FashionWalking Manhattan: From Orchid to Carroll Gardens

Fall is in the air throughout all of Manhattan–a walk down Orchid Street in the East Village, a walk across Manhattan Bridge, a stroll through Brooklyn Heights and Montague Street, and a trip to Cobble Hill and Carroll Gardens. Pumpkins, salted caramel, brisk air and warm drinks are just a few things that come to mind as fall approaches! Boots, leather jacket, fur vest and leather gloves are must-haves for cool outdoor walks.

300 miles, 6 hours, 2 stops and a drive through the gorgeous foliage of New York State later we arrived in Montréal, Canada. A quaint, french-speaking city with a perfect balance of history and up and coming alternative neighborhoods. The crisp fall weather had me bundling up in my favorite fall accessories as we strolled along Mont-Royal Parc.

FashionWalking Manhattan, NYC: 57th Street

The best time to walk around New York City in the Fall is 7PM–my walk back home from work. When the sun sets and reflects off of all the skyscrapers in midtown, the sky turns to a subdued hue of purple and pink and all of Midtown's stores light up the streets.

Tadashi Shoji may not be a household name, but his world renowned figure-flattering techniques from draping, ruching and shutter pleats have appealed both to the masses and celebrities. This season, Tadashi found inspiration for his Spring 2017 collection in artist Wu Junyong's video The Flying Ark. The video was of a crane lifting a tree full of animals from a scorched earth.
