Oh, how this day felt good. It's always fun when the Attack on Titan jacket is the one that works best for the outfit. Got it at USJ in 2020 during Cool Japan and never looked back. It's rare when it gets worn but when it does it's good. I think its the color of the pants. A nice military green. Always works well with other earth tones.

The DVF x Target Style top came in a few different colors but you know me. It's always black. It's pretty form-fitting as well so I'm a bit cinched which I love. This is absolutely am outfit I could wear just about anywhere.

What do you think?

there's something about september in new york city that makes me want to get dressed again.

august is all about surviving the heat and squeezing every last bit of summer out of the city. september feels different. suddenly the mornings are a little cooler, the sidewalks feel a little busier, and everyone seems to be returning to their routines.

and honestly? i love it.

Outfits I Wear on Repeat in Harlem.
Outfits I Wear on Repeat in Harlem.

There are some outfits in my closet that I wear once, love, and then somehow forget about. And then there are the outfits I wear all. the. time.

You know the ones. The outfits that make getting dressed easy because you already know they work.

Wardrobe Staples for NYC Women in Their 30s.

There’s something about getting dressed in New York City that makes you rethink your entire wardrobe.

You can leave your apartment in the morning for a coffee run and somehow end up walking three miles, sitting in a café for two hours, running errands, meeting a friend for dinner, and making an impromptu stop somewhere you’ve never been before. Your clothes have to keep up with you.

And honestly? I think getting older has changed the way I think about getting dressed, too.

In my 20s, I was much more willing to buy something simply because I thought it was cute. These days, I want my clothes to be cute and comfortable. I want pieces that can be worn five different ways, shoes I can actually walk in, and a wardrobe that makes getting dressed feel easier instead of more complicated.
