[Vanity Fair] A Winter Safari in AKA New York


AKA New York Safari Romper (worn as a top), American Apparel Multi-Layered Reversible Petticoat, YSL Tribute Platform Pumps, Henri Bendel Bracelet, and Michael Kors Watch.

I absolutely love my AKA New York Safari Romper but wearing a silk onesie during the fall/winter months would be grounds for my committal to an asylum. So, I did what any young woman, desperate to continue wearing her favorite spring/summer piece (within some measure of reason) would do; I layered. I paired the romper with opaque tights and placed a petticoat over-top the bottom half of the romper, concealing the shorts. And as luck would have it, the sleeves on the romper can be adjusted to wrist length. Granted, my look is nowhere near "on trend," but you know I don't care about that. I just care about my romper seeing the light of day before April 2012.

Loving the military vibe of the top/romper... Be sure to post the romper in its full glory once it's warm enough!
