SYMMETRICAL . COUTURE

Jessica White. Sexy, lingerie model. are the asymmetrical shapes in contrast with the metallic working? Does it make her look off-balance? or is she right on point?

MASCULINE FEMININITY . COUTURE

a girl dressed as a guy? sexy, fashion forward, stylish, chic.

a guy dressed as a girl? not so much.

Ladies have such an advantage when it comes to fashion, we can basically wear anything and make it look fabulous. I remember being 6 years old thinking "I'm so lucky to be a girl! I can wear skirts, and dresses (and skorts) and boys dont!" I was so excited about my many wardrobe options.

CHARITABLE . FASHIONABLE . COUTURE . PART DEUX

These bags, at a lower price point than the first bags I wrote about, serve the same exact purpose. They are handmade and the money you spend on the bag goes right back to helping the women who made them. :)

Saturday

CHARITABLE . FASHIONABLE . COUTURE

The Madera Weekender  is made in Nepal in South Asia. Every piece of these bags are handmade from vintage fabrics, so no two bags are alike!



Sophia Costas is a NY-based designer. Sophia Costas returns part of the company profits to a charity called Azahar located in Cambodia. Azahar is an international organization that promotes cross-cultural communication and non-violent conflict resolution through yoga and the arts.


The price may be a bit steep, but I think it is well worth it! You can't put a price on being gracious, the universe will reward your charitable acts even more graciously.















Wednesday

ACCESSORIES . COUTURE

I'm not big on accessories, I'll admit. I'm more interested in the bigger picture, and not so much the details. BUT I'm infatuated by jewelry by a designer named Venessa Arizaga.  They are so original, and a bit nostalgic - these pieces are like the modern day charm bracelet, with a major fashion update!

These one-of-a-kind necklaces and bracelets by are just the thing to take your outfit from a 10 to an 11! :)

MUST HAVES!!!!! Every girl must posses these simple essentials.  All items are very affordable, and when mixed and matched become creative outfits.


Boyfriend Blazer, can be paired with skinny jeans and pumps for a great casual evening look. EVERY GIRL NEEDS A LBD!!! (Little Black Dress). A trench coat is perfect during those transitional seasons, and The North Face fleece for when it's colder on the weekends. A good quality leather belt, to be used for more than just lashings. White and Gray T's (v-neck, if you so choose). Oh! and every lady needs a pencil skirt!
