Fall Finds

I am on a number of committees and have been working on them throughout the summer. Come September, I will need to hit the ground running and be ready to get dressed. The Proenza Schouler leather skirt is a keeper and the Carolina Herrera cape is on its way. Celine did not produce the black cape I’d wanted, so I had one made — more on that later. The Carven tunic is now in the shop, but it looks like it runs small so I will try it in Paris. No idea if the Dries van Noten dress will fit or suit me, but I like that it’s a bit louche and unlike anything I own. Lord knows I don’t need new shoes, but I keep eyeing these Liisa Pumps by The Row and may try them when they are in stores. After admiring my friend’s lip color, YSL 44 Nude Lavalliére, for the 100th time, she gave me one and it is now my favorite. And, a new piece of Sidney Garber jewelry is always a good idea.

  • This looks like a happy fall season! I’m anxious to hear more about the pumps ~ that heel is right up my alley! And YSL lipsticks in that gorgeous gold/enamel/refillable case continues to be my favorite lipstick. Like jewelry in my handbag!

  • I purchased the PS leather skirt. Its great but it may be a touch too big. Can a leather skirt be taken in?
    Thanks!

  • I went down a size. Yes, a leather skirt can be taken in.

  • They are very similar shades, but the Hermès is more matte.

  • Preston, can’t wait to hear your thoughts on CH cape! I have been eyeing it since you first posted about it. It was so exquisite on the runway.
