Winter Staples

February 6th, 2012



Ray-Ban Aviators
, Ella Moss Vest, Club Monaco Blouse, Rag & Bone Skirt, Reed Krakoff Bag, Balenciaga Heels, Essie Chinchilly + Set in Stones Nailpolishes

Since I’m leaving for New York tomorrow, I’ve been pulling out my winter staples that have been lying dormant in the back of my closet all season. This neglected faux fur vest (that’s sadly no longer available) is one of my favorite finds, since the back is knit, so it doesn’t feel too bulky. It’ll be the ideal layering piece under blazers or on top of sweaters for some of my more casual meetings over the next couple of weeks.

    Such a great look for winter! A fur vest can be paired with just about anything and love the structured and sophisticated leather skirt! xoxo

    I guess this is a classic difference between those from Cali and those that aren’t. Then again, I’m from the country part of Upstate NY, and don’t really follow “fashion”. This outfit strikes me as entirely impractical and uncomfortable looking. Am I truly the only one to come on here and speak the truth instead of cowtowing???

    ps. hope your sandalled feet love the 25 degree NY weather. ;)
