What To Wear: To NYFW2014

Despite these record breaking snow storms, New York fashion week street style has not left us feeling disappointed or deprived. I still saw some well curated outfits walking the streets around Lincoln Center and throughout the city even in the below freezing temperatures.  But, to say that figuring out what I was going to wear last Sunday was easy, would be false. I don't do well in the cold, and because I had two shows to attend, one right after the other, one downtown the other uptown I had to adjust and plan accordingly. 

Outfit Breakdown:

Shoes: I was going to be talking to a lot of people and on my feet just about all day, so I needed to be comfortable. I wore a Steve Madden ankle strap slightly open toed suede wedge. They were super easy to move around in, comfortable and stylish. I would opt for a bootie or an ankle strap shoe. I saw a lot of stylish girls roaming the streets who opted for the comfier type of shoe. 

Leather Leggings: Nevermind completely on trend, they keep you so warm! These are pleather and were an epic steal from Forever 21. 

Dress: Cynthia Rowley, who you know I have a love affair with. I wanted to not be in all black, knowing that all the stylists would be. I was reporting and interviewing so I needed a splash of color, but not too much where it would put off the people I was working with. Green is one of those tones that most people feel positive towards. Another positive about this comfy and chic dress? It has pockets! 

Blazer: Instantly pulls the looks together and makes it polished and professional. This white fringe jacket is from White House Black Market. 

Fur: I wanted to add some fur, but not be too overpowering with it. This is a faux fur scarf that I wrapped around my neck to keep extra toasty!

Nails: OPI YoGA-to-get this blue. I just absolutely love this shade. It goes with everything, but it isn't boring. It always look well planned, but I swear it is my easiest styling go-to.

Jewelry: Of course I wore some Dusk & Rubies Earrings and my Michael Kors rose gold watch!

Hope you liked this look. It was stylish meets casual meets excited to be here all in one!

Stay Lovely,
