Ruffle Mania

Fall est arrivé. Summer has abandoned us for cooler temps, shorter days, cozy sweaters, and butternut squash. I am also embracing my fondness for ruffles. Ruffle Mania has taken over the fashion world and I want it all. Change allows us to people forward and embrace the moment, but it... Read More

Neutral Territory

Personal style isn’t about chasing all the top trends that are sent down the runway. Instead its about curating your own versions of the trends, making them a part of your arsenal, and making them work for you. Whichever trends you are to try, be roared to stand by them... Read More

Sale Round-ups

Coming back from a long, and fun Memorial weekend and sitting in front of my computer on a Tuesday, just means one thing. Fancy sales hitting my inbox. I first check out the sites, Net-a-Porter, and then Moda Operandi from my top priority hit list, put stuff in my cart, and... Read More

The Spring Boot

Today on Things I want, Most likely won’t get, but Secretly Crave–enter the gladiator sandal/boots from Alexander Wang that re-surfaced on the runways marking the debut of a controversial affair that has lasted for years.

Sitting at my desk, I have an unobstructed vantage point, being able to finally see the... Read More
