Shoe Brand That You Need To Know: Nou

Image
Fashion friends, happy Tuesday! I hope you had a fantastic weekend and are enjoying a great start to your week. My mother should’ve never allowed me to watch Old Hollywood movies, because the fashion was absolutely stunning. I saw Addison Rae wearing a pair of vintage-looking shoes on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and fell in love with them. After an intense search to find the brand, Nou and I just had to share it, because I simply couldn’t keep it to myself. For the past decade, Nou has been Alexia Ioannou’s creative companion. What started as a jewelry line grew into a cult-favorite vintage studio by 2021. Now, it lives on as her own footwear label, inspired by a lifelong love of shoes and the belief that beauty lies in the details, in the stories objects hold, and in the way an incredible pair of shoes can make you feel. The same intuition that once drew her to vintage now guides my design approach. From her Los Angeles studio to the skilled hands of artisans in Portugal, each ...

On My Beauty Wishlist: Seen.

Image
Hello, beauty lovers! Wishing you a wonderful Thursday, a smooth and enjoyable work week, and plenty of excitement for the weekend ahead. I stick with a shampoo and conditioner I love until I get tired of it. But I recently found out that many of them have synthetic fragrances, which I can’t use anymore because of my eczema. I just had to share about the brand Seen, which I came across on the Ulta website. They’ve even earned the National Eczema Association’s seal of approval, so you might want to give these products a try yourself. Harvard-trained dermatologist Dr. Iris Rubin founded Seen, recognizing that good hair care is an important part of healthy skin. With patented, award-winning formulas proven to be non-comedogenic and gentle on sensitive skin, Seen helps keep both skin and hair in great shape. After experiencing breakouts linked to her hair care products, Dr. Rubin set out to create a way to get beautiful hair without sacrificing skin health. It took over four years and coun...

On My Fashion Wishlist: Sister Homage Spring Earrings.

Image
 Hello again, fellow fashion lovers, on this Tuesday. I hope you're all doing well and had a wonderful week; I've missed talking to you all and can't wait to get back to you. I'm not sure why Sister Homage isn't more well-known, because their jewelry is stunning. I was browsing the website when I came across the Spring Earrings, which are so simple and would look great with my outfit. I felt compelled to tell you about them today because I'm a close friend.  In his book To Bless the Space Between Us, John O'Donohue writes about spring: "Within the grip of winter, it is almost impossible to imagine the spring. Then, imperceptibly, somewhere one bud opens and the symphony of renewal is no longer reversible. These earrings contain a treasure of color, with six alternating natural amethyst and aquamarine stones, and three strands reminding us of the spring. These stud earrings, priced at $239.00, feature a standard butterfly back and are only available in v...

I am incredibly appreciative of the opportunity to be here with you and discuss my favorite topic, fashion.  I prefer wearing dresses in the spring and summer because they allow me to be comfortable in the heat.

  Beauty lovers, I hope that all of you are doing well on this Thursday. I'm so grateful to be here with all you and I hope that your weekend is everything you want it to be.  In my opinion, Alter Ego doesn’t get nearly enough recognition in the beauty industry. I adore all of their palettes, and the packaging is always top-notch. While scrolling through Instagram, I saw a makeup artist using the Misthaven Eyeshadow Palette, and I fell in love with its color story. So, being the great friend that I am, I had to share this with you all. Take a mystical trip with Misthaven, where the enchanting charm of a foggy forest comes alive in 18 stunning eyeshadows.

On My Fashion Wishlist: Rowen Rose Dalmation Dress.

Image
I hope this Wednesday is going well for all of you fashion enthusiasts. Being able to be here with all of you again makes me very happy. While browsing the Farfetch website, I came across the Dalmation Dress from Rowen Rose, a brand I had never heard of before. I enjoy learning about new fashion designers and brands so I can share them with you wonderful people. I also felt that having it in my own closet would be fantastic. Emma Rowen Rose, a Parisian born and raised in a Polish and Spanish family, founded the luxury fashion brand Rowe Rose in September 2018. Contrasts and ambivalence are therefore key components of the brand's success. It defies stereotypes to create a distinctive style that is both elegant and modern, bold and traditional, feminine and masculine. Additionally, the brand creates a unique luxury product with a new ethical and sustainable production that is entirely made in Italy by fusing historical influences, methods, and aesthetics with a forward-thinking appro...
