You were wild once, don’t let them tame you. It’s funny the way fashion can make you feel. And this look made me feel powerful. The rich velvet navy blue, the statement necklace and slingback flats/ metallic booties gave this look such attitude and confidence. But that’s the thing about fashion, it can make you look like you are confident and strong but maybe you’re not. So, today I wanted to talk about finding your strength. When you feel weak and defeated, where do you look for your strength to get by? How you can find your strength: Know where…
The Westchester, a Simon Mall, has always been my one stop shop. It also holds a special place in my life. Growing up in Westchester it was one of the first places my friends and I were allowed to roam free, unchaperoned, for a few hours. It’s also where, at thirteen years old, I purchased my first Coach bag, all on my own. It’s where I found inspiration to style outfits for work. I realize it’s just a place, so don’t think I’m some vain, trivial, brat because I’m not. I mean I also used to hang out at train…
After NYFW I’m feeling energized and inspired. Between the shows and the street style there is no lack of outfit inspiration. So with all this new found style knowledge I’ve gained over the past few weeks, I wanted to share it with you!

I find that most collections are only as strong and it’s hero piece, and that red coat just blows me away! Military inspired jackets and beautiful feminine flowy tops make the collection unforgettable. The mix of edgy and feminine is perfect. If you’re looking for items to spruce up your Fall wardrobe, Banana Republic is the right place. The cuts of the pieces are relatively true to BR’s regular fits and items are offered in regular and petite. Palermo truly…
Hello, twenty-seven… If I wrote this post when I planned to (last weekend) it would have been exceptionally different. Crazy what a day makes, huh? Did I keep my promises to myself and others? How much did I grow personally and professionally? Is this where I want to be? Is this where I thought I’d be? Have I challenged myself enough? I didn’t think I’d still be so confused about my “purpose” at twenty-seven. I’ve always said I have this gut feeling I’m meant to do something grand. To help by inspiring others, to lead and motivate. It would be…
“The trees are about to show us how lovely it is to let dead things go” Sweater: H&M | Pants: H&M (old), similar, similar | Shoes: Yosi Samra (use SIMONE20 for 20% off!) | Earrings: Bauble Bar | Sunglasses: Perverse | Bag: Chloe, similar, steal Fall is great time to embrace change and to progress in a better direction. Let’s face it, putting your best foot forward isn’t always the easiest thing to do. Especially after a disagreement or in a discouraging environment. You try and try but somehow you still find yourself in a not-so-great place. It’s like putting…
