A Stripped Look to Live In for Fall & Winter

|...Living in the Moment + Remembering My Past|

It's always been crazy to me how specific smells, or music, can bring you right back into a memory. When I was 15 I had my first slow dance to We Belong Together by Mariah Carey. (LOL). Obviously we did NOT belong together, but yesterday I was walking down East 2 and Bowery, the song came into my headphones, and I was transported into that moment. It was almost like a wave of nerves came over me, remembering how scared I was to take the dance floor with a boy for the first time. Growing as a kid into yourself, and making those memories, is what shapes us all, so when they come back later in life, it gives us a new opportunity to really see how far we have come emotionally.  

I don't usually say things like; everyone needs this, but I think a good stripped shirt is a real must for fall. I love this turtleneck via. J.Crew. It can be dressed down with leather jacket and jeans, or up, for a dinner out under a dress. Stripes and a pop of color, is an easy way to make an outfit look thoughtful.

Peace&Love, Claire

I'm not the type of girl that likes pants very much, so basically anything oversized and menswear inspired wins my heart. This Pixie Market Dress was the perfect transition piece from hot summer NYC days, to the coming fall months. xxx C Shop Similar Here!
