What NYC Recessionista Wears: Scarves and Stripes

November comes along and all of a sudden, we’re freezing our buns off here in New York. It’s getting to be that time of year where you can’t leave the house without a scarf.


Earrings from NansGlam on Etsy / Madewell scarf (similar) / LOFT striped top / Old Navy chambray shirt dress (similar) / Ann Taylor necklace (similar) / watch c/o Caravelle by Bulova / Forever 21 gold bracelets (similar) / Kate Spade New York tights (similar) / J. Crew boots (similar)

I snagged this scarf back in 2009 at a J. Crew sample sale … it’s actually from the early days of Madewell, and it’s always been one of my favorite scarves.

With yesterday being Election Day, I knew I wanted to wear something blue 🙂 so I went with denim chambray and navy stripes … you can’t get much more American than that.
