Fall weather is officially upon us here in NYC, so seeing these photos from Lincoln Center this past week when it was up in the 80's is making me cringe with jealousy at my former self.

I was really excited to unveil my new bag from Rebeca Minkoff, which I've been wearing a lot to classes since when it's not folded over like I have it here, it fits a laptop, books and all the necessities. Plus, I tend to be monochrome in school and reach for mostly black ensembles, so the pop of turquoise is really nifty.

I've been really in love with backless tops lately. Like, a lot. I guess it's my way of conforming to the fading warmth from summer. This piece from Joie is actually pretty nifty in that it has closures on the back so if you don't want to be crazy like me and expose where the sun don't usually shine, you can snap the back together for a lovely arrangement of layered folds instead. Also on replay are my Qupid flats, which I wore like crazy all throughout Fashion Week to save my feet from all the walking, or in this case, dancing in public.
