Tonight from 5:30-8PM I'll be over at Bloomingdale's on 59th Street with DKNY. Stop by to check out a wardrobe presentation (at 6) and receive special gifts with purchase.
Also just to say hi, because I'd love to meet you :).
Now: let's get back to our regularly scheduled programing and talk flowy outfits and a day when I felt really, truly great. Maybe it was the ocean breeze that cleared my head; maybe it was getting a chance to step away from my responsibilities for a moment; maybe it was just that I felt prettier in the dress that I wore to Saturday night's wedding than almost anything I've ever worn. For a minute there I just felt like me: nothing more, nothing less.
Well...me plus a little neon.
You might have noticed that I wear a lot of pieces that are so breezy they verge on (or actually kind of are) see-through. What can I say? Bulky fabrics make me crazy; especially in the summer, it's the lighter the better.
When it comes to the undergarments I like to pair with these sheer pieces, I'm extremely picky, and of two minds: I think they should either be really, really obvious and make it crystal-clear that you meant for them to be seen (like this)...or disappear seamlessly under your clothing, leaving no hint of their existence.
For the former look, I go for bright colors, pretty straps, and contrasting patterns, but it's the latter that's a little tricky: you want a bra that's next-to-invisible against your skin, and is smooth enough to be undetectable under even the flowiest fabrics.
My collaboration with DKNY is now live on Bloomingdale's.com!
Click over to check out six looks I styled for summer events ranging from a picnic in the park to a weekend trip to a Summer Friday (plus videos, recipes, packing suggestions, and more).

Still one of my favorite styles.
And your curls will last all night long - promise.
