I've been brainstorming ways to wear this gorgeous shirt dress from Friends & Associates after that intro that I did way back when. Sure, it's chic and minimal by itself, but only a crazy person wouldn't wear sleeves in this weather. I opted for my trusty oversized sweater to drop off the shoulder and show some of the beautiful pleating and contrast collar and to show its enormous versatility with cute striped socks and classic brown boots.
I dared to bare my legs in this weather, mainly to practice for NYFW coming up, where I'll probably have to step out in stockings more often than not. Opted for a monochromatic outfit with neon details on this John & Jenn cardigan that's surprisingly warm and the flimsy silk shorts that I was telling ya'll about in this post. I can't tell you how excited I am to be seeing Stephanie and Natalie, among some other favorites and meeting some new faces! Be sure to follow me on Instagram for some live updates!
Friends & Associates incorporates the best menswear-inspired, minimal and boxy cuts from traditional uniforms and brings it to life with a variety of colors and styles from flimsy silk shorts (one of my personal favorites) to pleated cheerleader skirts to a very Alexa Chung inspired dress. It's obvious that these pieces are going to do quite well remixing with the rest of my wardrobe.
