A little over a year ago, my life was changed. I obsessed for weeks--should I or shouldn’t I?--before finally making the move. I bought my first pair of Nike x Liberty Sky High Dunks. The compliments haven’t stopped since, and let’s keep it real, we all know that’s what fab shoes are about. Last year, a woman waiting next to me at a restaurant literally demanded to know where I’d bought them and looked them up
I’m always on the lookout for creative inspiration (see: Tumblr Tuesdays), especially when it comes to things like photography, art direction, graphic design, decor, and of course, fashion. Depending on how I plan to use it, I usually gather this inspiration by way of Tumblr, Pinterest, or
I tend to be a little anal about the way I like things organized. This absolutely applies to my workspace--a messy desk is the result of a messy mind (How do I sound like a 50-something teacher from a Beverly Cleary book?)

If you’re free tomorrow evening, you might want to do yourself a favor and check out Red, Pink and Blue, Cincy Chic’s annual party and fashion show on the Purple People Bridge benefiting heart, breast and diabetes health.

I do a fair amount of running around at the new gig, which means the usual rotation of 4-inch stilettos ain't cuttin' it. Enter the solution: flat sandals with ankle straps. Flat for obvious reasons, sandals so my toes can breathe, and ankle straps because they help keep my shoes on my feet (seriously, I have problems with this) and make my legs look slightly less chicken-like. Yeah, I have problems with that too. Sandals from
About a year ago, I sat down and thought about what I really wanted to do with my life career-wise. I’ve worked in marketing pretty much since I graduated, and along the way I discovered a love of graphic design, social media, project management, and content marketing, all on top of my perma-love for fashion and magazines.
