Posing In Lincoln Center

Roommates are a life-saver during fashion week. On a typical day I do all my blog work alone; I take my pictures while wandering around by myself, go home and edit and put together a post (attempt to proofread it myself), etc. Fashion week is a whole other animal and having someone motivate you to get up in the morning, share a cab ride with you to Lincoln Center or Milk Studios, and then also take your outfit picture for you...completely amazing. My roommate, Erin was even kind enough to lend me her coat one day when I was short an outfit (it all balanced out when she borrowed my dress another day!).
The coat ended up being perfect for the weather and our trip to Lauren Moffatt's studio. I like this coat so much I'm tempted to buy it for myself, but after seeing her new collection which won't be out for awhile I think I need to start saving my pennies. I was blown away by so many of the pieces and each had wonderful details that were fantastic to see in person. I took pictures at the studio, so I'll be sure to share those as soon as I have some down time.

I love this look, it is my favourite of yours from fashion week so far. The coat is indeed gorgeous!

YOU were short an OUTFIT???

WHOA.

I guess you're smart and pack light, but I do not. I never could.

This is really the cutest coat, and I really think you pull it off perfectly with the mustard tights and tan shoes.

XX.

Your roommate has good taste. That coat is amazing. Too bad you can't just live with another fashion blogger. I bet it would make things a little easier.

I am a huge lover of mustard tights! I wear them quite often! I love how minimalistic this outfit post it. The coat is so darling and you look lovely as always!

Also, question: How do you do your hair like that? It's so lovely! I would like to expand my knowledge and try new hairstyles!

This is darling!

I, too, was in NY last week and was thinking how wonderful it was to have a Veronika (Tick Tock Vintage) help me with photos and to lend me a skirt when I was at a loss over the contents of my suitcase.
