You already got a sneak peek of the outfit I wore to the Tracy Reese show when I took you backstage with Mary Kay. Well here’s the full look! Tie-necks are a huge trend for fall. Even though I packed a zillion looks for New York Fashion Week I couldn’t help but do a little shopping when I had an hour of downtime between shows. I instantly fell in love with this snakeskin dress (clearly I’ve developed a thing for the animal print!). The lightweight style is so comfy, perfect for hot late summer days. When it cools down I plan on wearing it tucked into a leather skirt to turn it into a blouse.

I pictured it with a smoky eye and nude lip. But since I decided to go shopping, I had very little time to get ready. So I went with a natural face like the models at Tracy Reese and just added a bold lip. It was a lot of color with the dress but I ended up really liking the contrast. I met up with my fashion week girl squad to go to the show. Sheryl, Mara, Christine and I all laughed when we saw each other. We coordinated without even planning it! It made for perfect photos.
