle

JUST TO BE CLEAR, it's definitely Spring in NYC right now... right? Sunshiny and warm with a slight chill in the air. Aaaahhh, you can almost see the lightning bugs :) And don't even think about locking them in a mason jar for a live nightlight, you jerk. 



This BCBG MAXI AZRIA maxi dress actually makes my heart sing. And it sounds like cherubs. And it makes me happy.

Find something colorful that makes you happy and wear it until the seams rip. Advice taken.

it's the colors that get me: yumi kim blazer & maxi

SOMETIMES, WHEN YOU know, you know. I walked into the Yumi Kim flagship store in the LES and my mouth dropped. To the floor. 


Oh, hello there. Why aren’t you a perfectly sculpted maxi dress with an ohmygod color combination. The print is Pucci-esq, but this price tag doesn't cause my hand to momentarily pause (just for a second) as I hand over my credit card. #lifechoices
I tend to stray from too-girly (the tomboy in me actively shrivels), so I boy’d it with these suede boots. The chains jingle when I walk. Because they were made for walkin'.
Maxi dresses make me wanna frolic. Especially this crazy print and this muted tone. Aaaand now I'm lusting.

And The Skull says HI. Isn't she key-uuute?
