What I Wore: What Not To Wear…in February

29 February, 2016 Nelia Leave a Comment

Here’s another outfit I wore in NYC during NYFW…in February. Yup, a breezy dress, paired with a leather jacket, and sunglasses, of course. Was I cold while these photos were being taken? Freezing. Should I have worn a parka instead? YES. Was it worth it? Probably not. But don’t worry, I wasn’t completely insane – there are several layers that you can’t see. Like the two sweaters underneath the dress – 1 cashmere and 1 wool, and two pairs of tights. And even with all those layers, I still felt like an icicle. Thank goodness for the abundance of cabs in NYC…because as soon as these photos were taken, I jumped into one and stayed indoors for the remainder of the day.

More after the jump!

What I Wore: Bad Decisions

23 February, 2016 Nelia Leave a Comment

If I’m being honest, I wasn’t really prepared for NYFW this season. The mild winter we’ve been having has completely screwed up my judgement, and so instead of a parka, I packed a bunch of leather jackets for a February trip to New York. Crazy, I know. My winning strategy was to stay in cabs as much as possible…and layer the crap out of my outfits.

This was probably one of the warmest looks I packed – a wool midi skirt worn over fleece tights, and a turtleneck sweater under a leather jacket. By the end of the week, I caved and bought a packable down jacket from Uniqlo to wear under my leather jackets. In hindsight, I probably should’ve done that at the beginning of the week, because as I type this, I am nursing a major cold. But whatever…Bill Cunningham took my picture that day, so being a little cold was totally worth it.

I Wore: Jacket – DKNY; Sweater, Boots – Zara; Skirt – Oak and Fort; Bag – ela handbags; Sunglasses – Fendi

Speaking of gorgeous spring shoes…check out this amazing spread shot by the Canadian street style photog Tommy Ton for Saks Fifth Avenue! Featuring some drool-worthy styles by Salvatore Ferragamo, Fendi, Valentino, Altuzarra, Jil Sander, Derek Lam, and more, these photos are making me drool all over my laptop!

Right now, I am straight up OBSESSED with these lace-up Ferragamos. They are insanely hot, and I need them in my life ASAP. The heel looks super high, but the design also looks sturdy and secure, so I probably wouldn’t break my ankle. Just in case, I’d like these flat snakeskin Valentinos as well…you know, to mix it up!

What do you think about this photo spread? Are you getting excited for spring? Do tell!
