Before I headed to NYFW, I was chatting with Krystal about an amazing suit purchase I made at H&M. To my suprise, Krystal had purchased the same exact suit! I mean, it was a STEAL at under 50 bucks for both pieces. We decided to wear it the same day and remix it in our own ways. Unfortunately, everyone else took photos of us together but I didn’t get a chance to snap a picture of us on my camera. Major sad face. So if anyone sees one of these lurking on the interwebz, do share 😉 Krystal and I decided to still share our love of plaid and post on the same day. I wanted to do a little subtle pattern mixing with my polka dots and keep the whole look simple but classic. I threw on a few accessories and my new wedges and I was headed off to the J.Crew presentation. I got so many compliment on my suit with people thinking it was actually uber expensive. When I got to tell them it was h&m, I was smiling on the inside and out. Just another testiment to the fact that its not what you wear, but how you wear it that is important!

Any who, hop on over to Krystal’s blog at This Time Tomorrow and see how we both rocked our love of plaid, and bargains.

Below are some extras from the rest of the day.

I spent the day on the roof deck at the Hudson hotel with Helena and Taylor.
Below Helena was leaning back and showing off her arm candy.

Was such a fun day lounging and catching a beautiful breeze.
