Real talk: I loved getting dressed up for NYFW, but was already ready to kick my heels to the curb by the end of the third day. After a day of meetings and showroom visits, I decided to give my feet a break and threw on a pair of gold snake-print slip-on sneakers. I mean, if you’re gonna go casual for fashion week, it better be cool.
I wore this look to the French Connection holiday launch party in SoHo. Normally, I wouldn’t reach for pearls and tweed for a night on the town, but a little red lip and some slip-on sneakers took this outfit from uptown to downtown just like that. And as for the rest of my NYFW in heels? I had a sneaking suspicion that didn’t last very long (see what I did there?).

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.
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!

Although my style has changed over the years, there’s one thing that’s in it for the long haul: my love for leopard. I don’t care what form it comes in — top, shoes, bag, underwear (sorry, don’t have a link for that one!) — if it’s spotted, I need it. If it’s a leopard skirt — game over. This flared skirt is the latest addition to my animal printed arsenal. I love it with all-black accessories (top, bag, sunglasses), but I can’t wait to play around with other pairings. Leopard is a neutral after all!
