Today was a looong one, all for the sake of fashion and beauty! I finished off the day at Betsey Johnson’s spring 2013 fashion show/70th Bday Bash/Retrospective (invite pictured above), and since it was a 12 hour day for me out and about, I decided to be stylishly comfortable!
[taken while waiting to go backstage at Narciso Rodriguez]
I literally walked 40 blocks from Lincoln Center to the Narciso Rodriguez show, made possible by my Sorel Derby shoes; there was NO WAY I would have been able to do it in any other footwear! It was such a lovely, sunny day that I had to take advantage of the sunshine. And to blow off some steam; I left my Sunglass Hut Prada Cat Eye Shades in the Osklen fashion show. So bummed!! But maybe it happened for a reason; within 24 hours I got a new pair of shades at the Betsey Johnson show, won the new Windows Phone from Style Coalition Lounge, AND won a My First Love case from Caboodles! Score!

Retro-casual silhouettes and fabrications, like flared, faded denim, open gauge crochet tops, and criss-cross kork wedges, meet contemporary pieces with statement jewelry, a silken tank, and flashes of bright hues on fingers and toes. I love wearing tried and true items from decades past, but wearing them in a way that my mom never did! On this particular summer evening, it was essential to be layered for indoor and outdoor options since once the sun goes down, goosebumps on bare skin are fair game. Some summer nights get downright brisk, so a long sleeve top of some sort and jeans can ward off the chilly breeze, while keeping the sandals from earlier in the day still in play. How do you dress for summer nights?
