It’s fun to see what’s happening on the runways, but more importantly I love to see how people interpret styles on the streets. One of the street styles I vibed with this summer was sequins during the day. Sequins is a look that is normally associated with the evening and holidays, so it was very charming to see it out boldly in the summer daylight. I know there is a whole war on [...]
My favorite time to wear white and cream is actually in the winter! Wearing white in summer, although practical to keep cool, is just too stressful for me. I am not neat enough for it. I sweat and get my brown makeup everywhere! Not to mention sweat in white is not too forgiving. I walk around like a robot with my arms out trying not to touch or move, so I don't do it [...]
I grew up in the 90's and I don't think I could have imagined at the time it would be my favorite fashion era. I remember distinctively as a little kid having a conversation with my dad asking him what the 90's would be known for in terms of fashion. I was very concerned that my growing years could not compare to the 70's and 80's and that I was being short changed. I [...]
Can you believe it’s almost 2019?? I don’t know about you, but it feels like the older I get the quicker the years fly by. New Year’s Eve has never been a big thing to me in terms of resolutions (only in terms of turning up!). I always celebrate the new year on my birthday. I set my goals and resolutions around my age. My b-day is in August, so [...]
I have so many things I am really happy about in 2018. Starting this blog is one of them. I traveled a lot. I found my stride at work. I let go of old baggage ( the emotional kind, not the Gucci kind) andddd (drum roll please) animal prints and faux fur are THE THING this year. I know...the last one seems out of place from the rest, but you got to take the [...]
I cannot believe it’s almost Christmas (says everyone every single Christmas)!I actually am not a big Christmas person. I guess it’s because I don’t have kids and I just dread running around buying random nonsense gifts for Karen and whoever at the office. You know those cheesy ones they put in the checkout aisle to tempt you? They are like ear buds and jelly beans and socks. I mean, honestly, it’s kind of cute [...]
I am kind of obsessed with leopard print right now. Honestly, I always was! This season, it's legit EVERYWHERE I turn. I am personally excited because I finally am not the only one being extra and showing up to the party in a leopard fur! I recently purchased an 80’s style leopard jumpsuit from Marbles Vintage on my trip to Amsterdam last month and I am DY-ING over it. The tag says it was [...]
It’s so stylish. The street style in Amsterdam is really on another level. It’s the best I have seen anywhere. Italian style is more like effortless elegance. Amsterdam style is effortless rocker urban hippie chic. I spotted a ton of leather, fur coats mixed with chunky boots and ripped jeans. Everything felt really young, fresh and cutting edge. There were lots of variations of current trends like animal prints and plaids. The shopping was [...]
I love lots of things, clothes being very high on the list and travel is right on up there. I have noticed a thing or two as I have prepared for travel and navigated my way through the airport. I am headed off to Amsterdam today and hope you can use some of the tidbits I have learned along the way on your own adventures. Google Flights is my boyfriend Er mi GAWDDD. Google [...]
