    Top: H&M (similar), Pants: Aritzia, Belt: Banana Republic (old), Shoes: Giambattista Valli via UAL (found for $160!), Bag: c/o Rebecca Minkoff, Ring: Pree Brulee

    Happy Tuesday!  I sat next to a spiritual teacher last night at a Kenneth Cole event and he told me that the most valuable realization he came to in his practice as a monk was that in the pursuit of success it’s so easy to lose sight of yourself and who you really are.  In New York that is very easy to fall into so I decided to revisit one of my favorite spots and incorporate some of its stunning architecture, which is something I’ve always tried to do on the blog from the beginning.   The location also complemented the colors of the outfit so it worked out well.  I’m big into “the color of the season”… my toes are also painted a wine color and I’m loving it for fall!

      I am a huge fan of architecture too, so I love these photos. The color combo within your outfit, combined with the complimentary surroundings is so beautiful! Is it weird to frame a picture of yourself in your own house? If not, you should do it with one of these :)

      Simply stunning. I’m going to borrow all of the look and incorporate it into my Thursday. Thank you!

    13. I enjoyed your story about the monk .. I absolutely
      agree when success rises people tend to lose one’s
      self .. It’s nice to go back to the origin and reflect
      on everything. Beautiful outfit!!!
