During fashion month, we talk about three things — 1. the collections (because isn’t that what’s it’s all about?) 2. street style (what happens outside the shows has now become just as important as what happens on the runway, whether we like it or not) and 3. celebrity sightings…but mostly just Kim K’s new platinum hair (Jared too!) The beauty scene doesn’t get as much attention, so today I thought we’d change all that.
Fashion can be hard to keep up with sometimes, especially when it comes to footwear. Do I go hidden platform or exposed platform? Or no platform at all with a single sole pump? Should I even wear heels? Aren’t sneakers and Birkenstocks happening right now? WHAT SHOULD I BE WEARING ON MY FEET? Well, let’s just say if you feel like Skee-Lo and you wish you were a little bit taller (and perhaps even a baller) you’re in luck!
In Chicago, we’re quite practical in the way we dress…considering we’re freezing our asses off a majority of the year. Our uniform often consists of puffer coats, typically not my jam, but there’s someone out there who may have just changed my mind about them…
There’s two types of people in this world — those who need glasses and hate it and those who pretend they need glasses to make a fashion statement. I’ve never understood the second one (as I fall into the first category), but after the Fall ’15 shows, I guess it makes a little more sense…
I knew the time would eventually come…the time when I officially feel like an adult, although I did absolutely nothing myself to make the leap. It’s actually those I surround myself with, practically forcing me into adulthood…thanks to new pieces of jewelry (engagement rings) and new humans (babies). I give my congratulations to those who just accomplished those major milestones, as well as a congrats to myself for being an adult. Yay!
