So, I’ve decided to start doing outfit of the day posts since a) I’m test-driving looks for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week and b) sometimes it’s fun to watch how people put things together. This was from yesterday. Here are the salient details:
Agenda for the day:

- Combat-worthy sale shoe shopping at Loehmann’s (score: amazing OTK flat black Via Spiga riding boots half price)
- More combat-worthy shoe shopping at Payless for (score: Isabel Toledo heels and black patent flats)
- Drinks with my girlfriends at BLT Fish
- Last minute shopping at H&M (score: boyfriend blazer)
The details of the look:
- Blazer: United Colors of Benetton Tropical Wool Blazer (no longer available)
- Deep V-Neck T-Shirt: Mossimo Black for Target ($14.99)
- Scarf: NYC street vendor find ($5)

- Jeans: Tory Burch Denim Leggings ($185)

I’m interested to hear your thoughts on this. Is this something you would wear out running errands? Let me know in the comments section.


You have me lusting after those leggings. They’re phenomenal.
I highly recommend them. They’re a slice of genius and SO comfy!
