What do finance, snowboarding and fashion have in common? All are among my favorite things and all have an element of thrill and excitement associated with it.
The thrill of having the wind in my face and freedom on the mountain, the excitement of completing a deal or learning about financial derivatives ;) these are rivaled by the feeling of scoring a fabulous fashion find, a statement piece and exploring the styling possibilities; and then sharing the exhilaration with my best girlfriends.
For me, fashion is a creative outlet that is such a departure from what I do in my everyday life. Not only do I love clothing and accessories, but I appreciate the artistry, history and evolution of fashion. To me, it is an art form, expression of individuality and most importantly a projection of myself to the world and how I want the world to see me.
There is a duality to my style. The weekday look includes many neutrals and is classic, conservative and versatile with a twist, skirt suits or sheath dresses with a statement necklace or bag, a little Katherine Hepburn mixed with a little Audrey Hepburn. The weeknights/weekend look is more avant garde and louder. I love mixing bold colours (hot pink and yellow DO go together!) and wearing sky high heels! One thing that ties my style together is femininity. I have penchant for dresses – a fabulous dress can always make me feel confident.
I see this blog is a way for my best girls to always continue share in our passion and stay connected to each other, no matter where we are and where our lives take us.
