My Must-Have Makeup Faves

I love the idea of makeup--transformation, enhancement, etc.--but am usually pretty lazy about actually using it. My daily routine is pretty simple: I make sure my skin looks good, my lashes are curled, and hurriedly swipe on a lip stain as I’m rushing out the door. Sometimes I’ll do a red lip or a basic cat eye, but these are the products I manage to use regularly: 1 > YSL Touch Eclat in 6.5 | I

Style // Beret Baby

Even though they weren't of the highly coveted raspberry variety (the kind you find in a secondhand store), berets made a surprising show on the Fall-Winter runways: Fay, Paul & Joe, Gucci, Luisa Beccaria and Gucci.

How To // Planning for Magazine Editorial Coverage

A few weeks ago, I was in a shop pulling wardrobe for a series of photo shoots, and the store owner asked me: “Is this for December?” I was floored. “Oh no, that’s been finished.

Going Retro

I love a good throwback as much as the next 'Gram-er, so when my friend asked me to model some vintage athletic gear, I was all in! If O-town tour tees and old school Starter jackets make you nostalgic too, stop by the Retro Jones 513 booth at the City Flea Holiday Market this Saturday from 5-10pm, and stay for the Light Up OTR festivities. See you there!

Shop Around // Victor Athletics

What do you do when you’ve founded a successful denim line and want to create something to help American factories while producing affordably priced sustainable fashion? You launch a line of athletic wear, that’s what. The husband and wife duo behind Cincinnati-based Noble Denim is jumping headfirst into the athleisure market with Victor Athletics, a line of comfy sweatshirts, sweatpants, and tees made with organic cotton and manufactured in Tennessee. Following an extremely successful Kickstarter campaign,

Watch the #ThroneProject

You ever see Pinterest photos of people randomly posing on vintage furniture in the middle of a lavender field/abandoned farmhouse/city street and think “Why?” or “Who are these people?” Well, I’ll be one of those people. That’s thanks to the #ThroneProject, a collaboration of creative minds and beautiful places organized by Queen City Vignette, a Cincinnati event rental and design company with a vintage twist. They’ve brought together a group of Cincinnati style bloggers (including the babes from Thread
