Fall Trends from NYFW: Chain Print
My first interaction with a ‘chain print’ this year came at a thrift store. There was an oversized vintage track jacket with gold chain and plaid print. It was over the top, gaudy and magical and I of course had to buy it. Little did I know that plaid and chain prints would be huge this year! At NYFW it was hard to miss that the Versace inspired chain print was already a huge trend for Fall 2018. Not only did I see the same Zara scarf/chain print dress on at LEAST 10 people but there was a lot of creative styling of this trend as well. This is an…

3 Pieces of Advice for Bloggers: Overheard at NYFW
Bloggers of all kinds seem to love to write posts about giving advice to each other. How to get started, how to be a blogger and how to make money. Those are big topics that bloggers like to cover however I usually don’t agree with the format in which they are shared.

Bike Shorts: The Hottest Trend for NYFW & How to Wear Them
When fashion month began in Europe in August I had a hunch that bike shorts would be the hottest trend for Fall, but I think I underestimated how big it was going to be. New York Fashion week starts this week and already I can tell this is going to be the IT-trend on the streets outside the shows. Like mini-sunglasses, knit bags and crocs I am predicting this trend is going to be incredibly short lived so you should get on board while it’s here before it’s gone. Why Everyone Loves Bike Shorts The bike short trend has absolutely caught fire. To figure out why all you have to…
