in new york, it’s the equivalent of the magical hour in terms of weather.  warm, sunny and just chilly enough to wear a bit of layers. so it’s time for little blazers and transition-wear like shortsleeve sweaters or quilted mini-skirts which literally has a window of about 3 weeks before it gets too hot.

i feel very 70s in this one…which i’m attributing to marc jacobs, but more in a pants way than joelle’s interpretation via swooshy skirt and flowy blouse.  it’s also the perfect time of year to find the perfect little blazer/shorts set, like the one below from the marc jacobs fall 2011 collection.

also, my current (non-fashion related) project right now is reviving what i consider to be my “crochet masterpiece”.  it’s a crochet hexagon blanket, made of about 16 colors, where there are 4 colors for each hexagon x a million hexagons, made out of fingering weight yarn in a tiny needle. it’s going to be years before i finish!
