There I was innocently sipping an oat cappuccino at Michaeli (and, okay, scarfing a chocolate rugelach) in Dimes Square when a beautiful woman strolled by wearing a striking oversized sweater and plum-colored leather skirt. All of a sudden, I transformed into a stalker. I ran after her to find out what she was wearing. It was this faux leather skirt (for $285!) and this cashmere sweater. She went on to tell me how she's stocking up on for winter (and now so am I including the above) because they look dressed but not. In other words, the pinnacle of cool! More to come on my NYC trip and discoveries later this week on my Substack. Subscribe !
