[dress: gap / necklace: brook&lyn / bag: jcrew / shoes: matiko / glasses: c/o warby parker]
The warm weather is still rearing it head this September so my aim to to get as much last minute wear out of my summer pieces as possible. I had to wear my striped maxi dress one more time and was excited to pair it with this beautiful necklace I purchased from Brook&lyn at a sample sale. It’s such a statement piece and I love the contrast of the circles with the stripes. Just a little break from all the NYFW posts. Stay tuned for Monday and my recap of the out of this world JCREW Presentation. It was epic. Happy Weekend Friends!
shasie - Right! I feel the same way in Houston! We are still getting 100 degree days down here!! I love that necklace…very unique.

Kate - I absolutely love this setting for photos – the solid fence with the city scape above in the background! So cool! And you look adorable, as always!
manding - i can’t even put away my summer clothes yet (which is killing me in my tiny studio). even in october there are those 80 degree days ! at least this striped dress would be perfect for layering. cropped black leather jacket, anyone??? 🙂

Louise LeMans - The necklace is beautiful! It’s definitely going to be hard to but away the easy things like the summer maxis, but I for one don’t mind the humidity going away for awhile! Have a great weekend!

CindyRex - What a nifty spot to take photos!
Today is the first day of fall, and the temperature is down to a lovely 107F here.
Christina - I also loved the setting for the shoot – my favorite was the last photo with the purse hanging over the fence. Nice touch. I also love the dress, though am really not sure I could pull one off – I don’t think they make them for shorties. 🙂
Hope it’s not as humid in Philly as it has been in DC!
