I often joke that I wear the same black pants and black tee for every event, I just change up my accessories. In reality, it’s not far off! And it's okay!
I love a pair of pants that fit properly. So, if I find something that works, I like to stick with it. I figure a pair of black pants are simple enough that I can work the rest of the outfit around them.

There is a theory that the role of women in our society can be reflected in fashion. As women take on a more prominent place in the cultural zeitgeist, for some reason we start behaving - and dressing - more like men.
For as long as I can remember, Iʼve been interested in fashion. Barbies, paper dolls and sketches of the perfect princess dress with puffed sleeves littered my childhood bedroom.
What seems like a lifetime ago, I even had a career in the apparel industry. It was incredibly fun and fast-paced with lots of long hours and, oh, man, did it ever pay terribly! The decision to leave it all behind and start my family was an incredibly easy one.
