Looking for a Friday date night kind of outfit? The lace-up dress is your answer. This fall they come in every iteration (laces on sides, sleeves, front, hems..) but are all infinitely wearable and definitively alluring. For someone who typically favors a slouchy sweater or a flowy midi skirt – it’s fun to throw on something with a little more sass for a Friday night.

If I’m being completely honest, I’ve been in a bit of creative blog slump for the past few weeks. While lots could be to blame (being busy at work, conflicting travel schedule between Adam and I, life in general…) – the result was that I was turning out posts that I felt less than excited about. Which has never been the point of this little space. It’s meant to be a place where you turn for inspiration to get out there and explore your own city (and beyond!) in style. Not a guide for to how to stand in front of a wall and smile… but there it was. Lucky for us all – on Friday I had the day off work (all hail Summer Fridays) and so I picked myself and headed to one of my favorite happy places in the city. The Met’s rooftop. With sweeping views of the city and a glass of rosé in hand, I felt inspired all over again and by the time Adam caught up with me that evening I was brimming with new ideas. A change of view will do that to a girl I guess. So stick around, we’ve got lots coming your way these next few weeks that I’m truly excited to share – starting with today’s post shot on one of my favorite streets in Greenwich Village.

I’ve worn this striped linen dress at least once a week since I picked it up earlier this season. It’s impossibly comfortable (and it doesn’t wrinkle!) and just heavy enough weight to make it work for these cool spring mornings when paired with a light jacket.

I already mentioned it here, but I’m an unashamed fan of Valentine’s Day. I like wearing a bit of pink now and then and I like any excuse to wear a pair of knockout heels. Even if it’s just to cook a special dinner in our tiny kitchen. And even though Adam and I don’t have big plans for next weekend, at least I’ve got the outfit ready now.
