INSPIRATIONAL LINKS, ETC
Who What Wear: A leather skirt at the office? What is this madness?!
Style: The best of fashion week hair and makeup. My fingers are crossed that gold eyebrows catch on- I’ve been looking for an office-friendly makeup look to pair with my leather skirt.
Vogue: Okay, there was a freak heat-wave last week, but it’s supposed to cool down again this week so make sure you’re prepared with the best, Vogue-approved sweaters.
The puppy makes this sweater extra cozy. Puppies are must-haves for fall.
