Kiernan Shipka Shows Us There's More to Summer Than White Dresses

In my fantasy future for Sally Draper, the character Kiernan Shipka played on "Mad Men" until the show wrapped forever last month, she goes to interesting parties and always looks like the coolest girl in the room. Which pretty much describes Shipka's life currently.

At a party hosted by Coach and Friends of the High Line on Tuesday evening, the 15-year-old went for a tougher look than we usually see her in — a black and gray dress and black chunky sandals with a patterned black bandana around her neck. Even though the styling is straight from the Coach fall 2015 runway, her sunny demeanor gives it new life. Instead of looking like a jaded New Yorker, she looks sophisticated and confident — not to mention, age-appropriate — and even a little playful. Like I said, she's the coolest girl in the room.
