Until Next Time, New York


 Location: East Village, NYC
Shop this look: Nordstrom blazer (similar) // Navy tank // Gap patterned shorts
Via Spiga sandals // Tan purse (from Italy, similar here)

As I write this post from my philosophy class in a building surrounded by cornfields at the University of Illinois,  I can't help but miss my neighborhood in the East Village this summer (and the Insta-worthy stairs of nearby townhouses, of course). In New York, you can never run out of fun things to do, between the shopping, restaurants, college bars and more. I especially loved discovering vintage clothing stores, going to free concerts and festivals in the parks and trying Afghan and Indian food for the first time. Since I worked every day 9 to 5, I would explore the city at night after my shift. I love this outfit because it was a stress-free style to quickly change into after work. The blazer from work gave the outfit polish, while patterned shorts made it a more casual, fun night look. I think this is a great outfit for the first few weeks of school as well. 

Be on the lookout for back-to-school and fall fashion posts soon!!
