What NYC Recessionista Wears – mints and grays

Yesterday was one of those glorious days where picking out my outfit took about 60 seconds …

But at the moment, I am getting a little sick of this cold weather with regard to my wardrobe, because I feel like I am getting into a rut of button down + sweater + necklace + skinny pants + boots = out the door faster.

I want it to get warmer so I can start mixing it up a bit more!


Vintage earrings from my mom’s jewelry box (similar) / J. Crew dotted button down (similar) / Chloe & Isabel necklace / J. Crew tippi sweater / bracelets c/o Ann Taylor spring 2013 (here and here) / labradorite ring from Gilt (similar) / wishbone bracelet c/o Julep / watch c/o Caravelle by Bulova (similar) / J. Crew pixie pant in navy / Clarks motorcycle boots 

I definitely liked this color combination though — a pale minty blue-ish green, gray and navy comes together really nicely.

I’m also sporting a new ring (part of a trio of rings) from the hubs … labradorite is one of my favorite stones, because it can really change color depending on what you’re wearing and how the light hits it.
