Skater Chic

I’M WEARING: Coat (21 Men) / Turtleneck (Asos) / Scarf (H&M) / Jeans (Ralph Lauren Denim & Supply) / Sneakers (Creative Recreation) / Shades (Ross & Brown) / Dog (Balenciaga)

No, the do is not actually from Balenciaga. But that’s his name, and he’s the cutest puppy ever. Lisa and I played dog-sitter for our friends for a couple of days and had this fluffy ball of fluff with us over the weekend. Moti picked us up in a car – only awesome if you live outside of Manhattan, and if you play on staying outside of it, which we did, and we made a little trip to DUMBO as we do so often.

The outfit started out with the sneakers that I hadn’t worn in a while. Because the colors matched so wonderfully and because of my new found love for turtlenecks, I went with this one from Asos. Having to fill the space in-between, I dug deep into my repertoire of casual bottoms and pulled out this pair of jeans, which is slim, but more relaxed than I’d usually go for — the perfect fit to tie the dapper turtleneck together with the sportive sneakers. Going with the elongated silhouette I now had with the pants sitting a little below the waist and the tanktop peeking out, I went with my long Forever 21 coat, popped the collar, and casually threw on a scarf.
