Welcome to Letters from the City, a lifestyle photoblog.
My name is Alex and I have been blogging in some form or another since 1998. I’m a former Manhattanite now living the quieter life in Brooklyn. I like outerwear and red lipstick.
When I was younger, I was let loose in a GAP Kids one too many times, resulting in many of the fashion choices you see here in my photos. I also read, traveled, and took cooking and art classes. Art eventually led me around to photography, and to this day I do enjoy a good brunch.
Thank you for visiting! I hope you'll stay a while and get to know me. Learn More →

Alex, I love that crochet shirt! And what a great thrifted find? Marc Jacobs?
Alex Elizabeth says
I think it is, but it could be the Marc line as well. I’m not sure and the tags are no help– both lines are made in the US. The stitching on the whole tag is done in white, instead of white thread for Marc and black thread for Jacobs… although the shirt could just be too old for that particular branding, haha. What do you think?

Hello gorgeous! That top is super pretty, and having that rich color by your face is so lovely. Also lusting after your oversized tote.
