Having just returned from NYC I have some fresh perspective on inclement weather. I honestly forgot what it is like to battle the elements.
On my “shopping” day (few hours set aside so mommy can shop, kid-free)… it was cold and raining.
I was holding my umbrella, trying not to impale other people on the street and struggling to keep my bag on my shoulder. (Yup, that’s why city girls carry cross-body bags).
I quickly realized that when the weather is like this… it’s all about survival.
And to survive… IN STYLE… you need a go-to uniform!
My Glam-iform (below) needs slight modification for city living, but you can use the same general idea: great, skinny black pants and a sweater.
This is what most of the NYC ladies are wearing.
MODIFICATIONS:
1) You definitely need to swap the pumps for flats or flat boots
2) You can also easily swap the faux fur pullover, for a sweater.
Add a red or berry lip, some stunning chandeliers… And…poof… you are glam, but also ready for whatever comes your way!
Thank you SO much for reading and subscribing to my blog! Erin xo
