London Fashion Week: Street Style Ready
ASOS Sweatshirt | Pink Aviators | Acne studios Beanie | Pants Finders Keepers | Cobalt Coat Fashion week Part II, aka London is upon us and I couldn’t be happier. I recently read an article about how Raf Simmons taking over the helm of Calvin Klein was perhaps the worst thing to happen to American fashion in a while. Their reasoning: American fashion has become a bit one-note and we are now importing ‘American fashion’ from Europe.

Nordstrom Pop-In KBeauty: All the Products You Didn’t Know Existed that You Need NOW
Nordstrom just launched it’s KBEAUTY Pop-Up Shop this Friday featuring Korean Beauty products and I am officially in love. I visited the physical shop on Friday and absolutely loved while being simultaneously overwhelmed by the many options and different products I had never even known existed on the market. Korean Beauty is a somewhat cult-ish category of products, it is said that South Korea is 10 years ahead of the U.S. in their skincare product development and whether or you not you believe from what I have seen their products do color a different scope than I am used to and at a much more affordable price (at least in…

Welcome to Fall 2017 Fashion Month: What to Expect
Make yourself a pot of coffee and double check to make sure your ‘Pin’ button is installed in your browser because it is Fashion Month people! Wahoo!
