Last week, I had the pleasure of meeting some of the fabulous team behind French Connection at the company’s gorgeous U.S. flagship store in SoHo. So much fun! I’ve been wearing the U.K.-based brand for years–who doesn’t love their dresses?!–but my visit made me fall in love with it all over again. I’m head over heels for how French Connection plays with bold patterns, embraces sequins and sparkles, and artfully mixes edgy looks with classic styles. Needless to say, I nearly tried on half the store while I was there!

(Mostly because my awesome coworker uses the phrase “it’s crazy town” all the time.) ;) / Lipstick: Clinique
