Purple

 I’ve realized over time that colour is my best friend.

I cut the sleeves off this hot pink t-shirt to make it more masculine and added pinstriped grey slouchy trousers.  I lucked out having these mens braces in dark purple.

Speaking of purple, apparently 15% of New Yorkers wear purple undies (according to Hanes and the #UnderCoverColor campaign). I went full on purple bra and bottoms.  Feels good to wear something bright underneath. Check undercovercolor.com to see where the colour you wear ranks on the above graphic.

Try Wang (very similar), Jerome Dreyfus or Cleobella. Trousers: H&M: I love Shopbop’s cropped ones.  Lipstick: MAC ‘Show Orchid’ Sticker tattoo: from my friend’s daughter

Summer’s officially done but I want to wear more colour in autumn and winter – too much choice around to stick with just black.
