Who Is Your Fashion Icon?

Good morning dolls! I am so sorry FB hasn't posted in a while. I have had several photo-shoots I had to style over the past few weeks! I have been extremely busy. But all for the good of the fashion world! Anyway, I am back and ready to speak some more fashion truth into your lives!

So here is the big question, Who is your fashion icon?


Okay so one of my favorite times of the year has emerged.. (insert drum roll).....ahh yes New York FASHION Week! Sadly FB did not get to attend this year but I did watch the live stream from all social media devices. It's okay judge me. Speaking for all of my fashion addicts out there, you understand that you do whatever it takes to get your daily fashion fix. I must say the fashions were completely out of this world! I wish I could take the time to write about all of my favorites but FB is on the run to another shoot. So this leads to my question....

Who is your fashion icon? Well I know who mine is! Without question my Fashion icon and inspiration is renowned fashion stylist, mother, and designer Rachel Zoe! I not only admire her dedication as a business women but the way she continues to make time for her GORG family. She makes it look so effortless. If you ask me, she is pretty much super woman of the fashion world! Zoe's Spring/Summer 2014 collection had my heart racing! I had a total Zoe fashion freak-out! I could not wait to share some of my favorite designs from her NYFW show. I love the way she combines a vintage 60's look with a rocker/chic edge to create a totally modern look. I am in awe of her talent and the way she creates the most beautiful works of art in the studio and on the runway. Oh and we also share the same love for hats! The perfect accessory. As Rachel would say, "This is so Maj." What can I say? I'm ZOE a fan!

Well Rach what can I say? You've done it again. Thank you for sharing your creativity and love for fashion. It inspires me to never stop pursuing my dreams. You are totally fabulous!

Dolls, I hope this has you thinking about who your fashion icon is! I would love to hear who inspires you. Who knows I may write about one of your favorites in the next post. Have a fashion filled day my lovelies. We'll chat soon. Much love.

Leather, lace, fur ohhh grrr.

Trends on trends

Hello dolls! I hope everyone's week has been great so far. I have been thinking for the past few weeks on what I would like to write about. I know that many of you look to trends to guide your everyday wardrobe. So I figured I would talk about some of my favorite trends that are taking the fashion world by storm. For those of you who are completely lost when it comes to fashion trends, I want to give you an idea of how you can take these trends and apply them to your everyday wardrobe. After reading this you will feel confident in knowing how you can complement your style with these different trends. So grab yourself a cup of coffee and snuggle up with your favorite blanket because you are about to go through trend bootcamp. Leather, lace, fur, ohh grrr...

I would love to give a big shout out to my model for today, Angela Culpepper. She is an active contestant for the Miss America organization. I styled her in  about twenty different looks and she was such a trooper. She made a beautiful model and I had an absolute blast working with her. We intended to shoot outside today but the Polar Vortex got the best of us! So we had to make due within the confines of my apartment/studio. My photography may not be the snazziest but I can tell you to let the outfits speak for themselves....


Leather & Lace

FB is totally obsessed with the leather & lace combo. Leather creates an edgy look but the lace adds a touch of romance to your outfit. Leather and lace work together to create a totally modern look. Combine dainty tops, sleek dresses, and bold accessories to create a sexy edge-romantic contrast.
