So, today was the very first day I needed a winter accessory and though I probably love to accessorize more than any one normal person should, this made me a little sad. It was a beautiful fall day in NYC and though sunny, the wind was a bit out of control. Last time I was in Philly visiting the fam I snagged this gray and yellow knit hat complete with adorable ball and took it out for a test run today. Had brunch at Yatanga in Harlem (must try, very cool space!)My hat...really quite warm and cozy (Nordstrom).
The Shorts...and Boots...!
Thursday, October 14, 2010 at 3:45 AMLonger days and hot nights call for shorter hem lines- but that doesn't mean we have to deal in our boots for flip flops! The shorts are no longer assigned to weekend chores, beach cover-ups and music festivals- they have found their way to the real catwalks of Hollywood. With a little stimulation from Daisy Duke, these girls show how to breathe new life into a summer wardrobe staple.

Add a black to your outfit, and you are routinely labeled "edgy"- but to me, there is amazing about these girls that are friendly and sweet. Maybe it's because instead of opting for a heeled boot, they went with a loose decent flat boot...or maybe it's to do with the softer shapes of their tops- either way, I'm coveting this look...but I may have to go back over it on a really hot day.

For a simpler version of wearing boots with your shorts, keep the height of your boot to ankle length. The leg-lengthening class alone should have you stepping up out to experiment with this look! At 5'1, Nicole Richie looks as leggy as Gisele Bundchen in all her 5'10 of glory! I love how erratic the ankle boots look with the relaxed tops that these girls paired with their shorts. You almost expect a tattered flip flop- but instead you get a sexy treat….!
Gym |clothes| Rat|s|
Wednesday, October 13, 2010 at 10:18 AMI officially hate all of my gym clothes. Yesterday I threw on a pair of tights and a long fitted deep v neck tee and finally felt cute at the gym. I think I might seriously be allergic to crew neck teeshirts with that yucky seamed collar makes me soooo sad! The tights I wore however, I don't want to ruin, wear out or snag with my eliptical shenanigans and on the floor bendy "core" workout. I think I'm going to give these Nike Runner's Tech joints a try. They are a bit pricey for work out gear but are on sale so...I'm going to give them a whirl.
