Heading to New York This Weekend! Here's What I'm Packing...
{Image}I'm heading to New York this weekend for the wedding of one of my dear friends, Malaika. I'm super excited, not only for her wedding, but also to see all of my friends and to experience the city that I love during fall. Fall in New York is truly magical and I literally cannot wait until I touch down.
Since I'll only be in town for a couple of days, I'm trying to pack light and am going with a simple color palette of gray, black, blush and tan. These neutrals can be mixed and matched and are great for this time of year.Tops:
- J. Crew gray cashmere sweater
- Gap blush henley sweater
- J. Crew tan cashmere t-shirt*
- Mackage black leather jacket
Bottoms:
Dresses:
- Vince gray sheath dress
- Dress for the wedding [TBD]
Shoes:
- Dolce Vita black ankle boots*
- J.Crew black suede pumps
- Shoes for the wedding [TBD]
I'll probably throw in a black top for going out and a couple of other tops because I like to over-pack, but I'm really going to try to stick to this color-palette idea. I'll also need to figure out accessories, but will probably bring a statement necklace (like this from J. Crew).Usually I pack totally distinct outfits that cannot be changed around and tons of random items, so hopefully this strategy will mean less clothes and shoes jammed into my suitcase and more room for makeup and new purchases :-). Fingers crossed.*Packing a similar item.
