Rebecca Minkoff showcased her “See Now, Buy Now” Spring/Summer 2019 Collection at New York Fashion Week, featuring a bright “wash of color” nail by Gina Edwards, Lead Manicurist for KISS Products Inc.
The nails were created using KISS Salon Acrylic Natural Nails in Forbidden, KISS Nail Artist Paints and KISS Salon Secrets Nail Art Starter Kit.
The last few weeks have been extremely busy. From moving into a new subdivision to developing my business structure. Despite the busyness of life, I believe in looking your best. This concept varies from day-to-day.
For example, crazy school mornings call for leggings and a pull-over. While afternoon meetings include a blazer, jeans, and flats. I dress according to the occasion; no heels at the grocery store.
Looking your best doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Simple quality pieces can update any outfit. For example, gold earrings, silk scarves, structured handbag, diamond studs, leather belt, and trench coat can pull together last-minute appearance.
Lately, I’m a huge believer in wearing seasonal colors. Some of us love the classic tone of wearing black but why not try a Lavender t-shirt or Sky Blue earrings? Fashion can be a fun experience when we coordinate and invest the time!
Recently, I’ve added style photos to my social media feed. I wanted to share my personal style, which is categorized as chic and modern.
This leads me to the topic for the blog post. How can someone discover his or her personal style? Essentially it’s about self-awareness and understanding your clothing preferences. The definition of style is, “a distinctive appearance, typically determined by the principles according to which something is designed.”
The first step to discovering your personal style is identifyingastyle icon. Do you prefer the total appearance of Lady Gaga or Michelle Obama? Grab a few magazines and create a stylebook.
The next action is to visit your closet and examine pieces you have worn on numerous occasions. This could be a fedora hat or cardigan sweater. Are those items complimenting your features and body type (circle, triangle, hourglass, rectangle)?

Consider your lifestyle and occupation when curating your wardrobe. A corporate executive should invest in a high quality suit; same concept applies for weekly Pilates sessions.
Accessories are the best assets for discovering your personal style. They allow you to change a look without purchasing new clothing. A classic wristwatch can upgrade an inexpensive blouse.
Ultimately, it’s about feeling great and presenting yourself in a positive manner!

Quick Wardrobe Tips:
Invest in alterations for ill-fitting items
Use the dry-cleaners sparingly – can damage clothing fibers
Spend extra money on work shoes, blazers, jeans, bras, suiting, and outerwear
South Moon Under hosted it’s 10 – year anniversary on Thursday, September 10, 2015 in Harbor East. The event was open to the public; guests had the opportunity to win giftcards, enjoy refreshments and listen to music from a live DJ. There was also a photo booth available to take pictures and play around with cool props!

I attended the event (as media) to have a good time and enjoy the fashion of this hip store. It’s the perfect spot for the girl who has her own style. South Moon Under carries the latest brands such as Free People, Rebecca Minkoff, 7 for All Mankind, and Abbeline (to name a few.) There’s something for everyone from home decor, jewelry, and accessories. One can mix and match items to pull off a hot look; for example a faux leather baby doll dress paired with booties. I’m looking forward to making South Moon Under my staple store for unique, fashionable pieces.
Below are photos that provide inspiration for Fall 2013, when we consider building our wardrobe. Based upon my previous post, “Fall 2013 Beauty Trends and Accessories” I like to stay abreast of what’s current and new as it relates to fashion, beauty, and style.
My motivation behind this post series (or more so incorporating a trends element to this blog) steams from my family and friends asking what’s popular for the upcoming season. The people in my life acknowledge that this is my passion and therefore come to me for wardrobe advice.
Therefore, this particular write – up centers around designer trends (for the fall) that have graced the runway last Spring. I decided to compile a few looks and hopefully they will help “spruce” up a few items you already own. And don’t forget, it’s always great to find inspiration but learn to make every look your own!
