• The Mittens Trend 2020

    If you haven’t noticed, it is cold and snowy in most places (depending on where you live). This can only mean one thing, it is wintertime! Since I live in the Midwest, I like to think I have a special skill in noticing cute and super functional winter apparel. Therefore, I submit to you the trendiest winter accessory: mittens. This is a trendy item I have picked up on over the winter of 2019-2020, however, I fully expect to see it continue for the next several years. Why?

  • A Classic Black Turtleneck

    Is there anything more chic than a black turtle neck? There is a reason this seemingly simple piece of clothing remains within the ever-changing fashion industry as one that everyone finds attractive. Thanks to the incredible Audrey Hepburn we now consider a black turtleneck a closet essential! Over the years, the color black has proven itself to be the only color in fashion that will never truly go out of style. Yes, you may have the color of the year be a peach or emerald, but if you are wearing an all black ensemble you are immediately seen as someone who is “in the know” so to speak. That is…
