Refined & Relaxed

Relaxed Dressing for Fall

Just in case you haven’t checked your Instagram feed in the last 15 seconds, it’s New York Fashion Week guys.  That means everyone and their (stylish) mother is in town for a week of runway shows, presentations and parties.  It’s incredibly inspiring, partly dizzying and sometimes maddening, but regardless … I feel lucky to partake in a little part of the craziness.

What to Wear with Black Drawstring Pants

I started off the week light — in schedule and in style — wearing my new favorite pair of black drawstring pants and a burgundy tank.  Definitely a lighter look on the fashion week style scale, but this relaxed outfit went from launch party to runway show to dive bar to couch all in a matter of one night — a feat that I’m pretty sure Anna Wintour would approve of.  More goodness from my NYFW adventures to come — until then, follow me on Instagram for the latest and greatest. Happy NYFW loves!

  11. Stop! I’ve been following you on Instagram for forever and for some reason only now visited you blog. You style is fabulous and I am definitely following you on bloglovin. I’m seriously in love with this outfit. I literally want every piece and loved how you styled it, even down to the gorgeous dainty gold necklace.

    Obsessed!
