This week, I dabbled in a little bit of NYFW and attended the Leanne Marshall Spring/Summer 2014 show.  It was the perfect opportunity to give another spring piece a last hurrah by mixing a little of girly with a little bit of grunge.

I’m obsessed with this pink tulle skirt and channeled Carrie Bradshaw the first time I wore it.  With fall nipping at our heels, I paired the piece with one of the softest t-shirts I own. Darker accessories take this look from princess to punk.

last hurrah.

I can’t believe I’m admitting this, but I’m starting to switch my wardrobe from summer to fall.  The first things to go into hibernation: bright pastels and overtly spring-ish floral prints.

While I was saying farewell to a few of my seasonal faves, I found this coral dress that I hadn’t worn since last June.  I couldn’t bear the thought of waiting another year to wear it again, so I mixed it in with a few of my fall staples for one last floral hurrah.

Wanna give your summer frock a little bit more longevity?  There’s nothing a military jacket, tortoise/leopard jewelry, and one amazing cognac tote bag can’t fix!

Hellooo Friday!  You rolled around quicker than expected and brought with you a little friend: fall weather.  And here I am, still struggling to acclimate with my sheer blouse and hot pink skirt.  I was ready to stay in this transitional weather limbo for a little bit longer, but summer is starting to feel like a distant memory already.  I’m looking forward to piling on the layers and toning down the brightness — just give me a few more weeks!
