what i'm NOT wearing today

i love this outfit, i wish i could wear it today but it's still a little too chilly to be walking around in just a blazer. hopefully next weekend? definitely not tomorrow, since it looks like snow... ::sigh::

february weekday

work has been really stressful this week (i know, it's only tuesday! haha...), and i don't have much energy left to download/crop/post the few pictures i took of my outfit this past sunday, but here's a little preview:



* sidenote: ny fashion week has come and gone. the channel i used to watch videos on (Full Frontal Fashion on UltraHD) has ceased operations, so now i rely on good ol' nyctv (already one of my favorite channels anyway... secrets of new york, anyone?) for my fashion fix. i won't say much else because certain collections - wang, wasson - have been blogged about so much already, but for me the winner was definitely Ralph Lauren. i'm tellin ya, that sh*t is gonna sell come autumn/winter, and damned if that's not one of the (many) things the US needs most right now.

oh and as for me, those Ohne Titel knee zip leggings and one of Rodarte's foil-accented minidresses? yes, please!

i apologize for the strange hand pose, i was holding my camera's remote control and couldn't pull back my hand in time!

?

forgot the exact date, but it was whenever i most recently got a haircut. it must have been on either one of those two random days we had 60 degree weather in nyc, because I don't recall wearing an overcoat.

i had been wanting a super long oatmeal-colored scarf ever since i saw one on lagarconne.com, but didn't want to pay more than a hundred bucks for one. so i bought two inexpensive 100% cashmere scarves from Filene's Basement and sewed the two together to make a really looooong scarf.

saturday, february 7th '09

it was relatively warm last saturday, but i think i got overly excited after several days of freezing temperatures. i remember walking out of my building and turning back immediately to switch out the blazer for a proper winter coat. i'm sure the YSL blazer will get a lot more playing time soon enough though, spring is in the air...
