{ one look } four lenses

my last day in milan, as seen through four different photographers' lenses:






image 1: via mr. newton, image 2: via catching moments, image 3: via the photodiarist, images 4 & 5: via cafe mode, image 6: via the photodiarist in color

{ wearing: lanvin for h+m sunnies, rachel rachel roy earrings, helmut lang jacket, madewell blouse, kelly framel necklace, bordelle bra, dedegumo watch + gifted khirma eliazov and bulgari bracelets, camille zarsky clutch (recently seen HERE), missoni pants, stuart weitzman shoes }

{ the very next day }





{ forever21 sunnies (last seen HERE), helmut lang jacket, marni knit top, forever21 pleather skirt (i picked it up in their times square store last week), dedegumo watch, coach classic duffle, j.crew sandals }

ran around in this comfy costumery last friday; i haven't had a day off since fashion week ended on thursday, but have at least been giving my feet a break with flat sandals. i have a huge project currently on my plate ~ as soon as it's cleared i'll get to work on a big fashion week photo diary for you all. fingers crossed that happens before i head to milan!!

{ little tramp }







{ vintage ray-ban sunnies, kelly framel necklace, helmut lang blazer, forever21 tank, alice+olivia pants, primary clutch, prada shoes }

this is one of my favorite outfits lately; the way that it sits at the intersection of layered-but-subtle, tailored-but-easy, and dressed-up-but-dressed-down is so my speed. also, i think these shoes really need to come out more often.

{ after } the storm









{ vintage umbrella, kelly framel necklace, helmut lang blazer (last seen HERE), rachel rachel roy blouse, alexander wang shorts (last seen HERE), kelly framel wrap bracelets (coming soon), dedegumo watch, gifted tiffany tiger's eye clutch, chloe sevigny for opening ceremony boots }



in the end, hurricane irene passed rather uneventfully through new york ~ for which i am quite grateful (so many other cities were less lucky). also feeling pretty giddy about: this so-gorgeous silk clutch, scoring 3 great pairs of shoes at the barneys sale (these boots included!), and the fact that today is my birthday!! and my blog's almost-anniversary ~ you see, three years ago today, at my 25th birthday celebration, my friends dubbed me 'the glamourai' (they all got party names too), and the basis for this whole blog project accidentally began. who'd have thought we'd all be here today?! what a ride.

{ kelly-o }







{ elizabeth + james 'monroe' sunnies, helmut lang jacket (also seen in this recent post), kelly framel jet teardrop necklace, gifted bird by juicy couture washed linen dress, gifted coach classics bag }



semi-embarrassing but totally true: i watched every episode of 'the kennedys' miniseries on netflix recently (it's addictively soapy + it was a rainy weekend!), and this outfit was my natural reaction to the late-night jackie-o googling that ensued. i'm not claiming to be nearly as chic as she ~ just understandably inspired by. one could do a lot worse as far as fashion role models go!!

{ summertime } and the livin's easy





{ karen walker sunnies, helmut lang jacket (seen with the same shorts HERE), banana republic heritage vest (last seen HERE), kelly framel tangerine tiki necklace & hot pink skull necklace, ya tank courtesy of modcloth, alexander wang shorts, christian louboutin shoes, bag courtesy of coach }

my favorite days are when i feel at once comfortable and chic ~ so i'm really loving all my easy summer separates. something's just clicking this season! speaking of, i finally took these shorts to the cleaners, and it was embarrassingly hard to do. if i can't go a week without them in my wardrobe, how did i ever survive before?! #creatureofhabit

PS: who's planning to come out to juicy couture for tomorrow's party? i hope i get to meet a lot of you there!! i've got a cute outfit picked out and everything.

{ that dress }






{ karen walker sunnies, kelly framel jewelry (the tangerine tiki necklace is available now!), helmut lang jacket (last seen HERE), alythea bra courtesy of modcloth, chloe sevigny x opening ceremony dress, rebecca minkoff clutch (last seen HERE), alexander wang shoes (recently seen HERE and HERE) }

remember that dress i mentioned yesterday? well here it is, in one of the many, many ways i've worn it so far this summer. incidentally, this ensemble simultaneously features the same sunnies, blazer and shoes i wore HERE ~ as i get older (and more assured of my own style) i feel like i'm getting better at predicting which pieces i'll get a ton of wear out of, and are therefore worth investing in. this outfit's full of them!!

{ everything }





{ karen walker sunnies, kelly framel elephant necklace, helmut lang blazer (it's nearly identical to THIS ONE, but in linen!), maddy ...k blouse courtesy of modcloth (favorite thing ever from them?), chan luu wrap bracelet, alexander wang shorts and shoes, rebecca minkoff clutch }

do you think it would be acceptable for me to wear this outfit every day for the rest of my life? because it's already been three times this week. it's essentially the summerized version of THIS ONE, but even more comfortable. #seriousfave

{ the new leisure suit }



{ lanvin for h+m sunnies, kelly framel jet leaf earrings and crystal meridian ring, helmut lang blazer, primary | new york silk t-shirt, alexander wang shorts (now on sale!) }

this may simply be a part of getting older, but more and more i feel most comfortable in clothes that are at once perfectly pulled-together and still totally relaxed. for instance, a great tailored jacket feels casual-as-can-be (but still appropriate anywhere), when paired with slouchy, statement-making shorts (instead of the more-expected skirt or pants). it feels grown-up but not uptight; therefore, just right.
