I'm Daft

Who, besides me, does her shopping for fashion week 1-2 days before it begins? Just curious, as I don't want to be the only dumbass running desperately around midtown. But really I'm not stressing too much as if you're not a celeb, socialite or famous editor, no one's really looking. So I just try and make a bigger effort with the clothes. You know, get all the cat hair off.

Of course I'll be wearing......34th Street. And a lot from Daffy's, too, as I spent many hours in there yesterday and am going back today to look for this:









The item (Patrizia Pepe, $69.99) that I should have bought and couldn't stop thinking about this morning. It's ridiculous. It's a great layering piece. I love it.

Also, a heads up to you midtown girls: Daffy's pickings are prime this week. I'll be posting Daffy's daily through the weekend. Right now, on the sixth floor by the dressing room, there is a major designer happening: Chloe, Valentino, Marc Jacobs and Sonia Rykiel amongst others. I'm not sure if it's last season or older, but the pieces are mostly classic looking. Prices run from $49.99 - $189.99.


Daffy's Herald Square, 34th & Broadway

I found it and bought! Took some rack shuffling, but well worth it.
Eeeps - what they carry, as you know, varies a lot day by day. But yesterday there were two beautiful cream skirts.

You and I have the same definition of making a bigger effort: Remove ALL cathair, instead of just MOST cathair.

Glad you nabbed that top - it's a find. And soooo jealous of the Daffy's treasure trove!

Wow, that piece is fantastic for sprucing up an outfit! I hope you were able to get it when you went back. You've got tickets to Fashion Week?? That's super exciting! I'm jealous!
