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.

Leanne Marshall SS18 NYFW Runway

Leanne Marshall SS18 Three words come to mind when I think of Leanne Marshall. They are timeless, elegant and colorful. Marshall’s highly anticipated ready to wear collection was bold and bright. And as for a girl that doesn’t wear much color, all I have to say the color hues were perfect. I do enjoy a bold pop of color, but the color has to be just right. If I were ever to wear a pink dress, the below one is all me. I loved that the garments were flowy and free. Each piece had great movement which is key in…

Taoray Wang SS18 NYFW Runway

Taoray Wang SS18 Wang Tao is know as “queen of the suit” and I couldn’t agree more. Of everything presented in the runway collection, I couldn’t keep my eyes off the suits. The work wear inspiration was apparent in many of the pieces. I love the shoulders, pinstripes and my favorite? The blazer dress paired with the pleated waistband! The waistband was shown on a few pieces and what a statement it made on a seemingly basic items. Something I’m going to try styling myself is a long blouse under a skirt. It’s a great way to add depth to…

Yosi Samra And The Reality Of NYFW

Want to know what NYFW is really like? It’s a hustle. You run from show to show, trying your best to get there. They ask you arrive thirty minutes early. On a lucky day in New York you’re on time. Uptown, downtown, East Village, Chelsea Piers, One World Trade, hotels, parks, in the street… shows and presentations can be anywhere in the city. The creativity that goes into these shows is endless, which includes the location. New York City is only thirteen miles long and two miles wide, and about 90% of the time, walking to your next appointment is…

Creating New Habits – I’m Back And Better Than Ever

Wow, what a week off will do for you. Since I started my blog over three years ago I’ve been strict with posting on Instagram and my site. Monday, Wednesday and Friday’s [like clockwork] have mostly been my normal post dates until recently. Aiming to change it up a bit I’ve gone off this schedule and have been trying to listen to you, my readers, more. But still, I rarely miss a week. Giving out advice on fashion and life can sometimes put you into interesting situations. As much as I wanted to go, go, go last week, I decided…

Dealing With A Bad Day – When Nothing Goes Right, Go Left

It’s not a bad life, just a bad day. Happy Friday! I was basically on the brink of a nervous breakdown every day this week. So I thought it would be great to talk about how to deal with a bad day. Or a bad week, month ect. Because they do happen, even if you’re living your best life, like I am in these photos. I’m really good at brushing things that bother me off. But sometimes the littlest thing (like when I spilled coffee all over my vanity yesterday) sets me off. It’s like the straw that breaks the…
