Caroline, Q Train, Manhattan - Brooklyn Commute

Caroline, Graphic Designer

It's difficult to dress for this time of year; we're in transition. Every other day it's hot and cold, and you could get rained on at any moment...solution? A long classic trench - lightweight and long - provides coverage when you need it but isn't too hot.

I caught Caroline on the Q train going over the Manhattan bridge. She's got all her bases covered: the casual boyfriend shirt and the camel trench. Since the Fall runway shows camel is the only color on anyone's mind; Style.com is calling it the "new black."

The whole look is lightened up with these fun sandals from Zara. Love!

Erin, Graphic Designer

Even though she looks great in it, Erin told me she's looking forward to not having to wear her hood anymore. Hopefully after today, she won't have to...

I love the simple military look of this coat; it's a trend that's been noticed on all fronts for both Spring and Fall this year. Fatigue coats are selling out everywhere, but there's some beautiful ones to be found at the flea or thrift store.

But the BEST part is the shoes! I love these shoes so much, they were the first thing I noticed on Erin, and it must have been fate that drew me to them because it turns out they're a label I've been stalking for months. Check it out: Osborn Shoes, all made in Guatemala using fair trade and locally sourced materials. It can't get any better than that!

Watch out for these ones - they seem sweet as pie but they're lookin' for trouble! Love the high hems and high heels.
