Woo! First Monday of the school year is under my belt. It was a good day, but I’m exhausted. To beat the Monday blues, Mitch, Shawn and I headed over to Drop Off Service, one of our favorite establishments in the East Village, after work. (So great to be back in my city!)

I’m keeping my attire simple these next few days, as I’m still living out of my suitcase. I’m counting on navy blues, browns, and the occasional pop of color to get me through until I unpack next week! (But I sure am missing my crazy colors and crazier prints. ;))
As most of you know, New York City is in the midst of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week right now. Sadly, I’m skipping the festivities, as I have too much going on. Today was the first day of school, we’re in the process of moving, and I’m still sick. (But I’m going to a specialist tomorrow to figure it all out! 12 in 12, huzzah!) While I’m a bit heartbroken I missed the RewardStyle party on Sunday (so many of my favorite girls were there!), I think it’s important I take it easy. For now, I’m cozied up in bed, planning for tomorrow. Tonight, I’ll be dreaming of our new apartment. (Only eight more days! But who’s counting, right? ;))

I love the monochromatic outfit choice and the way you spiced it up with those amazing accessories! That necklace is one I’ve been eyeing for a while, but haven’t committed to ordering quite yet.
Great blog!!

Thank you so much! I have so much animal-print clothing, haha. I’m a child. ;)
I love that bag! Wish it wasn’t sold out… I’m on the hunt for a perfectly structured bag in that exact tone. Thanks for the similar/larger recos!
Hope you’ve been having a great summer, girl — see you soon, I’m sure!
Thank you, Hallie! :) I’m LOVING the darker version actually… I couldn’t recommend it enough!! Holds a ton and it really doesn’t get dirty. :)
Hope to see you soon! Loving your NYFW updates! :) xoxo!
Feel better soon, Kelly! I hope everything is OK. Are you still running a fever? Are you going to an infectious disease doc?
Do tell about all these parties you go to! I’d love to get linked up with RewardStyle, but I’m new to the blogging world, so I don’t know the ins & outs yet.

Hi Heather! :)
Thank you so much for your concern. It means so much! I actually went to an ENT for chronic sinusitis. Blah! It was encouraging… We’re going to try allergy shots before considering surgery. I like that idea. ;)
For RewardStyle, all you need to do is apply! It’s awesome! Let me know fi you have any q’s… Happy to help! xoxo!
LOVE that purse and those heels. They go with everything don’t they? =)

You can never go wrong with navy and white! You looks adorable. And I love your bag! I wouldn’t be able to stay away for the fashion week festivities. I have high hopes to be there next year (I say that every year)!
