Crazy Weather New York
I might be wrong but I feel like a lot of the women here in NYC have been shopping for Spring over the last several weeks but the cold temps have been keeping them from breaking out their new purchases which is just killing them!
I have seen only a few young ladies( like the one above) who have successfully layered a Spring-ish dress, over tights and under a wool coat.
The forecast is for another week of this weather in NYC, luckily I'm headed to Milan where Spring has sprung!

Yeah, rub it in! The weather today is apocalyptic.
you should come to Amsterdam, it feels like august over here.
She's done it perfectly. I'm in love with that coat and I want to marry it.
magnificent boots.
She looks great with that sping dress under the beautiful coat! Love it!
go ahead! rub it in!
yes, yes. it's terrible!! all i want is to wear my new spring clothes, but it's COLD.
that said, she is lovely. especially those shoes! where are they from?
bring us amazing new pictures from europe! i need inspiration.
have a safe trip and good luck.
Hello Mr. Sartorialist!
I just came across your blog yesterday and I would like to thank you for the great surprise and how I am enjoing it.
Your images are really interesting. Even If I wasn´t interested in fashion, which, actually, I´m not, these portraits of people in the street are superbe.
These days in Barcelona is the same with the weather and is really complicated to dress properly in order to feel comfortable. Today, you help me!
Thanks again.
It's true! I've been going nuts not being able to wear my patterned summer babydoll dress and shorts and such, so I finally started layering...I simply could not wait any longer!!!
I love the clean look on her esp. the dress and wool coat. However, I'm not fan of the Robin Hood shoes. They weighed her down too much.
Enjoy the beautiful Spring weather in Milan.
anyone know where to get these boots??
Nice one: you are definitely onto something here... it's the dilemma of women all over northeastern North America: what to do when it's grey, freezing and possibly "slushing" in mid-April... A smart example of how to bridge the seasons (spring dress, tights, warm-enough coat, not too wintry boots).
i think girls have been layering out of season dresses all winter
you are right. I packed away my winter clothes and got out the sandals during the warm snap, and am getting antsy. this freezing rain business needs to stop, immediately: my shoulders need to feel the sun.
You are completely right. Although hopefully after all this dreadful rain the weather will get warmer. However, it is an excuse to break out my favorite Marc rain boots...
I love that girl's coat, I've been looking for a shorter wool coat in that exact color for who knows how long... I feel like New York women always wear the most excellent coats.
I love that coat! Very classic. I am itching for the weather to warm up too.
You are SO right- I'm dying to break out all the cute spring stuff I've been buying! But this is not the week :-(
You should come to Sweden, here you go in dresses without tights!
OMG, yes I agree I am dying to wear and burst out my spring dresses and skirt... ugh, This weather is depressing...
Nice outfit! but not so sure about the boots....
you are right in this assumption. i have about 7,000 spring outfits planned!
Her coat is beautiful. does anyone have a clue where it may be from? Most coats that are stunning in street snapshots tend to be from Balenciaga, I wonder if this is the case here...
Oh, Vivienne Westwood pirate boots! They always look great.

Boots are Vivienne Westwood.
Yesterday in Milan the temperature was 26°C! Bring sandals and shorts!
Love the Vivienne Westwood pirate boots. Something about either the angle or the coat and dress lengths foreshortens her legs a little. It's as if she's shortwaisted. I can't make out the perspective - but think she looks great, regardless!
That looks like a Forever 21 dress.
you really hit the nail on the head sart! bring back il sole!
The wool coat and the dress just perfectly matched. Love the wool coat. But the weather over here is killing hot, so it's rarely for us wearing any trench coat under the hot burning sun.
i love this look but i would feel too self-conscious in the boots (even if i liked them). I wonder what the less goofy, yet still interesting, option for footwear would be here? ideas?
Genrally I'm all for season-appropriate - in style as much as in food. Floaty fabrics in the cold seem to me like hearty soup in the heat - unappetizing. But even I've had enough of this neverending winter - all hail layering (even as minimal & streamlined as wool coat over spring frock over tights) as the all-purpose style solution to wacky weather!
I have the same H&M dress and can't wait till it gets warmer, this weather is terribly unpredictable!
Is anyone else tired of the ersatz military look that's been around for the past year or so? I do love the color on this coat, but enough with the dress-up-and-play-soldier stuff (see also Dior Homme Femme, part deux).
I love her smile! How do you find the girls with the best smiles, Sart? Or does your taking their picture make all girls smile so beautifully?
I love the dress and the boots. I'm in love with silk print dresses at the moment. They're perfect for warm weather. In London it was 25 celcius yesterday and its going to be about 23 today. Forget about spring - I'm already digging out my summerwear.
Her boots are too cute.
ohhh love this look- especially the boots and the layering - she gives off the appearance of effortless style
She put the outfit together really nice. I am making a mental note to replicate something similar with my wardrobe...

Funny thay you should mention it!!! The spring dress I bought a few weeks ago has been tried on so many times since then, but every moning it had to go back to the closet..so sad! Where on earth is the SUN!?
from gloomy Toronto
I'm going to copy this look tomorrow, as it's starting to get cold here in Australia. But a neat pair of lace-up ankle boots or chunky Mary-Janes would improve it. How can she walk in those Westwood slops?
hate the boots, love the coat.
Do you want to experience some pretty good weather??? You should come to Lisbon, Portugal... It's very hot for this time of the year..like... 25º (celsius of course...)
we all on the East coast have been dealing with spring tease. My daughters, Abi (7) and Molly (5)...have also been trying to pull off the layered spring slash it's still freezing look. Capris with leg warmers, shorts with knee highs and dresses with jean underneath. At least it's not snowing!
Love it, love it, love it. Effortless yet totally cool.
Did anyone notice how the neckline of the dress perfectly hits the coats collar indent (is there a proper word for that?)
The colour combination, the shot of grey cardigan, is brilliant. She looks comfortable AND fashionable, how many people can do that!
"et voilà !" as i could say...
A really fantastic style for ethics wear
thanx

they are vivienne westwood pirate boots.
The Westwood boots - see a similar style by trippen!
great look, love the coat and top underneat seem to match really well
Similar boots are offered at Te Casan in New York - designed by Zoe Lee. They are great!
The boots might be the Vivienne Westwood pirate boots. Sienna Miller was wearing the similar boots. http://modelitoscelebrity.blogspot.com/2008/04/sienna-miller-in-hollywood.html
