Lina , intern for Nylon and MTV

Got Her : Sitting on a bench near Spring Street

Stalked Her : Because we see cute flats all over the city- but never paired with socks!

Shot Her : Because layering is difficult when it's 88 degrees, but Lina had it figured out.

She Says : "My socks are Michael Kors, and this dress is from Forever 21. But shh- it's actually a skirt!"

We Say : Frock-a-doodle doo!

Unrelated, but courtesy www.shopdiary.com : the Old Navy knockoff of the gorgeous Mike & Chris "Bailey" bubble hoodie dress is now in stores and online, for $34.50. I believe that I first saw the Old Navy version here on fashionista, too!
(sizing runs really, really small: I think an Old Navy S is a 3, M is a 5-7, and so on.)

Nadarine, we've been tracking that hoodie for a while; if you change out the buttons, you'd never be able to tell it was a fake:

hee, I always experimented with the skirt as strapless dress thing in the comfort of my own room, but never had the guys to do it on the street. I like the shirt.

Faran: thanks for linking back to the original post! Seriously, since you put that photo up, I've been checking the Old Navy website every other day to see when their knockoff would finally hit stores. (because $308 for a hoodie is, unfortunately, never gonna happen.)

Def cute - I really like her hair too! And the belt is adorable. I've been wanting a great elastic belt to cinch some of me dresses...
Intern for Nylon AND MTV? No wonder...
