NYFW: The Socialyte Gala Film Photo Log

Just when you thought you heard the last about NYFW, is the day where I received film prints to lure you back into the madness. I got the chance to accompany my lady friend Kelly to The Socialyte Gala. Anywhere Kelly and I go is instantly an adventure, but put us in a setting with an open bar + live music + a chance to dress up... and it's a guaranteed good time. The night started out as any good night should: Chipotle... (And ended just the same: taking ridiculous photos in an elevator. and a lobby. and on a parked bike.) Not much different from how Kelly and I usually spend our time together, but an exciting time nonetheless.

I double dog dare you to scroll down and find out what’s missing from the photo above. Hint- it’s on my feet and matches the yellow brick road.

I salute you, Zara, for being the mecca of affordable fashion. I’ve been dreaming about the perfect camouflage pants for a while, and now my imagination’s prayers have been answered. These magical pants don’t work as an invisible cloak, but I think everyone would agree that it’d be nice to have camouflage that blended in with the concrete jungle to protect us from men on the sidewalks who think it’s necessary to shout dayyyuuum. But I guess the color of my heels entirely negates going incognito.

It's All About the Details

I'm obsessed with mixing prints and textures, (enter Joey Tribbiani), even when the warm weather makes me feel like I'd rather be walking around in a swimsuit. Layering bandeaus has always been a no-brainer, but the recent pop of neon lace lingerie has me thinking about skipping the bandeau altogether. With statement beauties like this, who needs a boring bandeau?  Lingerie is no longer just for the bedroom - Taylor Momsen rejoice - these bras add such a delicate feel under your favorite cut-up Harley shirt or sheer vintage tee.
