I have to admit I was surprised to see Emmanuelle Alt wear a bright pink sweatshirt during New York Fashion Week. I'm so used to seeing her in black, grey, white and muted greens and blues. She still managed to keep the pink grounded and edgy though, with a fresh face, black leather pants, a fringe bag and classic black d'orsay pumps.
The lovely team at The Real Real recently reached out to ask what my dream date would be, who it would be with, and what piece from their covet-worthy site I would pick to wear on said date. I immediately knew what my answers were for each question and this is the exact outfit I envisioned featuring my top TRR pick. Date and look details below...
WHO/WHERE
My dream date would be with my fiancé in the city of Paris.
THE PLAN
Aimlessly stroll the beautiful streets, take photos, indulge in sweets and pastries from different patisseries, scour flea markets, people-watch in the parks, have a romantic dinner, and end the day with a concert (preferably The Kills or Feist).
THE REAL REAL PICK
I've been crushing on the Saint Laurent Sac de Jour bag for so long and know it would be the perfect companion since it's incredibly chic and practical.
Model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley always looks amazing, especially when she's traveling. Love her casual cool ensemble at LAX airport with a leather jacket and python boots.
Italian beauty Giorgia Tordini killing it in a sleek striped blazer, denim and lace-up booties during Milan Fashion Week. Loving her effortless hair. Makes me want to grow mine out.
Arielle Charnas is the epitome of fresh and chic. The beautiful blogger was photographed in her mirrored sunglasses, striped top with bell-sleeves, mini Saint Laurent bag, light wash denim and statement green pumps. Yes, yes and yes!
Nicole Richie killing it in a red Saint Laurent blazer and flared denim while out with her dog in West Hollywood. The effortless low bun and cat-eye sunglasses are the perfect touch.
Blogger Chiara Ferragni looks red hot in a white sleeveless crop top, Saint Laurent crossbody bag, red pants and casual slip-on sneakers. We can't help but love how she color coordinated her bright red lip with her pants.
Street style star Eleanor Pendleton is a master at effortless dressing in a classic blue button-down shirt, sleek black mini crossbody bag and wide-leg jeans.
Model-off-duty Cris Urena effortlessly elevates her ripped jeans by pairing them with an oversized blazer, turtleneck sweater, Saint Laurent clutch and boots. Another plus is that this look could easily take you from day to night and from lunch to evening event.
This incredibly chic gingham off-the-shoulder top is the perfect way to wear the classic print straight into fall. Pair with cropped flared jeans and complete with statement white sunglasses, drop earrings, a structured bag, and cool red heeled loafer mules.
Never thought I'd ever describe an outfit as cozy ANDsexy, but model Bella Hadid manages to do just that with a mock neck sweater, vintage-style jeans and lace-up pumps!
