Shifting seasons always test my styling instincts. Lately, though, I've fallen for knee-high socks paired with the right dress — one that lets just a hint of skin show (wink wink). Layering is my favorite game, and I'm honestly impressed when I can stack pieces and still stay within a single solid palette — in this look I'm clearly repping RAIDER NATION. Dressing for New York's changing weather has truly been a journey for my fashion sense.

Transitional dressing doesn't have to mean a whole new wardrobe. Building autumn looks around pieces you already own — a thrifted sweater, a simple grey dress, a pair of knee-high socks — keeps your closet conscious while still feeling fresh. Layering in one solid color family is an easy way to make secondhand and ethical staples look intentional.
