“The health and well-being of our associates and customers remain our top priority and the driving force behind our strategy for reopening. Saks has the opportunity to set the standard for offering a safe, easy and personalized shopping experience once stores reopen,” said Marc Metrick, President, Saks Fifth Avenue. “We will continue to evaluate store openings based on our own analyses, which take into account the expertise of local government and health officials, economics, and community sentiment.

David Yurman Renaissance Collection at Saks Fifth Avenue Birmingham
Saks Fifth Avenue is known for hosting a jewelry showcase at the Birmingham location. The store featured David Yurman’s Renaissance Collection.
The designer is known for his timeless bracelets but this particular collection showcased mixed metals, colored stones, and interchangeable accents.
One of the associates at Saks explained the history behind David Yurman’s designs and inspiration. She stated that certain pieces from his collection are inspiration from his wife and their travels. I found that to be fascinating due to the detailing in those particular pieces.
David Yurman’s jewelry collection offers a variety of pieces that can be incorporated in any wardrobe!

Weekend Self-Care Activity and Plaid Peplum Top #OOTD or #WIW
The weekends can become pretty hectic. Running errands, cleaning your room, and paying bills. Whew! The word that I’m searching for is called, “adulting.”
At no matter what age, adulting can be super exhausting. But, the reality is that we strive to be successful versions of ourselves. Nobody wants to be the girl who forgot to schedule an oil change.
Despite the spirit of busyness and reality of having limited hours in the day, self-care is a must-do! While cheering for others, we can’t forget to cheer for ourselves.
Simple steps towards practicing self-care involve reading a book, getting a massage, or taking a walk. My favorite self-care activity during the week is listening to music. Another activity that’s on the top of my list is journaling. As a fellow creative, I enjoy organizing my thoughts and keeping lists of what’s important to me. My journals range from words to pictures or keepsakes.
Self-care doesn’t always have to involve elaborate practices or high-ticketed experiences. Some of the most relaxing opportunities involve being present in the moment. How do you practice self-care in your life?
In the photo below, I was attending The Birmingham Home and Garden Show to support my college sister-friend who was a speaker during the event. In the spirit of self-care, I threw on my peplum blouse and captured a meaningful break to enjoy the show!

Looking Your Best: Quality Pieces and Seasonal Colors
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!

Sandy Liang FW17 Lookbook: Soft and Subversive Designs
Sandy Liang is a designer based in the Lower East Side of New York City. She started her eponymous brand with her Fall Winter 2014 collection shortly after graduating from Parsons School of Design.
Her first collection was based on her love of outerwear and Chinatown grandmas and has since grown to sell to over forty stockists internationally. Sandy draws inspiration from her personal life and is constantly self-referencing throughout her work, whether it be a childhood memory in Bayside, Queens, the coveted Gap Jeans she wore as a kid, or a movie that left an impression on her. Her woman is not a fictional woman who exists as an aspiration, but real women who she’ll see taking the subway or go grocery shopping at Whole Foods.
There is an ever present sense of humor and duality present throughout the collections – soft, yet subversive. She is playful in the way she uses materials – stainless steel nipple rings adorning a silk dress, a mink coat but with dropped shoulders and elbow patches. She makes sure not to take fashion too seriously as she feels it is there to make all of our lives a little more enjoyable and doesn’t know if it needs to be anything more than that.
STOCKISTS
Sandy Liang is sold at retailers worldwide including Net-A-Porter, Saks Fifth Avenue, ShopBop, FWRD, Forty Five Ten, Hirshleifers, Kirna Zabete, Need Supply, Shop Super Street, Totokaelo, Asthik (Ukraine), Beams (Japan), Beymen (Turkey), Boon the Shop (S Korea), Browns (GB), Filly’s Stable (Australia), Harvey Nichols (UK), Icon (Belgium), IT (HK), Lane Crawford (HK), Lane Crawford (CN), My Boon (S Korea), Plum (Lebanon), Rare Market (S Korea), Reel Shanghai (CN), Ron Herman (Japan), Stylebop (Germany), The Modern Society (GB), Tuchuzy (Australia) and more
