A few weeks ago, I came across the chicest lady while walking around downtown: toting an Hermès Kelly on her forearm and sporting a combination of black cigarette trousers, a striped boatneck sweater, and an oversized camel cashmere wrap, she was the epitome of effortless elegance. Although she was older in her years, seeing the way she carried herself with such ease and grace has since been inspiring me to veer towards the simple and classic. And when I saw this sweater dress at Zara last Thursday, I knew it was the ideal piece to do just that.
