Outfits from New York

These are some outfits and new things that I’ve put together/bought while in New York City:


This is a black and white patterned dress from Urban Outfitters. It’s a part of the fall collection and it is not only very comfortable, but it has a nice cut out in the back. It works well with a scarf, belt, or cardigan.


These are the last two scarves I bought. I have a large collection of scarves but I really like these ones. The one on the left is black and white scarf with a skull and crown pattern. I also bought this at the LF sale for $14. The scarf on the right is a cheetah print scarf, which is a fun pattern when paired with a sweater or jacket for the fall. It is from H&M and was only $6!


This is a skirt from Brandy Melville. It is made out of the most comfortable and stretchy cotton. It is short in the front and it then tapers out to a full-length skirt in the back. Not only is it so comfy but it also comes in several different colors/patterns.


The skirt can also be brought up to the chest and worn over a white tank top and pencil skirt. It then functions as a shirt/dress. Its pretty crazy but it’s a nice variation on the outfit and it is a real eye catcher.


This is a white blouse from LF. I bought it during the only sale of the season and it was 60% off. It is so comfortable and light plus I like the lace design on the edges.


This is a lace dress from the LF sale as well. It has a lace top and chiffon bottom. It is rather see through so I like to layer it with a nude colored slip, or a black one as shown here.


This is a green sweater make out of a stretchy cotton material. It can be worn with a tank top or just a bandeau. Both the sweater and bandeau are from Brandy Melville, which is a really nice store in SoHo New York. Their online shopping has a smaller selection and is more expensive so I recommend going to the store to see their clothes. All of the clothes are made in Italy and are of really nice quality for a very reasonable price ($6-55).


This is a blazer from Urban Outfitters and a pair of vintage Levi jean cut-offs. Both are really comfortable and the blazer helps dress the shorts up.



These are the two bags I have been using most this fall. The one on the left is a nice quilted bag with a leather and chain strap. It is the perfect size for your phone, wallet, and a snack. Its light, easy to carry, and it goes with most outfits. It is from Forever21 and it was only $20. The bag on the right is from LF and it is a brown leather purse. It was about $35 with the 60% off sale. It is really deep and holds almost anything you need to carry. From notebooks to an extra cardigan this bag will always have what you need when you’re out.

[Lindsay's] Pick

My favorite of these three is Natalie Portman's outfit. The absence of any jewelry really allows us to appreciate the dress. Also, the black shoes really stand out. Portman does a good job of making a crazy dress wearable and artistic.

The ladies at this year's Emmy Awards were red hot!








Here's Adrianne Palicki, Angela Kinsey, Kate Winslet, Kathy Griffin, Kerry Washington, Leah Michelle, and Nina Dobrev wearing the most popular color at the event. My personal favorite is Nina Dobrev's gown from the Donna Karen Resort 2012 collection.

New fashionista on the block




Elle in Super 8

Dakota and Elle


Elle's Marc Jacobs campaign


Elle Fanning is definitely a new fashionista to look out for. She was great in Super 8, her big movie debut, so if you haven't seen it yet, go do it! But I've also started to notice her wearing some big fashion names: doing an advertisement for Marc Jacobs, front row with her sister, Dakota, at the Rodarte show, and just doing some all around beautiful modeling.

Maximize





These are some beautiful maxi skirts/dresses from Christian Siriano's Spring 2012 collection. I love their simplicity and the way they add elegance to the t-shirts he pairs them with. I've been pretty into maxis lately. Here are some others I like:

Interview with Anna Wintour



Anna Wintour, the Editor-In-Chief of Vogue, is what people usually think of as the real life devil wearing Prada... But what is she really besides a successful and driven woman? See for yourself
