Four Tips for Your V-Day Look

Regardless of how you feel about Valentine’s Day, on this day of love you should really love how you look. When you love how you look, you exude confidence. When you feel confident you can really focus on your partner. I recently watched a show on Goop that talked about how women’s confidence directly correlates to their want/desire to be intimate with their partner. On what many may consider the sexiest holiday of the year, feeling confident with your look couldn’t be more important. Whether you have casual plans at home or a fancy night on the town, I have 4 quick tips to use when picking your look that will make your heart skip a beat!

Galentine's Day

Do you celebrate Galentine’s day? I love any reason to celebrate with your besties especially one where I get to dress up (I’m sure you’re SOOO surprised by that). I can honestly only remember celebrating Galentine’s day twice… The first time I was about 23, living at home with my parents in Upstate NY. A few girlfriends of mine and I went out to dinner to one of my favorite Italian restaurants.

I'm Left Handed

Recently, I reconnected with a client from 5 years ago. When we spoke on the phone, she said:

Even though its been a few years, I still read your blogs. You’re still the upbeat, positive girl I remember. I think your blogs read differently to me because I know you on a more personal level than maybe someone who hasn’t worked with you.

From the Gym --> Gin & Tonics

I would consider the athleisure trend a blessing and a curse. Sure, its also nice that a wide variety of casual styles is considered acceptable and its nice to know there are comfortable options for nearly any function, but at the same time, I think its enforced this fear of being ‘overdressed’. When did that become such a bad thing?! Check out this blog to read more about that…

I blacked out...

This typically happens when I have too much vodka or shots of tequila but that’s actually not what I’m talking about here. What I want to discuss is the amount of black that I find my clients wearing (and honestly, me too). Have we all become afraid of color? When you look in your closet is it a sea of darkness? A black hole? Lets breakdown why we’re blacking out. Which of these situations resonate with you…

a beautiful year

What does beauty mean to you? Can something be irregular and beautiful? I’ve always found beauty in unexpected things, but recently a article in In Style magazine has me pushing my thoughts of beauty just a bit further. While reading this issue, I came across an article featuring a model smiling with less than perfect teeth, even missing her front tooth. I caught myself thinking why did the company choose her to pose for this article? I felt like I had been brainwashed by perfect pearly whites thinking that she shouldn’t be featured with her imperfect pout. Could I not see her beauty? And then I stopped myself. Beautiful doesn’t have to be this standard of symmetry.
