Last week while walking our pup through Central Park a sweet Scandinavian tourist asked us if we could take a photo of her and her boyfriend. If I also had my camera with me I would have snapped a photo of her myself just because her outfit was adorable. In Double Take style, I figured I would try to recreate it:

Navy is a color that I am always drawn to so it’s no surprise that I loved her tulip style skirt. David Szetzo’s version is the closest match I could find and could be casually paired with a white tank from Old Navy. These Bo’em Gladys sandals look quite comfortable and the entire ensemble could be accessorized with the Beatriz bangle set from Forever 21 plus a simple tan tote. To give your outfit that something extra, you could top it off with feathery fantastic from the talented girls over at ban.do.
The next day I brought my camera along and snapped a quick photo at the same spot by Conservatory Water. It’s a little pond where kids and adults excitedly rent remote controlled boats and sail them along the water. We now steer our dog in this direction
