Freshen Up Your Neutrals.
What is it about our neutrals that us New Yorkers love so much?
Neutrals are your best friend. I say that lovingly. They are the key components to any outfit. They are usually the color to complete the look per say.
An easy way to figure out how to incorporate them with your wardrobe is to try separating your neutrals from clothing with bolder color and put them into one place — trust me, it’ll go a long way when it’s time to style an outfit.
Colors You Want to Keep:
Caramel
Brown
White
Black
Cream
Pick a base neutral. I usually pick brown or black and then build from there. Think of the color wheel and what colors compliment well. Stick with those palettes. Pink works amazing with cream or brown while as cliché as it sounds – black works with everything!
there's something about august in new york city that feels different.
the city is still buzzing, but the pace starts to slow just enough to notice. the sunsets come a little earlier, the humidity finally gives you a break (sometimes), and suddenly everyone is talking about fall—even though we're still wearing sandals.
i've always loved this in-between season because getting dressed becomes more creative. it's less about chasing every summer trend and more about mixing the pieces you've been loving all season with a few hints of what's coming next.
here's what's inspiring my wardrobe this august.
