pristine

Finally! The weather dipped below seventy today, so I got to actually break out a few fall clothes (don't worry, though -- it will be back in the eighties by the end of the week). I came back from our vacation with a terrible cold (actually, I was sick pretty much the entire trip), so a day in some comfy basics was definitely overdue.

I've never been much of a hat-girl, but I'm pretty sure that was just because I've never owned one as beautiful as the one that Eric Javitz sent me -- it kind of makes me want to wear them all the time! Think of basically any hat you've ever seen in a fashion editorial -- and it's probably his. :-) And this bag is the perfect fall basic -- it literally goes with everything in my closet.

These jeans are an exclusive color from J. Brand, and the proceeds benefit City Year, a nonprofit that uses education-based initiatives to prevent high school students from dropping out of school -- a really cute (and comfy!) pair of jeans for a terrific cause. And the pin I'm wearing (you can see it best in the last photo) is sold by Kenneth Cole to benefit AIDS research -- you can pick them up in stores starting today!

Gifted J. Brand jeans, gifted Eric Javitz hat and bag, YSL pumps, gifted tank and watch (via Rue La La), Hermes bangle, C. Wonder necklaces (one was gifted, one I bought), Kenneth Cole pin.
