Clayton Girl {Dooney & Bourke}

So you may have noticed my presence here was somewhat sparse lately (to say the least!) but I’m absolutely thrilled to be writing this from the last drops of my energy for the day because this post is a double celebration! As a perfect gift for my new position (!!! Yes indeed, say hello to the new Assistant Designer for the outerwear division at DVF) Dooney & Bourke completely spoiled me with this beauty of a classic, to accompany a whole new segment in my wardrobe. It’s funny how all off a sudden my skimpy skirts don’t really make a whole lot of sense in the workplace, not because someone will ever comment (or care, it’s fashion after all…!) but because – these days I crave to define myself and the way I dress in a new manner, prioritize some things above others and evolve into this new role I’m so eager to explore. In other words, I am beyond excited!!! Hope you enjoy the first look out of a series I did in collaboration with Alexa Koegel (aka Lexii Kay) for the latest Harper’s BAZAAR styling adventure…! And a huge thank you to the lovely Maura Burns for the impeccable pony-tail!
