The weather in New York has been really unpredictable lately. One week the weather is frigid and the following week it’s as warm as a spring day. I am the type of person who transitions her closet based on the seasons. With that being said, my summer clothes are in storage with the exception of a few tee-shirts and lightweight pants. I decided to accept an invitation to go to the movies followed by drinks one Friday evening and the weather was nice and warm. Too warm to wear a leather jacket and jeans. I put a chic outfit together which would keep me cool enough while traveling but warm enough when the temperature drops.
I am a fan of Rainbow Apparel. There are times when they get it right. LOL. There clothes fit pretty well and they are cost effective. I found this beautiful Orange short sleeve dress which was perfect for the outing. The dress hugged my curves in the right places and the length of the skirt was flattering. The cost of the dress was under $15 and it came with a necklace (which I didn’t wear). Similar style can be found here.
A denim jacket is a closet necessity. Heavy denim jackets are normally worn in the colder months, so of course my regular “go to” was not available. Luckily, I purchased a Denim blazer which was astounding and was gently lined. It was a perfect pair with my dress. Similar style can be found here.
Blanket scarves are definitely trending this season. They come in a variety of colors and styles. I was lucky to receive a Modcloth blanket scarf in a subscription box. I have used the scarf practically every day since. What I love about these scarves are that they are versatile and can be tied differently to accent any outfit. I tied my scarf bandana style. Due to its versatility, I can throw it over my legs in the movie theatre if it gets a little chilly. Similar style can be found here
Boots naturally are absolutely essential for the colder months. I love a good pair of wide-calf Chocolate Brown boots that I got on sale at Macy’s last year. My legs are on the thick side and they fit perfectly without compression. This boot has a low heel and a zipper enclosure from the ankle which makes it easy to put on and remove. Wearing these boots make extensive walking in New York a breeze. Comparable option found here..
