nyc staples


I think I changed about 18 times before going to a fashion event last night in New York. I vacillated between prints,and solids, a lace-trimmed Phillip Lim midi and a knee-length Khaite skirt until I finally settled on a ruffled Maison Mayle dress that felt like a second skin, along with my new Loeffler Randall fall boots (see pic here). The moment I arrived, I knew I had made the right choice. However, spotting my friend Dorsey's founder, Meg Strachan, in effortlessly chic jeans (jeans!) and a sleek Kahlmeyer blazer, upper left, triggered a pang of outfit envy. Meg's outfit made me realize my wardrobe could use more of those infallible NYC-ready classics: sophisticated clothes that not only work everywhere but command attention at a Fashion Week soiree. I'm referring specifically to these beauts from Toteme, The Row, Prada, Pixie Market, The Great, Zara, and Marant Etoile!
