Fashion Adulting: Closet Curation, Spend or Save

When you’re young, you buy what appeals to you, what you think will make you stand out and seem different- paying little attention to fit, silhouette, print and color, or whether or not the garment wears you.  As you mature and grow into your style, you learn what to splurge and save on, what flatters…

DIY TieDye Pastel Hair

I call it TieDye Hair; I was inspired by Guy Tang- it’s pink and lavender using Ion Color Brilliance Brights in Rose and Lavender. I applied it in a messy way from the crown down, so that it wouldn’t cover all the hair- it ended up looking like chunky streaks. I do feel really comfortable with Semi-Perminant…

Agi & Sam London Fashion Week Men’s Fall/Winter 2016 FW16 LFW

Athletic inspired, color blocking, long sleeves, and unique details characterized the Agi & Sam London Fashion Week Men’s Fall/Winter 2016 collection. It was a modern collection, and while I love the layering of some of the looks, there is a bulkiness to the silhouette of the oversized garments, which is intentional but not a good look….
