MSP FW.

Minneapolis-St. Paul Fashion Week is upon us. I'm scrambling to get a week full of lust-worthy outfits together w/o going out & purchasing something. #godspeed. I'll be covering a bunch of shows throughout the week, so be on the lookout for MSPFW posts. xx.

Love to me is: hand-crafted Valentine cards, an impromptu lunch (shopping) date with my favorite Mill City Man, celebrating birthdays (Happy bday Arrow!), touring the North Loop as if it were my first time - with good company + a drink in hand at all times, making new friends (and dance partners) and doing it all in the most perfect Valentine's Day attire.

Happy Valentine's Day, y'all! xx

Fragile Things.

It hadn't occurred to me until just now that I never bothered to document what I wore for NYE - so here it is. I didn't partake in the stereotypical sequins & opted for something a little more...um, leggy. A Moschino belt goes a long way. And since we're on the topic of the New Year, I didn't come up with any resolutions except that I decided this would be the year of bravery. xo

"It occurs to me that the peculiarity of most things we think of as fragile is how tough they truly are. Hearts may break, but hearts are the toughest of muscles, able to pump for a lifetime, seventy times a minute, and scarcely falter along the way. Even dreams, the most delicate and intangible of things, can prove remarkable difficult to kill." -Neil Gaiman

For good.
