about town

It's been non-stop action in New York, hitting shows, going to meetings and, last night, co-hosting a party with my great friend Mary Alice Haney and Lucky's editor in chief Brandon Holley, along with actress Rose Byrne, Lulu Frost, designer Lisa Salzer, Natalie Joos and Alexis Bryan Morgan on a yacht. It was as fab as it sounds! Below are some quick highlights from the last few days. I'll share more later in the week about what I wore. 

I did some did some mighty fine people watching outside Lincoln Center -- it looks calm here, but what a scene!

DVF show essentials: my ticket + a suitably glam clutch.

Models get pushed around on carts at Erickson Beamon.

Wearing a vintage blouse, leather jeans, a baroque River Island cardigan and a Clare Vivier clutch to Chris Benz's presentation. 

NYFW essentials: Clare Vivier leopard clutch (available here), studded Zara clutch, striped Clare Vivier clutch (available here), and Serpui Marie mother of pearl minaudiere (it's sold out everywhere but this version is equally cool).

A fall chill crept into the air on Monday afternoon, prompting me to bust out my new military-inspired wool and tweed parka from Asos. I got a jillion compliments on it. (Just fyi: it runs large, so I ordered a size down.)

Sparkles, florals, and punchy hues at J. Crew. I MUST have those ankle strap heels!

In remembrance, on September 11 Manhattan's skyline was lit up by twin towers of light emanating from Ground Zero.

 Getting my picture taken on the red carpet. I feel as embarrassed as I look!
