Good morning, Thursday. It's a bit gloomy in New York today but I need to get some work done so it's a nice backdrop for being productive, or getting back in bed. Either way.
As you all know, I've made my career in advertising, and each year at this time, the big machers in my industry head to Cannes to party, drink endless summer water (aka rose), and gorge on crustacean towers and endless affirmations when awards are given for the best in advertising for the year. I've never been and suspect I may not ever go, but when you look at people's social media from the week it's hard to not feel a tinge of jealousy for all of that sun, sea, and sin. (Epic sinning during this week ps- the stuff of ad legends).
And then a pal of mine took off on a lark to Italy for the Summer because things were feeling stale in New York. Needless to say, he keeps torturing me by sending me videos from Positano and I want to go to there right now- what a lucky duck. So to suit my current mood for being somewhere Riviera-like, here is this major look from one of my favorite ladies of all time, Audrey Hepburn. Do you not love this easy, breezy look snapped while on holiday in Capri? I can't. I mean I can, but I CAN NOT. So beautiful. Classic. Perfect. Best I can do is rock my new Marc Jacobs Dr. Scholl-like objects bought on sale and dab on my neroli perfume and sip rose in my yard. That doesn't sound so bad actually, right?
Cause that's what's up this throwback Thursday on the Brooklyn Riviera. Yours, in salty air and chicness. XO
