Saying Goodbye To Summer With Free People

If you follow me on instagram, you already know that Nicole & I had the pleasure of

attending an intimate NYFW dinner with one of my biggest brand crushes- Free People!

I know. Pinch me. Free People were kind enough to send Nicole and I

surprise dresses to wear for our magical night in Brooklyn.

I'm excited to show you guys how I styled my dress in true Free People form!

Now for a little recap of our night.. If you keep up with Free People's blog or

brand essence, you know that everything they do includes a certain touch that makes

it uniquely theirs. Their attention to detail is impeccable. So I knew before the night had

started, that this would be a beautifully decorated event. And I was right (duh)!

Our dinner took place at Brooklyn Grange, a rooftop farm to table garden with

a breathtaking view of NYC. Our yummy raw, vegan dinner was prepared by

Nourish Kitchen Table and was absolutely delicious. We even got a private

performance from the band Quit Life! Nicole and I had a blast the entire night,

and got to say goodbye to summer in the best way possible... 

What I'm Wearing:

Softly softly apron dress c/o Free People

Miss Selfridge fedora

Dolce Vita boots

Miu Miu sunglasses

Vintage belt, cardigan, bag & jewelry

Keep Your Eyes To The Sky

“The surface of the Earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean.

On this shore, we've learned most of what we know.

Recently, we've waded a little way out, maybe ankle-deep, and the water seems inviting.

Some part of our being knows this is where we came from.

We long to return, and we can, because the cosmos is also within us.

We're made of star stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.” 

- Carl Sagan

Many of you that know me personally, know that I am a frequent stargazer

& galaxy contemplator. Once the sun goes down, my head goes up…

So when my NYLON Shop family sent me over this cosmic printed

baby-doll dress by Motel Rocks, I knew I needed to throw it on with a

matching bindi & twirl around the beach till sunset! 

I love how effortless, & care free baby-doll dress are. They just scream summer!

Unfortunately here on the east coast, that time is quickly coming to an end.

But hey, fall ain't so bad. I can't wait to pair this dress with some tights,

chunky boots, slouchy beanie & a leather jacket or cozy knit for fall!
