For this week's post, I decided to document a look that takes minimal effort to accomplish. It encompasses the Fall season and dressing for multiple events in one look. As I've said before, living in New York City can be rather tough. If you don't live somewhere "middle-ground" like Midtown, it is often hard to go back home and change clothes to look a certain way for a different social/work event without taking a huge chunk of your day out in commuting back and forth. My advice is always to dress with a purpose, meaning to take the extra few minutes to choose something appropriate for multiple occasions. This look, for example, is a bronze metallic faux leather motorcycle jacket with a sage green pullover. The hood of the pullover changes up the look of wearing a motorcycle jacket automatically, making it a little more playful and less "Go Grease Lightning." I paired it with classic dark jeans and some color-coordinated hightop sneakers. My Fall look comes together with a statement timepiece in "espresso brown." A great idea to change up this look without going back home: Wear a solid v-neck t-shirt on under the pullover! Simplification goes a long way! Due to the ever changing temperatures of the Fall season, a faux leather jacket is always a nice, lighter alternative to actual leather (which can be extremely heavy and hot).
