Tomboy femme is the effortlessly cool fashion aesthetic that proves you don't have to choose between masculine and feminine style. Fashion has always been about playing with contrasts, and one of my favorite style directions right now is tomboy femme. It's relaxed, a little borrowed-from-the-boys, and undeniably chic.

How and Why I Became a Personal Stylist
There’s a version of my story that looks simple on the surface: I loved fashion, so I became a stylist. But the truth is, it didn’t start that clean or that certain. It started much more quietly—with frustration, curiosity, and the realization that getting dressed was harder for most women than it should be. I didn’t become a personal stylist because I thought it would be trendy or glamorous. I became one because I kept seeing the same thing over and over again: incredibly ca

Why Fit Matters More Than Trends (And Always Will)
Trends come and go faster than ever now. One season it’s oversized everything, the next it’s fitted silhouettes again. One year it’s sneakers with everything, the next it’s ballet flats and pointed heels. If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly trying to “keep up” but still don’t love how your outfits look, you’re not alone. The issue usually isn’t that you’re not buying the right trends. It’s that trends were never meant to be the foundation of great style in the first pl

Confessions of a Semi-Shopaholic
An honest love letter to shopping, a full closet, and the eternal question: “But where would I wear it?” Let's get one thing straight: I love fashion. I love discovering a brand I've never heard of, finding the perfect pair of shoes, stumbling upon a designer-looking bag for less, and convincing myself that a new jacket is, in fact, a wardrobe essential.

Fall Fashion Mistakes I See All the Time — And What to Do Instead
Fall is one of the easiest seasons to get dressed for — but it’s also one of the easiest seasons to over-shop for.

Where I Save vs. Where I Splurge on Fashion
You don't have to spend a fortune to look expensive. You just have to know where your money is actually worth spending. One of the biggest misconceptions about building a stylish wardrobe is that you need to buy expensive everything. You don't. In fact, some of my favorite wardrobe pieces are affordable finds. I love finding a great belt, fun accessory, basic tee or pair of shoes at a lower price point. But there are also certain pieces where I think spending a little more ca
