• 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?

  • Tom Ford Spring/Summer 2019 for Men

    The Tom Ford Spring/Summer 2019 New York Fashion Week runway show was one that will be very memorable for many reasons, and one of those being the men’s styles we saw. The mix of designs and materials that we saw on the women’s fashion were a little different from what saw on the men. Photos by Vogue Where the ladies’ designs were more 1920’s inspired, the men’s seemed to be more aligned with the 1970’s.
