STEVEN ALAN BRAS

Black and white  //  Seersucker  //  Navy

"Always wear pretty underwear, on account of you just never know." There's something rather fun about wearing a cute bra and panties for no reason, don't you think? These pretties from Steven Alan are too good to resist. Classic black and white, summery seersucker, or tried-and-true navy? I mean, all three would look rather sweet in my top drawer...!

"DO ONE THING EVERY DAY THAT SCARES YOU."

Oh, Eleanor, you're so wise. This has definitely been a guiding principle for me lately. New York can be a very intimidating place! So anytime I'm on the fence about whether to say yes to something, I try to remind myself of this quote. Blogger event? First date? New Pilates class? Trapeze lesson? As much as those things cause me anxiety, it's so enriching to get out of my comfort zone every now and then. And the funny thing is, as terrified as I am going into a scary situation, I almost never regret it once it's behind me! 

Tell me: what's the last thing you did that totally scared you? Was it worth it?

BRUNCHING IN LILLY

On Carly:

Clarita dress c/o Lilly Pulitzer

On Mackenzie:

Morely top, Worth skinny jeans, and Photodome bangle c/o Lilly Pulitzer

Carly and I had so much fun styling these Lilly Pulitzer looks over the weekend! Here's what we wore for Sunday brunch at Maison Kayser, one of our favorite spots on the Upper East Side. I'm unsurprisingly obsessed with the ruffled navy top and I may have to "borrow" the sailboat dress from Carly's closet before summer's end. By the way, if you're looking for a great pair of white jeans, these fit great and (bonus points!) didn't have to be hemmed before the shoot (for reference, I'm 5'1"). Be sure to check out Carly's blog for what we wore to picnic in Central Park!
