it was a delicious autumnal day in New York yesterday – were you here? Or was it also glorious where You were?
the view over the park in the (early-ish – ok, not so early to be honest) morning was crisp, green and dewy.
it’s an odd weather time – one needs a little cashmere (just a very light one) for the evening – perhaps just over the shoulder – especially if one has been swimming (hurrah!) and is heading up to the Upper East Side to meet up with friends.
isn’t the upper East side different?
even the typography on the buildings is from a different era and the hair – don’t get us started – there’s shades of blonde up there that haven’t been seen anywhere outside of 1930s Hollywood – the creamy waves-set-into-a-fall – amazing and inspiring –
you know – we do believe we feel a Set At Kenneth’s coming on:
so the cashmere was also useful when enjoying the Tremendously beautiful sunsets over the Park – at 90th (we Rarely go up this far – quelle adventurous)
talking of textiles and draping and fun stuff – we almost felt ready to shimmy up the look (post Corporate America) when, during a Very Lovely meeting we looked down at the shoes and saw darling 1920s sort of t-bar (the line is called Joy Chen, apparently, but the designer’s name in RL is – Glory – almost the same – isn’t that splendid? and even more splendiferous that she’s a designer from the Other Coast)
and the sequins – there were lots of tiny sequins in palest cream, lemon and chiffon around yesterday from (another West Coast Designer) Maria Bianca Nero.
so that’s decided:
1. a set by Kenneth
2. some tip-tap-shoes
3. tiny sequins
feeling all Rather Modern like Julie Andrews doing-the-tap-tap-i-oca
shall we?
so – for autumn – hair, shoes, sequins and a Lot of Sunsets.
Fall sounds lovely. Or Autumn for our English friends and – Rather Confusingly – Not in the Southern Hemisphere where they’re starting to choose athletic swimwear and stock up on Factor Whatever.
gosh.
