Luxe Basics

Flatiron, NY

Fall is my favorite season to shop for.  Cashmere sweaters, over the knee boots, felt fedoras, and skinny jeans…yes please!  I like to buy quality basics that can be mixed and matched throughout the season.  It’s worth it to splurge on a few pieces that you know you’ll wear all the time.  I currently have my eye on this leather jacket, another pair of these boots, and a classic brown cross body bag.

    Another casual, sleek, subtle palette ensemble. You do this look really well I have to say. Love that S.W. revamped his OTK boot and designed them in suede this season. I have the leather ones from 2yrs ago but am thinking about purchasing a new pair this year. These look great on you.

    I like how you mixed these separates. Are those boots brown? Brown and black is a no-no to some people, but I love this style together! Also that leather jacket you have your eye on is fab.
