FALL FAVORITES
Friday, August 28th, 2009

WHO: Lauren, PR
WHAT: Printed Leggings
WHY: Each print evokes a different mood—Gaya Flowers to layered under a black mini and heels for evening, Nomadic Leopard Grey to miss-match with quirky sneakers for shopping and brunch downtown, and Pesto Snake to pair with an oversized chunky knit for a cozy night in with a friend.

WHO: Fariba, Production
WHAT: Stitches dress
WHY: It has an elegant, couture look and feel.. and of course it is black so it goes with everything.

WHO: Gina, Administration
WHAT: Sagarty Turtleneck in Nomadic Leopard
WHY: I know it’s so basic but I love the way turtlenecks fit and there are so many different things you can do with it. I think I’d pair it with high waisted black skinnies, some major patent leather platforms and a cute cut off denim vest and accessorize with some heavy chains around my neck. It’s a great layering piece.
