Can you believe we have finally made it? We are living in a country where Trump isn’t our President. What a relief. The inauguration a few days ago was a beautiful event, not only because it was literally beautiful, but it meant was to be beautiful too. It was like the restart of us living …
Now I understand, it’s not a perfect world. Nobody is perfect. We can’t do everything right every second of every day. And so with that I understand that we can’t always be sustainable.

We all know at this point I love Harry Styles, not only because of his amazingly good looks, but also because he is such an inspiration. He’s donated his hair to a good cause, he donated his profits from his first tour, he supports both LGBTQ+ and Black Lives Matter, to name a few causes. …
Style to Smile This ever happen to you? You wake up in the morning, you’re cranky, not sure why, maybe you didn’t get enough sleep, maybe you slept on your pillow the wrong way but regardless, you’re immediately in a bad mood. You are getting ready to go to school, work or do whatever you …

Is Being “On Trend”, Out of Style? If you follow me at all, you know I like trends that are getting a lot of “hate”. Why? Because if people hate them, they won’t follow them and then it becomes a statement for those who do like that particular style. I don’t think anyone should stand …
So guys, in like the least dramatic way possible, I could cry over House of Sunny’s latest line drop. May I please meet the designer that works with House of Sunny, treat them to a nice candlelit dinner, maybe a walk along the beach, and then marry them. I need this creative genius in my …

If you haven’t heard yet, and if you haven’t I am worried for you, but Sex and the City is making a comeback. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?? There are so many questions that need to be asked. How are they going to do the show without Samantha? What is going to happen with Carrie and …

Confessions of a Former Fast Fashion Shopper. Admitting you have a problem is the first step. I am a bit of a shopaholic. Guilty!
And yes I was super guilty of supporting fast fashion by shopping at places like H&M, Zaful, & Shein, just to name a few of the offenders. It all started when I was young at Justice, remember that store?
