For what to wear, we flew over to Nordstrom and found these beautifully chic looks in earth tones inspired by nature and Audubon New York’s mission. We love the understated elegance and impact of these oh-so-flattering Nicole Miller dresses in shades of bronzed putty, and we completed the ensembles with complementary neutrals, incorporating hints of turquoise that remind us of the waters of the Long Island Sound.
