Good morning, Tuesday. It's humid in New York and I'm feeling sluggish and in need of a high thread count.
But besides my sleepy countenance, there's apparently some fashion stuff happening in town. I've looked at many of the shows and will continue to do so, but not sure I'm going to find anything I like more than the looks at the Row. MK and Ashley have done it again; with a hyper luxe and ridiculously elegant collection I would live in if I was living in a much more spendy way. Their aesthetic is the perfect combination of classic/NY street smart/sensual/luxe- and they have become some of my absolute favorite designers. I love the quiet layering, the global appeal yet decidedly American/NY point of view, and that continuation of minimalism we're seeing everywhere, though admittedly, they've always been there. Kudos to Mary Kate and Ashley- they've come a long way since those Full House days, and their cred as designers is at an all time high. These are clothes to be worn over and over again- for travel, for gallery jaunts in the city, for dinner at some chic spot in just about anyplace you can think of. And though mere mortals can't afford any of these pieces, it's nice to dream a little- think of these clothes as the ultimate investment pieces- they're not overly trendy so could be worn forever and ever. Oh, and those belts and bags? Fantastic.
In my mind, best collection of the week so far. Cause that's what's up this expensively simple kind of Tuesday in the 212. XO
