SUNSET IN DUMBO

TOP (I am also in love with the dress version here) // SKIRT // SANDALS (I own four?! pairs now) // EARRINGS // CLUTCH

Thank you to Saks Fifth Avenue for partnering on this post

It is equal parts comforting and strange to be back in my old neighborhood! It feels like both yesterday and a lifetime ago simultaneously that I called Dumbo home. The neighborhood has changed a lot – but many things like the stunning views, beautiful cobblestone streets, and buzzy energy haven’t changed a bit. I caught sunset here the other night before dipping into a local bar for happy hour and it all made for the perfect NYC summer evening.

While I have worn a lot of really beautiful pieces from Saks Fifth Avenue, I have to say that I think this look might be one of my all-time favorites. The drape and print of the top paired back to my favorite skirt silhouette feels so chic, yet so easy. I added city sandals to make walking a breeze and it added a bit of a casual flair to an otherwise feminine and elegant look. The gold accessories created the perfect finishing touch and seemed to compliment to sunset!

Saks Fifth Avenue has some really, really good new arrivals right now. A great mix of wear now styles to get you through the end of summer as well as pre-fall pieces that will make you excited for those cooler temps ahead! Scroll to see my top ten…

STRIPED OVERSIZED BOW SHIRT

Lately I’ve been living for oversized button down shirts. It’s probably time that I add one that features a oversized front bow to my growing collection!

AMBER COGNAC JACKET

This recycled leather jacket features an ornate gold tone button closure. The perfect silhouette back to these earrings and these relaxed jeans.

FRINGE NOVELTY CLUTCH

I love the fall forward colors that make up this special clutch. The braided leather creates a plaid look, while the unfinished fringe adds a touch of whimsy. Add an oversized gold clasp and it feels even more elevated! Stay tuned to see this piece styled!

FRINGED SCARF JACKET

More fringe! This winter white wool-blend scarf jacket is ultra chic. I would pair it back to cream denim and a cream sweater for a chic monochromatic moment. A true investment piece for the season and beyond.

HAND PRINTED CASHMERE TNECK DRESS

Speaking of investment pieces, I’m not sure I’ve ever owned a 100% cashmere gown before, but I would be happy to start now. This hand printed snow leopard motif is beyond. Did I mention it is 100% cashmere?!

CHECKED BUCKET HAT

Summer isn’t over quite yet! This hand embroidered oversized checked bucket hat is adorable. Perfect with a black one piece and breezy white cover up for those end of summer pool days!

QUILTED FELINE TOTE BAG

This playful market tote bag features a feline-inspired print and bold striped piping details. Perfect for those casual weekend errands around town and big bonus it is under $100.

DRIES RAVING ROSE PERFUME

Dries Van Noten can do no wrong, and that extends all the way to perfume. I love this raving rose scent and the fact that this beautiful bottle is recyclable and refillable. Plus, it is pink and red, one of my favorite color combos of all-time!

SAKURA PRINT TAFFETA TOP

This peplum waisted taffeta top features a bow detail at the shoulder and is complete with this beautiful sakura floral print. A perfect date night top for end of summer nights.

STRIPED CABLE KNIT CARDIGAN

I’m all in on cardigans as we enter pre-fall! This chunky knit cable cardigan is in a luxe camel color and features a stripe design and color combo that feels classic collegiate, but elevated. Super chic back to gold jewelry.
