sweaty in the city


Last week in my native city I played tour guide to my sons, who unlike typical sightseers, did not want to check out the Whitney's Calder exhibit (much to my dismay, as I hear it's amazing!) or even to go to Central Park Zoo (been there, done that, they said). Instead they opted for a round (or five) of miniature golf and skateboarding down in Hudson River Park, followed by a trek to the Upper East Side for gluten-free eclairs at Paris-based Noglu (they're insane!). There was also a visit to the Lego store, a few rides on the subway (just because!) and jaunts around Chelsea, Greenwich Village, Soho, and Tribeca. The heat and humidity high called for the lightest clothing, which, for me, entailed flowy dresses, including the cute, cut-out denim jumpsuit, below, and the Topshop, below. I'm headed back to NYC in a few days for Fashion Week, and, this time around, a more sophisticated wardrobe is in order. Here's what I'd like to bring: this throw-on-and-go MAR dress, these Gucci sneakers (for running around in between shows), this outfit-making Clare V. bag, this cocktails-ready Topshop midi, this fluttery eyelet Line & Dot blouse, this paparazzi-loving Loewe sweater (in case the temperature dips) and this Lancome Juicy Shaker in Vanilla Pop, which I just discovered for the perfect day-to-night pout.
