Acne T-shirt McGuire denim skirt Bossa satin bombers, SHOP SIMILAR Bow Belt Rabbit Rabbit. Happy first day of August! Here we are on a beautiful summer’s day, I am drinking my iced latte, and talking about denim, a basic that will always stand the test of time. Jeans and denim jackets are my go-to classics, but a denim skirt took me back a few years. When I first realized that denim skirts were making a comeback, I hesitated to jump on this trend. After all, I lived through the 70’s. Back then, I used to wear polos and t-shirts with my denim. Now, fashion is different, but it’s not. After some deliberation, the realization hit me. I live in all things denim and comfort to me, always... Read More

I believe consumers feel the same way. I shop on instagram for inspiration, scour vintage sites online, and as a result, I am adding to the failing retail system. There are so many great things to be discovered online, and the value in committing to the centralized space that is a singular specialty retailer or department store doesn’t hold as much weight as it used to. Does fashion ruffle your feathers anymore? Do you still shop in-store? My feeling is, If I am going to spend, I only want to buy statement... Read More

After all, it’s the same length as the kind of prom dresses school deans would approve of, graduation gowns, and button-front sundresses.

Khaki Over Black

12 Jun 2017

Will not bore you with the details, as I am sure you can all relate. But as a constant do-er, it was, and still is hard for me to sit still. A change from regular programming, I had a few takeaways from the experience. I decided to take a more positive approach about the situation. One of the perks to being at home, was that I cleaned out my closets. I still was hanging onto some items that I no longer love, and was also missing some key pieces. For those feeling like their daily getup is getting... Read More
