Fashion

If there was only one item I could bring with me to fashion week, I think it would be one of my best motorcycle jackets. I am obsessed with leather jackets, and specifically motorcycle jackets because they are so versatile! You can literally wear them with anything.

The late 90s, prepping for the prom, was the last I had fake nails. That was the first and that last time — until last week. Sure, I’ve gotten many a manicure over the years, but adding extensions or fake nails was not something I thought I’d like. Then last week, I went in for a regular gel manicure, but my nails were super short.

Last weekend, I was at the mall with one of my dear friends. She was shopping for an upcoming shoot for her new website and asked me to help style her. We had a great time and I even found a few things for myself for Fashion Week.

I’ve decided to take more fashion risks this year. Since having kids, I’ve realized I’ve been in quite a rut. Although I’ve always taken pride in looking my best, for the last couple years, I’ve been rocking basically the same style. I wear the same jewelry, never venturing into new territory, until I found these gold statement earrings.

What are you wearing for Valentine’s day? I recently found this gorgeous red dress for under $40 and I think it is a perfect red Valentine’s Day dress. (I’ve linked to a similar style below. I found mine just a couple weeks ago at H&M, but I can’t find it online!) I’ve talked about special occasion dresses in the past. Generally, I’m not a fan of buying things that you’d only wear once. It’s just not practical. But every now and then, I’m down.

Lately, I happen upon fashion trends rather than actually know about them when they first happen. I’ve always been a huge fan of lace (see here, here, and here). But lately, I’ve been really into the lace bell sleeve top trend. I didn’t even realize how much I liked it until I came home with this top, which looked very similar to this top I also owned. (I’ve got a bit of a problem with buy duplicates too).

I’m not sure about you, but every New Years, I love to get a new dress. There are not that many special occasions during the year where I feel the necessity to buy something new. Finding New Year’s Eve dresses each year is one of the few times when I do.

Are you heading to any holiday parties this year? If you’re planning a special night out to celebrate the holidays or New Years, you should try this berry colored holiday makeup look.
