The Dish on Thanksgiving Feast Fashion

Edited by

Time is a-ticking closer to the one day a year when it is socially appropriate to stuff our faces and gorge our bodies with salty, buttery, meaty, buttery, delicious, salty, carbaceous foodstuffs. The spread is beautiful but the aftermath is less so; the words “bloated” and “food baby” come to mind. Which is why you need a specific kind of outfit to cope with such matters.

Thou wouldst to wear a muumuu, else nothing,

***Sparknotes version: Three looks for work on a summer’s day. All made in the USA, shoes not withstanding. See it all here.

Canadian Store Pops Up in Soho

Aritzia is opening a pop up “Shop Before the Shop” in Soho this weekend, and pretty much couch surfing there until her permanent two story home opens this May.

Just a spot of fur, say, around the shoulders or over the ears, can keep my whole body snug as a bug in a rug. You know, as in one of those full bearskin rugs on the floor in front of a fireplace in a cabin in Aspen.
