Remember how I said Fashion Week is really more like Friend Week? Case in point this afternoon! Mackenzie hosted a brunch at the Gramercy Hotel for her online store Design Darling. The terrace was the perfect location, bright and warm. The perfect few hours to pretend like it was actually spring and celebrate with friends!
Jeweled Tank // Saint James Tee // Fluted Skirt // Tights (old, J. Crew) // Suede Wedges // Bag (similar)
The jeweled collar reminded me to bring out my silver charm bracelet. I always forget about it, but it’s definitely one of my favorites!
Really, I can’t tell you how great it is to be with friends from out of town. There’s only so much Twitter and Instagram and texting can do… social media doesn’t hold a candle to how amazing being in person together is! Julia and Chassity are two of my most favorite people in the world. Under one roof? THE BEST.
(I mean, Chassity really is the cutest….)
Coordination at its finest.
And even though we actually do live in the city, it’s always great to catch up with Hallie and Jess… Another pair of blogging best friends 😉

Carly! My coworker and I were discussing outfit options with the fluted skirt and I immediately thought of you. It seems like a difficult piece to wear (only when I'm trying to find a top to "match" it) and I would love to see some different ways that you would style it!
