IN BETWEEN THE SHEETS

jnby1_0

I feel like I’ve been swept up in a tornado of errands and to-do lists in preparation for my trip to New York in T – 7 days (omg one fucking week)! I’m heading to New York this time around to guest speak at the Chictopia 10 Conference. I’m also stoked to finally meet one of my newly acquired internet friends, Quan aka GeneticBoi who I think is so singular in his vision and execution that it is only a matter of time before he breaks out and shoots editorials for the Vogues/Elles/Ws and Purple Mags of the world. We’re doing a shoot the weekend I arrive and I CANNOT wait to get Quan-ified. Hahah

Lily and I were invited to JNBY last week to check out their new Fall 10 collection–super sleek, minimalist, and architectural. Essentially everything in their store is built for wear in the long run. Nothing is super trendy, but everything is VERY modern. Ie I could probably shelf this dress in my closet for 10 years, pull it out and wear it with no problem of looking dated. AND! It’s incredibly comfy. I was joking to Lily that wearing this voluminous dress felt like getting lost in bed sheets!

Ok back to it I go. I also want to make a couple skirts and dresses for New York. We’ll see how that goes! This weekend is the weekend to catch up.

Wearing JNBY dress; BCBG boots, Talula belt, Alexander Wang purse; Talula hat

    So glad you ended up getting that dress, babe! And in the grey (the white on you and I was just too hilarious). It looks awesome on you!!!

    Have a great trip to NY. We’ll have much more to catch up on the next time we get together. The Keefer has our name written all over it! ;)

    XOXO,
    Lily

    That dress is PERFECT. seriously. It’s like on that fine line between “dressily-casual” It looks like you can layer it into the fall with some rad leggings too.

    I love the hapless look of the draping on that dress, it clings/drapes in all the right places and I love that despite how random and casual the draping is, it has a flattering silhouette and shows your slim figure. Also love the charcoal grey with the military green and leopard print. Your hair is looking lovely as always and I’m so excited for you to go to NYC! Is someone going to film you when you’re giving your speech/talk? You should! I’m sure your readers (myself, included) would love to see it! Have a good long weekend babe! xo

    will you be in nyc for the ifb conference too?! i am going to be attending that one :) i also can’t wait to see what you are up to in nyc, like pics and stuff. it would also be so amazing to run into you somewhere!

    and i think there couldn’t have been a better way to explain your dress. it looks exactly like you draped bed sheets in the most beautiful way! it really looks amazing on you, and like it would go with nearly anything. I especially love the dark grey color next to your silver bangle cuffs :)

    Oh my fucking goodness that dress looks amazing!! It’s like the perfect dress. Draping, long sleeves, mini length. And is it jersey? It looks like the type of creamy-comfy wear that you’d put on to sleep in. Man, I am totally lime-green jello and not afraid to admit it. (lol)
