Off-Duty Style With Pom Pom Sneakers
‘Off-duty style’, as it’s called these days is one of my favorite ways of dressing: casual with a nonchalant attitude. While casual wear has always had a place in fashion recently it has been taking center stage.

You have to love when new trends start emerging as the seasons change because 1) It’s something new and fresh to try in your wardrobe and 2) it’s a great excuse to go shopping. New items that have different prints and silhouettes are also a great way to revitalize existing pieces in your wardrobe as well. Starting with the Bell Sleeve: this was a trend that was worn by almost every single Fashion week attendee this past month regardless of their age or style sense. Why? It is such a fun easy way to update the basic blouse or shirt that we wear in some form or another almost every…

2 of My FAVORITE Fall Trends & The Best Place to Buy Vintage Inspired Band Tee’s
You barely need to look outside to know it’s Fall here in Seattle. The biting wind on your commute to work or the multi-colored leaves littering the sidewalk all solidify the fact that yes, the season’s have changed which means it’s time for some new trends. Now that we have had a full fashion month of fashionistas showing off their finest looks there are a few of these trends that REALLY stand out and that I am personally thrilled to embrace. The first would be the Band Tee. No surprise here if you follow me on Instagram I was 100% on board with this trend as soon as it started…
