There are several ways to honor the holiday season using fashion, but often times the choices are very limited. I mean, how many ways can you wear red and green? Well, I have a fun new take on a Christmas Eve outfit that works for the holidays, but it can also be just as cute outside of this specific time of year. I decided to wear a red sweater this year to really embrace one of the main colors of this season. To add some contrast I paired the bright red with my timeless black Guess puffer jacket. This jacket is one of my warmest and I have been using…

Celine Spring 2020 for Men
I must admit, I was rather disappointed by the runways we saw for this spring 2020 men’s fashion week. After combing through all of the designer shows and seeing how they all look basically the same, there were only two specific runways that stood out to me enough to actually review.

What was a huge selling point for this button up was the light patterning of embroidered flowers all around it. I really love the mix of sophistication and casual that comes with wearing a knotted button up in the summer. Especially when that button up has some embroidery on it!…
