suit up for summer

while we all may not have anywhere very important to go, that doesn’t mean we can’t make our grocery store runs and socially distanced get-togethers feel special. this summer i have constantly been drawn to suits: short suits in particular. maybe it’s just the “pretty woman” vibes that a short suit brings but i can’t help but feel chic af in them! whether it’s a monochromatic look or a printed set, short suits are easy to mix-and-match and rock any day of the week!

bonjour 2020

after a quick train ride from london, we arrived to the city of lights! paris has always been my favorite city (did you know i studied abroad here!?) and i was so excited to be back…especially to ring in the new year! while we opted for a more low key itinerary compared to london, we did have a few highlights on the schedule! the first being our “big” plans on new years eve - we went to go see swan lake! i know…the provost are crazy party animals haha! and our big meal of the trip was to le jules verne: restaurant in the eiffel tower by michelin-starred chef frédéric anton.

there's no place like chrome

while i’m not really a fan of halloween…i know shocking because of how much i love fall…i couldn’t resist getting in the spirit when the invite to caroline’s wizard of oz themed bash came around. while i had the dorothy shoes already in my closet, i opted for put on a silver sequin suit and go as the tin man! …well if the tin man and carrie bradshaw hung out on a regular basis haha!

blazer: asos (also love this set here)
pants: asos
shoes: gianvito rossi
tinman hat: amazon

the lost outfits

it’s been a while since i’ve posted on the blog. while part of the reason is because i really haven’t had much to say, but it’s really mostly due to the fact that i have been really discouraged about losing my hard drive. i know i don’t want to belabor the point anymore but losing 40,000 photos of not only client and personal photos but my final project for my photography program really hurt…like really hurt. i felt like i lost an arm and it just took me a while to really come to terms with the fact that it’s never going to come back…i know, dramatic but whatever…

jacket: tory burch
sweater: and other stories

walk the dot

suits, recently, have been my favorite things to throw on (see here) so when i saw blair eadie’s collection had no shortage of matching suits, i couldn’t help myself but to buy one! …yeah yeah yeah okay two! and the best part about blair’s collection in collaboration with halogen, was the versatility and interchangeableness (is that even a word?) with one another so i felt so comfortable pairing this polka dotted blouse with the printed suit to complete the look!

suit: halgoen x atlantic-pacific (jacket and pants)
top: halgoen x atlantic-pacific
shoes: sam edelman
bag: m2malletier
earrings: chanel
bracelets: cartier

suit up

with fall officially in full swing, i can finally bring out all of my layers! and let me tell you it has seemed like forever since i have been able to strut around the city in a jacket or coat and not be uncomfortably hot. thankfully on one of my shoot days with lydia a few weeks ago it was cool enough to sport this matching set in soho…and i think you can tell how happy i was! and of course, it didn’t hurt that this suit was under $150!

suit: asos (jacket and pants)
top: tory burch (old, similar here and here)
shoes: dior (buy them used here)
bag: mark cross
headband: lele sadoughi
sunglasses: linda farrow

it's about time

as many of you remember, i had the most amazing time this year at the veuve clicquot polo classic. one thing that i didn't mention, was that i was approached by two men from the new york times style section and they asked to photograph and interview me about my outfit. queue the internal screaming! i tried my best to play it "cool" but i think you all can imagine how "not cool" i was. i immediately ran back to dana and freaked out about it for roughly 10 minutes (okay way longer than 10 minutes). my initial thought was to instastory the experience but my better judgement knew not to jinx it: an interview wasn't a guarantee to be in the paper. so i waited. i checked the two sunday papers following the classic but saw nothing as i assumed the style section was only published on that day. i began to give up hope thinking that i may have missed it  or was not included in the article but then the unthinkable happened: i received a facebook notification, while at work, where someone had mentioned that i was seen in the paper. i don't think i've ever googled anything so fast! and there it was, right before my eyes...myself in the new york times style section...and it was about time!
