Sometimes all you need is a good outfit and a nice day in DUMBO.
I really don’t take advantage of Brooklyn as much as I should. So when one of my favorite people in the world (Andrea) invited me to a Friendsgiving dinner that she was hosting at her apartment in Brooklyn, I obviously was so excited! Before heading to her home, Allie and I ventured to DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) to shoot this casual look.
I chose an all black look because, well, I was rushing and didn’t like the outfit I planned in my head (Ladies, let this be a reminder to always try your outfit on a few days before the occasion.) Now I’m going to be honest, I hadn’t washed my hair in two days (#sorrynotsorry), so I was lucky that I had just gotten this fun baseball cap.
Normally, I throw on my Pirates baseball cap, but we all know that those are for the reeeeeeeeally bad hair days and for much less casual looks. I wanted to accessorize a bit more, so I put on the newest addition to my watch collection – my Armitron watch. I love how it’s a leather band, but has pretty details on the face…which means I can pretty much wear it with anything! I chose to get the rose gold watch, because…..well, do I really need to explain why?
I’m partnering with Armitron watches during the Holiday season to spread the word about their amazing watches for women and men! They’re all at SUCH a great price point which makes them perfect to gift to a few of your friends and family members! I have my eye on this one for Matt!;) I also love the sport watches they carry – great for the athletes in your life (I wish I had this one when I was an avid runner in high school!)

I’ve been wanting to check out Dumbo but haven’t made the trip yet! Even though Brooklyn is so close it feels so far away!

Love this! Also, I can’t believe your shots on that stairway turned out so well! We could not get the lighting to work in our favor!

Oh girl, I’m obsessed with these shots. DUMBO seems like such a picturesque place! Your outfit is totally up my alley – though I certainly can’t pull off a baseball cap as well as you. Such a cute look!
