Dying My Hair Platinum Blonde & Vinyl Pants
Jacket Isabel Marant | Topshop Vinyl Pants (and HERE) | Gucci T-Shirt I have always been a proponent of taking risks when it comes to personal style and your wardrobe. Unless a trend just isn’t my style there are very few things I won’t try. I have been wanting to try an all over blonde hair style for as long as I can remember and after my wedding last year (wedding pictures with dark hair requirement met) I knew it was time.

Seeing Red: The Breakout Color from Fall 2017 Fashion Week
Fall 2017 fashion week has wrapped and we have seen so many trends walk the runways but often the real breakout trends that we will all be wearing next fall are revealed on the streets outside the shows.

How to Wear a Mini Dress Like a Grownup
Everyone loves a great brand collaboration so when Tobi, an online retailer I have worn for years reached out I was more than happy to accept. Tobi’s dresses had been my go to summer staples for several years so I was more than happy to oblige. I looked back at photos of those perfect mini dresses from a few years ago and then thought crap, I really don’t dress like that anymore. Yes I still am partial to a flirty dress on a warm summer night but he reality is 95% of my wardrobe can be worn to work these days (granted I do work at a fashion company.) That…

Goodbye Transitional Weather, Hello Winter!
When you step outside in Seattle it certainly doesn’t take a thermometer to inform you that it is indeed almost freezing outside and if you couldn’t tell on the frost on the ground you absolutely need more layers. That is why today I wanted to share my last transitional weather outfit that certainly won’t be seeing light of day again until the weather warms up sometime in March.
