FALL WEDDING STYLE: MARIGOLD LACE DRESS

While I attended the majority of this year’s weddings between June and August, I’ve got one more in October to round out my ‘5 weddings in 5 months’ situation (you can see what I wore to the others here and here). While it’s easy to find a pretty pastel or bright floral number for summer weddings, I wanted something that felt more seasonal for this final celebration. And I’m not sure anything could feel more like Fall than a gorgeous marigold lace midi dress and rich burgundy suede pumps. Just the thing to get me excited to cross the finish line of this year’s wedding season marathon.

NYFW LOOK 2: PLAID COAT AND DENIM JACKET

On Sunday I spent the morning dashing from one cab to another (that biting cold was not good for my wallet) before hunting down my Valentine and a nice warm meal for brunch. I’d been saving this plaid coat for the occasion but once I realized it wouldn’t be enough to combat 1 degree temps I added this denim jacket underneath. 40 degrees this week has never felt so good.

STRIPED ROMPER AND CHAMBRAY SHIRT

It’s hot in New York City. Like walk a block, sweat a gallon kind of hot. Secretly, I love it.. but it definitely makes getting dressed a challenge. This outfit was a beat the heat winner over the past weekend.

THE LITTLE RED LIGHTHOUSE

Just when you think you’ve seen it all in this city (and trust me.. I’ve seen some things), Manhattan goes and blows you away all over again. This weekend, 166 blocks north of our apartment (plus 18 subway stops and about a mile hike later) we tracked down the last standing lighthouse in the city. And it was well worth the trek.
