From left to right: 1) Ballerina in the house. 2) Morning coffee. 3) Nothing warms up a rainy day like philosophical romance. 4) Thinking of my favorite city in this difficult time. 5) Some casual Drake. 6) Stockings season.

Founding Fathers

One of my favorite parts of fall is layering. Sweaters, flannels, button downs, it all goes together. I layered this sheer, lace, white button down with a tie under a burgundy sweater hoping to achieve a prep-school look.

I paired them with a simple black dress to keep the shoes as a focal point. Major props to my photo intern, Jenni Heller, for snapping…Read More
