Floppy Fall

October 26, 2014 / Elizabeth Savetsky

A chic topper is an excessive essential for any season. For this fall, the 70's are back in a major way, which means a floppy, boho-moment is a MUST. Pair your felt floppy with jeans, over-the-knee boots, and a fringed poncho for a casual-glam look, or dress it up like I did here in a vintage maxi. Don't forget to add oversized sunglasses and/or shoulder-dusting earrings to amp up the retro drama!

Jacketless

October 20, 2014 / Elizabeth Savetsky

I consider coats, jackets, and vests to be outfit enhancers aka excessories. So, while I am thrilled that " jacket weather" has officially arrived, I truly savored the last few days of jacketless simplicity. I didn't even plan to take photos on this particular 70-degree day, but a post-Sant Ambroeus caffeine-high spawned this impromptu shoot on Madison and 77th with my coffee date and dear friend, Adi. I am going to miss throwing on a dress and jewels and heading out the door. Bidding "adieu" to jacketless weather until springtime...

Favorite Time of Year

October 07, 2014 / Elizabeth Savetsky

There's something in the air. It's a fresh, crisp, breezy sensation that brings warm and fuzzy feelings of "back-to-school" nostalgia. I literally wake up happier this time of year. I love the fall for many reasons. The temperatures are perfect for all-day strolls...no need for taxis when the weather is this beautiful! Fall is also my favorite season for dressing because I love to play with layers and cool-weather accessories like wool hats, flannel scarves, and leather gloves. My seasonal uniform tends to channel Paul Bunyan ("Lumberjack Lizzy," if you will). On any given day you will find me pushing the stroller around the Upper East Side clad in flannel shirt and fur vest, latte in hand, smile on my face. This is my happy place.

Finally Fall

October 01, 2014 / Elizabeth Savetsky

Ever since my Pologeorgis showroom visit, I've been dreaming up outfits starring my new fox vest! Now that autumn is officially here, I want to share my first fur of the season with all you. In honor of this momentous occasion, I spent a "rawther glamorous" (Eloise at the Plaza, if you will) afternoon at Bergdorf Goodman. This look reminds me of a modern take on the uptown, mink stole and Chanel tweed clad lady-who-lunches. Because this vintage-heavy look could go grandma (chic grandma, but grandma nonetheless) very quickly, I incorporated several downtown-esque accessories. The blue/green fur vest replaces a brown mink stole, the gold booties replace a classic black pump, and the Ray-Ban Clubmasters replace an oversized pair of Jackie O's, giving this ensemble just the right amount of unexpected excessive edge. I guess I can call this outfit "Excessive Edgy Grandma goes to Bergdorf."

Check, please!

September 23, 2014 / Elizabeth Savetsky

In honor of today's official start of autumn, let's discuss outerwear. This season, there are many trends I love from shearling vest to hooded cape, but a fall favorite every gal must "check" off her must-have list is the checked coat. There are many styles from menswear-inspired, classic plaid to vibrant, abstract, oversized squares. While there are fab options at every price point, don't be afraid to splurge on this autumn essential. A statement coat is the best investment you'll ever make. Throw it on daily with jeans and boots and nobody will know you're wearing the same gray T-shirt you slept in last night...and wore yesterday...and maybe the day before. Ew, but true. Here are some of my favorite checked choices.
