What I Wore: NYFW

Everyday since about a week ago, I feel like I've been waking in a dream. At first, it was because I couldn't believe I was going to NYC for festivities related to New York Fashion Week. Next, because I was at NYC and being asked by street style photographers at Lincoln Center if I would mind if they took a picture of me (Thought Bubble: What the what?! Someone twist my hand...this can't be real.). And finally, since my return home, I've been endlessly reliving my dreamy experience through precisely seven pictures that I was able to take on my phone.

There's nothing quite like the challenge of re-purposing summer pieces to be worn in the Fall. It takes all of my will power to pack away my colorful summer wardrobe, so I try to squeeze every last bit of wear out of it before bidding the final adieu.

Not the best decision for me or the husband, let me tell you.

Clearly, I need to be color tamed and most definitely, you're secretly happy that you're days away from seeing pictures of the color-illiterate eskimo version of me (Read: snowsuit weather coming soon! Ugh.). But in my defense, this dress looks like the all of the Birds of Paradise had a meeting and decided to thank me for spreading kindness in the world with rather personal souvenirs, and it would be so ungracious to refuse such a gift.

Modus Operandi around this time of year: Go into major overdrive and pull out all the stops on summer dressing. I'm a scrambling fool trying to load on as many summery favorites as I can into any single outfit whenever I dress, and the result isn't always the prettiest. But hey, when the sun's as much of a rare commodity as it is up here in the North East, a girl's gotta do what she's gotta do!

The Sundress

How is it that it's the end of August and almost Fall when I'm writing a post on the sundress, an absolute staple in any woman's summer wardrobe? Someone needs to slow the time down, I tell you. It's flying by like nobody's business, and I'm not even half done with summer fashion yet! In the spirit of making the most of what is given (including money, as I shall make clear soon enough!), I'm wearing my favorite summer sundress in today's post before it's too late!
