Just an exciting announcement. This summer I’ll be taking classes in New York City for fashion journalism and magazine design. I’m beyond excited, and I’m already brainstorming ideas. Here’s a mock up of a cover that I did. I’m looking forward to absorbing the whole city’s atmosphere and I’ll have three weeks to do so. And I will definitely be uploading a lot of posts about my travels and outfits. I’ll also grab something special for you guys to put in a giveaway, because I love you…

Emerald is the new tangerine, according to Pantone Universe. Emerald has been selected as the color of the year by the Pantone color empire. And that’s a great thing for me because that means an emerald collection of makeup at Sephora, and a fresh crop of new emerald fashion. You see, when I was a little girl my mom ALWAYS said that emerald was the color for red heads, so it suits me perfectly. 

One of my favorite cosmetic brands MAC has just come out with a makeup line inspired by the old Archie comics and more specifically, the two girls fighting for his heart, Betty and Veronica. Betty, the good-girl-next-door always looks sweet and fresh, while Veronica, the rich, mean girl with a heart, is always fashionable and fierce. The brand created a different line up of products inspired by each girl: Betty’s included light, pretty colors, while Veronica’s are deeper and more seductive. Personally, I’m in love with the Archie comics so I’m definitely obsessed…

Alice & Olivia’s Fall collection shown at New York Fashion Week was fantastic. It was as if by looking at the presentation you were immediately sent to a magical and fantastical land. The details in the collection were very, it seemed, baroque inspired. The whole presentation looked regal. Not to mention the amazing accessories.  I’m in love with the zebra bag, it reminds me of my childhood because I had a cute little beaded coin purse in the shape of a panda bear. The designers really hit it out of the park this year with their playful, youthful pieces. I would buy this entire collection if I could. So, what do you guys think?
