day 3

Trouvé Turtleneck [similar here] | Babaton Elliot Pants | Cheap Monday Layer Heel Bootie
I came home from my September NYC trip with a long list of fall/winter must haves inspired by the ultra-chic Soho shop girls: low-cut black ankle boots, a-line midi skirts, button down blouses and skinny cropped trousers. This Aritzia pair is everything I had been searching for: slim but not skintight, just the right amount of stretch. Added bonus: they feel so much more grown up than jeans (I had "big girl pants" here but that's creepy, yes? Yes.).

Day 3 called for the debut of my favorite (read: only) turtleneck. It's perfectly sheer, has interesting princess-like seaming and sleeves that reach my fingers AKA just the way I like them. Yes, the list of criteria for the perfect turtleneck is that long. No, you don't want to get me started on denim.

P.S. There was a ton of buzz around NYC crew Wet's track "You're the Best" last year but the rest of their EP has me crushing even harder.
