The Fashionista Lab

Remember when I went to Chicago to tape an episode of the Steve Harvey Show? It aired May 30th, and I finally put a recording on YouTube (since Steve Harvey didn’t). The segment is all about how women with larger feet can still find stylish shoes, with a shoe fashion show courtesy of Barefoot Tess. [...]

I love it when, over time, I amass several items of the same color in my closet. I currently have my eye on a blazer at Zara (in turquoise) that I think would go great with this skirt! PS, looking for Academy Awards red carpet coverage? Head over to my Facebook page! But not till [...]

… is wearing a piece by the same designer: Karl Lagerfeld. I’m in love with this jacket. As soon as it went on sale, I snapped it up! And it’s a good thing because it sold out quickly. Unfortunately it ended up being one size (or a half size) too small. Putting it on results [...]

When I purchased this caftan from Discarded to Divine a few weeks ago, I had no idea where I would wear it. I just knew it was meant for me. It turns out the Academy of Art University’s graduation fashion show was the perfect occasion! Also, can you picture me running to catch the bus [...]

Kelly Wearstler hosted the kick-off party for Lucky FABB last Sunday, and I was determined to wear my turban. I initially thought it would need to be a signature piece, the statement-making part of an outfit. But having [...]

One of the most beautiful spots we visited in all of Morocco – which is a visually arresting country – was Les Jardins Majorelles. The vibrant colors were much appreciated in contrast to the dusty orange of the rest of Marrakesh. I was particularly inspired by the yellow flower pot with the purple shrub. Yellow [...]
