Back to school essentials (and not so essentials)

back-to-school
 

I’m in the midst of an insane amount of work, still I couldn’t help but notice that autumn has arrived (hello rain). Fashion’s night out is coming up here in NYC. Plus, people are getting ready for school and non-summer work hours, so I put together a few essentials for all of us to kick off the season in style, organization and fun:

  1. Warby Parker Tenley glasses
  2. Pretty nylon napsack by Marc Jacobs from Shopbop
  3. Roadmap boot from Madewell (obsessing over these. They’re so very Rachel Comey-esq and you know she’s my favorite, very favorite)
  4. Vintage typewriter pocket planner (illustrated by me) from Galison or Anthropologie 
  5. and 6.  Megan Whitmarsh soft sculpture school supplies from Gray Area (ok these might not be essentials but aren’t they fun?)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Warby Parker Glasses: Violet Gaynor & Fashionologie

Warby Parker Glasses_via Fashionologie
Fashion week is about to kick off in New York. One of my oldest and best friends/ the most stylish person (Violet Gaynor) I know will be in the center of it all under the big tents. I’ll rely on her to give me some insider tips on what’s what in the fashion world.

Fashionologie just asked Violet to share a fashion week survivial secret. Her latest obsession are Warby Parker glasses which is super coincidental because we just ordered my ever bespectacled husband Dave two pairs (shipping is free and they encourage you to order extra pairs to try on).

Secretly I’ve always wanted glasses. I’m lucky not to need them but I kind of just want to wear them. Would you wear glasses just for fun or do you think it would be silly without a prescription? I love these two styles: Thatcher & Finn.
