I grew up in the era of TLC and Aaliyah, so crop tops and baggy jeans were pretty much my (and my generation’s) standard uniform. Plus, in high school I worked at Merry-Go-Round and Dr. Denim, two stores that catered to the TLC/Aaliyah crowd, so most of my wardrobe was sourced from there, and other […] Read More »
Three Ways to Wear: A Striped Blouse
My taste in fashion has changed over the years (as it should). In my twenties, I was more interested in fast fashion – I’d buy a new top or outfit just to wear to the club on a Friday night. I’d get a little more wear out of these party clothes but they weren’t sustainable. […] Read More »

New Year’s Eve in Black & White

It’s the most traditional color pairing and most of us have plenty of black and white clothes in our closets, which makes it easy to create a classic look! I’ve always been the girl who loved to wear all black (thus being […] Read More »

9 Must-Have MAC Lipsticks
It’s hard to find a makeup lover without a MAC lipstick or two, or ten, or more (*guilty*) in their collection! Although, compared to some of my beauty blogger friends, I consider myself a MAC lightweight: I only own a little over 20 MAC lipsticks and a handful of MAC lip glosses. But still, MAC […] Read More »
California Cool
California is one of my favorite places because it’s just so laid-back, beautiful and cool. Of course that extends to fashion. While East Coast style (especially in NYC) is more trendy and glam, California style is more simple and chic. Dressing is easy – it’s as simple as throwing on a white tee and denim […] Read More »
