Your most fabulous counterpart comes into the city seeking that electric feeling that only the side streets of Spring and Mercer can provide... so that led to a little bit of shopping (hello Louis), wandering (in fabulous suede footwear naturally), and sipping on carrot juice cocktails (Sanctuary T and the Jimmy). Inspired by my latest run-in with Alexa Chung I remembered I had this 20s inspired red dress that she had in her Madewell collection a few years ago. Tis the season for knee high boots and the leather jacket and spiked clutch toughen it up. The weather is that perfect "I need a cool jacket, but I can avoid pulling out my coat for a few more weeks" feeling. It's a clear reminder of why I love east coast falls so much, and what helps me embrace the months when my nose is as red as this dress.
