Happy monday!

I am back to blogging, yay!  I took a couple of weeks off to work on the launch party (pictures up wednesday), meet with web designers for the new site and basically recharge my battery from all the madness that has been going on.  I will officially be blogging every monday, wednesday and friday from here on out!

Since today was 18* I wanted to do a post on wearing your maxi dresses and skirts through the winter. I am a firm believer in a year round wardrobe- as long as you shop smart and are willing to step outside of the box a bit- it is simple to seamlessly wear most pieces 365.

I layered a longer cashmere turtle neck over a spaghetti strap maxi dress in this combo.  You could do a belted cardigan, tee with a leather jacket, etc- the combinations are endless.  I chose a rustic leather ankle bootie to both winterize the look and keep consistent with the boho feel of the dress.  Tall boots would have looked frumpy and disconnected from the outfit.

The hobo bag balances out the oversized sweater and once again, has that great natural boho feel.  I put on a long earring to draw the eye upwards and stacked on some earthy bracelets.  Voila- summer maxi turns winter cozy.  Not to mention this is legit the most comfortable outfit ever.

I will continue doing 'how to wear' every monday so please submit any questions you want answered on the blog to: trendEDITORcolumbus@gmail.com

How to: Carpe the _ _ _ _ Out of This Diem

Happy monday! Time to carpe the fu*k of out this diem!  Don't be offended by this bag- be inspired.  When I found this little gem I started to think of all the looks and negative comments that could come my way- I get it, it's a tad aggressive.

But then I thought to myself 'why would someone be offended by a message that is empowering and inspiring?'   You should be SO excited to seize the day that the word just slips out! 

So instead of giving style advice today, I wanted to pass on a message that allows me to get up every morning and work.  A message that drives me to practice my passion and hopefully influence others.  A message that has helped me get up eight times from the seven times i've fallen. A message that is so bad a**, you cant help but carpe that diem and be proud of the work you do every day before your head hits the pillow.  

I apologize for my sailor mouth, it is what it is. (sorry mom)

Cheers trend lovers,

OOTW: Metallic & Fur

Happy humpday! As it get colder my mind and eyes immediately gravitate towards anything cuddly and warm.  I bought this FABULOUS fur vest at THREAD a couple months back and have been rocking it in so many different ways.  It looks amazing with jeans and booties (pictured) and also over a LBD with a pump.  It is the perfect "here I am"accessory for this season.

I kept it casual with a distressed denim and silk blouse and stayed in that neutral cream color family. I pulled my hair up in a messy top knot so you could see the amazing detail of the fur collar on this bad boy.  

The boots you ask?  HUMANOID.  Again, from THREAD.  These booties literally made me drool at first sight.  They have a tinge of a metallic coating and zip up on both sides.  I pre-ordered them online while driving to an appointment- priorities people!

And as for the beautiful shih-tzus- they refused to get out of the picture so naturally I embraced it.  WAY too precious to crop out and they love to pose.  

Enjoy this outfit and go get yourself a fur vest- faux or real! 

Cheers trend lovers,

Friday Finds: THAT outfit

Shih tzu sweater // Track pant // Suede booties // Balenciaga studded bag // Barbour jacket // pendant necklace // jewel studs

Need I say anything about this fridays finds?  Head to toe obsessed with this outfit and every little detail about it.  When I stubbled upon this sweater I almost cried tears of joy- have you ever seen anything more glorious?  Shih-tzu obsession has gone to a new level.

Dying over the mix of jewel tons and textures in this look.  Have a happy and fashionable weekend!

Cheers trend lovers,
