IRL Issue 12: Style in Real Life
Laurel Wells - Height: 5'7 - what do you do IRL?: I design clothing for Hayden Harnett, practice and sometimes teach yoga, play in bands, and turn my apartment into a national disaster area with my frequent manic craft projects. - your URL?: http://www.laurelwells.com - why did you choose this look? - The print on this dress is so gorgeous and eye-catching without being flashy, and I love the element of surprise as it just peeps out from under the coat. The Athena sac is perfect for me because I ride my bike everywhere and the strap is long enough to wear cross-body. The shoes are just fantastic--extremely comfortable (I know this for a fact--I broke them in at the Masters in Augusta) and dressy enough to wear at night. I adore Oblique jewelry, it is so delicate and this necklace doesn't overwhelm the bold print on the dress. - what she's wearing: -HELENA Wrap Dress, painterly $324 -PARKER Canvas Trench, crown blue $298 -ATHENA Sac, Brandy $398 -ATHENA Cuff, moonbeam $66 -ATHENA Sandal, Moonbeam $158 -IRIS Tassel Clip, Multi-color $28 -OBLIK ATELIER GUGGENHEIM ring* $375 -oblik atelier 'slice' necklace* $185
Sara Zucker - height: 4'10 in flats, up to 5'3 in heels - what do you do IRL?: - Right now I'm a 'professional intern', working in the archive of a Vanderbilt mansion/museum. My free time has been spent cooking new and old family recipes, keeping my hands busy with arts & crafts projects, taking voice lessons, and applying for jobs since my completion of graduate school two weeks ago. - your URL?: http://www.sarazucker.com - http://blog.styld.me/ - why did you choose this look? - chose this look because I am trying to branch out of my usual layered look of vintage flannels and hoodies. The silk of this dress was so buttery, I couldn't help myself, and grey is my favorite shade. The purse added the perfect pop of color and its threading matched the detail of the dress. I loved the sandals and was shocked at how well they fit (it's so hard to find size 5s!). - what she's wearing: -FORTUNA Dress, Pebble $308 -LORCA Turnlock, Lagoon $335 -ISKIA Link Wedge, Black $238 -oblik atelier 'the fall' earrings*, $300
