Student Life

These were taken near NYU, amidst the electric energy of today’s youth out and about on a gorgeous evening. I didn’t have a college life; I was married and a mom before graduation! I am so grateful for my trajectory and have never once felt I lacked a real college experience. It’s interesting how my current phase of curiosity and exploration is happening in my 40’s, proof that learning all kinds of new things is an ageless pursuit. This is what keeps me young, fresh, and alive. Being a student of life has become so important to me.
Here I’m wearing a silk navy shirt dress that I’ve had for at least 14 years. It has served me very well, mostly around this time of year. It’s a great mini dress or layering piece, looking fab with matching tights as temps drop. I always pair this with boots, seen here with my brown riding ones. The chunky cardigan, specs, and long necklace work together to create a cozy, cute, easy look that goes from day to night. This time of year can be varied in temperature, so I love the option of the warm cardigan as needed, while the rest of the outfit can stop traffic on its own.
