Gold Satin Slipdress: Missguided | Grey “Super” tee: Sincerely Jules |Sneaks: Stan Smiths

This weekend, Tim and I took Nolan upstate to our old college- The University at Albany (or for you New Yorkers, SUNY Albany!).  We were out and about all day, from brunch, to touring campus, and meeting up with some of Tim’s old Fraternity brothers…so this is what I wore to keep comfy, but still feel “dressed”.  I layered my current fave little grey tee, the “Super” t-shirt by Sincerely Jules, under this gold satin slipdress from ASOS— again, I love the contrast of the “sexy”, “night time” material of the satin dress with the casual tomboyish slouchy grey tee.  I paired this look with simple white Stan Smiths and my black Saint Laurent Betty– and did a crown or milkmaid braid in my hair to keep it out of the way (but really just didn’t feel like washing it lol).  This is such an easy look to recreate– this will def be on major repeat this fall and winter! Try and pick up a few different slipdresses, maybe in satin, velvet, a print and a solid, and try experimenting with your fave old tee shirts under them!

Happy Fall!

Whoa, so having a baby and working full time as a teacher does NOT make it easy to find time to keep up with my blog– if I didn’t love fashion as much as I do, it would definitely be way too easy to let it slide…so when NYFW time rolled around this year, I knew I wanted to push myself to make it work.  Unfortunately, September Fashion Week in New York always coincides with the first week of school, and being a teacher, this is obviously a crazy time of year.  It ain’t easy adjusting from sleeping in and doing whatever you want all summer, to organizing and ready-ing a classroom and switching over your brain to “adult” mode! Anyway, I knew that I was going to be able to go to Fashion Week shows and events last weekend, and forego any weekday/weeknight activities because of school– and now that Nolan is here (remember last Fashion Week, when I was 7 months pregnant!?), I also didn’t want to miss too much time away from him (hence why I ended up bringing him with me on Sunday’s adventures!).  So here’s what I wore– (click links to shop my looks!)
