In light of the horrific events in Boston on Monday, it didn’t seem appropriate to me to publish one of my usual posts yesterday. Â Especially since I felt too unsettled and emotional to write about the events. Â In addition to making a donation to the Red Cross, I’ve been sending positive thoughts to Boston (those who participated in the marathon, residents of the city, and everyone else affected). Â If you’d like to give back in any way, I recommend visiting this link, which has rounded up a lot of options for giving back in some way.
– Manifesto t-shirt, 7FAM jeans, old leather jacket,
Nine West shoes, Burberry scarf, Send The Trend earrings –
Looking at these pictures reassures me that I made the right decision to chop off my hair. Â Between the messy bun, the attempted polished pony, and the inevitably loose-yet-frizzy locks, it was time for a hairstyle that’s easy to manage.
Two-minute-vain rant over. Â As much as I’m hating on my hair, I’ve been living in variations of this outfit for the past month. Â It’s still too cold to go jacketless, but the very presence of two layers (versus the normal wintertime 4) is a welcome change. Â Far things beat a cozy t-shirt, a new denim silhouette, and a tough jacket to top it off.
That said, when the day comes when I can go jacketless until fall, I’ll be dancing in the streets. Â Likely those of SoHo, at around 9 am, when they’re empty and I’m heading into the office. Â I’ll be the one doing some sort of strange Bollywood-hip hop-Tracy Anderson Method combination.
What are you most excited to wear this spring? Â I’m excited for it ALL – skirts, dresses, open-toed shoes (though my feet would disagree), and most importantly NO OUTERWEAR!
