(image sources top: dolce & gabbana, mcq by alexander mcqueen/bottom: miranda kerr, eugenie niarchos, selena gomez) I think one of the fresher feeling trends for fall is the awesomeness that is baroque. Every September fashion magazine was sporting gilted goodness and I was tooootally drooling over this look. I guess I just think it’s pretty fabulous to walk around looking like a Fabregé Egg :D. I’ve been keeping my eye out on ethical option for this trend for all of… View Post

Fall Into Good Habits-My First Cleanse!: Kaeng Raeng Cleanse Review

/ / 3 Comments
I’ve always been a bit wary of cleanses. I do like the idea of being really thoughtful about what’s going in your body and kind of cleansing your system, however I’ve heard stories of just straight misery on cleanses and I felt like I don’t have the time to be miserable! But then along came an email from the people at Kaeng Raeng. A few things appealed to me about this cleanse. Kaeng Raeng is vegan, all natural, made in… View Post

Consciously Trending-Colorful Scarf

(photo source: harper’s bazaar here) I saw this little vignette in Harper’s Bazaar this past September and immediately ripped it out, for you my friends!

There are tons of ethical options for this trend that are friendly to your wallet as well :). Here are my picks! If you’re feeling… View Post

What I Wore-Buh Bye Summer

/ / 2 Comments
Eep! It has actually felt like summer’s last days for about 2 weeks here in NY. While the summer brings sweltering heat I still miss it when it leaves. If you live in this beautiful city you know that NY has very different personalities with the seasons and summer’s personality to me is definitely relaxed like the city is taking a deep exhale. It’s just too hot to walk super fast, the city empties out on the weekends and all… View Post
