On the morning that these photos were taken, I had a million things to do before I left the house. Nate woke up cranky and earlier than usual, and when it was time for me get ready, I was a frazzled mess, knowing I didn’t have much time. I was heading into the city for a few meetings about an upcoming project, followed by shooting my outfit, plans that were several days before.

With little time to think (and failing to properly plan the night before), I opted for one of my go-to winter work day outfits: high waisted jeans, a black turtleneck sweater, a classic pointy-toed bootie and some of my favorite accessories, including these amazing sunglasses I just had to have. They’re probably the most ridiculously expensive sunglasses I’ve ever owned, but  thankfully I had a Barneys gift card that covered more than half the cost.

    I’ve always found that the most stylish outfits are the ones that are created during a spur of a moment. That said, I absolutely love this pairing. You look so chic and those jeans fit you like a glove! Thanks for sharing and I hope you have the best week ahead!

    Hello! Just wondering how tall you are? I am 5’7″ and weight about 127 lbs. Do you think a small or a medium for that jacker? I have been looking for one just like it!

    Thanks!

    Meghan

    • Helena

      Hmmm! I would get a small if you want it more fitted looking and a medium if you want it roomier!
