What NYC Recessionista Wears: Urban safari

Once I got dressed yesterday, I looked down and then immediately felt like I should be headed on a safari somewhere 🙂

But since I was headed to the subway and to work, I figured an urban safari would have to do …


Prima Donna necklace (similar) Gap cardigan / Old Navy dress (similar) / watch c/o Caravelle by Bulova (similar) / Century 21 leggings (similar) / J. Crew boots (similar)

I found this necklace for $11 at a tiny little hole in the wall boutique in my neigborhood … I love those kinds of finds!  I love the combination of the blue, gray and mustard-y yellow.

I never would’ve thought to pair this dress with this necklace, but you should always play around with what you have … that’s exactly how you find new color combinations.
