Hello Yellow! 1 Easy Trick to Breathe New Life into Last Year’s Favorite Color
It’s a common misconception that as a fashion blogger I am all about things that are ‘new new new!’ While the latest and the greatest thing is nice to have the best items are those that you can wear season after season. I feel that way about a lot of the colors I have in my wardrobe. Red-Orange, Mustard and Cobalt blue are absolute staples in my closet but I am always looking for new ways to make them feel fresh and new. Last year was a big moment for Mustard in particular and I stocked up on rich hued yellow items. This year it’s a big deal too but…

It has been 20 years since Sex & the City first aired and this has been the absolute talk of the town lately. I will leave it to other, more qualified writers to espouse what we learned from this series and what it meant about our social norms. When it comes to fashion however, I will happily discuss one thing it ingrained in our collective psyche that I still have not forgotten: evening wear for daytime.

The Best Skirt EVER from Ganni
There is a cult following behind the Copenhagen-based label Ganni, and for good reason. Everywhere you look you see ‘cool’ women throwing on their easy sweaters, dresses and separates like they were their favorite pajamas. ‘Effortless’ is a Ganni description of their Ganni Girls, a Copehhagan girl squad of women we all aspire to be. I have been personally following the label for some time despite the fact that it isn’t very easy to get a hold of in Seattle. Your buying options are Pipe & Row (thank you for carrying them!) or the internet, so when an opportunity arose to visit their Pop-In during Fashion Week in NYC I took…

Spring Transitions with a PAWS Graphic Tee
One of my favorite things about fashion is its versatility especially when it comes to your expressing your mood. Fashion can be serious, bold, playful and downright outrageous. In the endless winter we seem to be having it’s that playfulness that I have been craving. One of my favorite items to add levity to a look while helping it navigate the seasons is this PAWS graphic tee. The graphic tee is a great piece to help transition your wardrobe from season to season. In cold weather it is an easy layering piece, when it warms up it becomes the center of your look. This year Spring has been a fickle…
