Eighties trends have spun right back around, ‘like a record baby right round, right round!’ Front Row for day two of LA Fashion Week’s Autumn/Winter 2019 season, I noticed an overarching theme for womenswear: go ‘80s-shoulder-pads big, or go home. Designer Romy Hourani’s Autumn/Winter 2019 collection may not have had shoulder-pads per say, but she […]

I traded the red carpet for the runway during my LA Fashion Week debut. The entertainment world and the fashion world are more alike than onlookers may expect: designers are just as dedicated to their craft of telling narratives through needle and thread as film directors are through the lens of a camera.

Everyone has their ‘power’ color: a hue that when you wear it, it makes you feel as if you can take on the world fearlessly.

Another 365 days have passed–each one of them filled with a myriad of memories, adventures and you guessed it, chic outfits. 2019 is days away which means it’s that time of the year where I reflect on the exciting experiences I was blessed with this past year: -I spent the final semester of my undergraduate […]

It’s only natural that someone who loves coffee as much as I do would wear an espresso-colored ensemble. Brown is a cheery alternative to black for fall and winter muted mode (fashion in French).
