The top trends for Fall 2018 are something to get excited about! First of all, because they are all my favourite styles and secondly because most of us  have so many pieces ALREADY in our closets. Let's be honest, trends continue to cycle and if you keep items just lo...

Let's talk about fur vests! Why? Because they are cozy, comfy and totally fabulous! I was very hesitant before I purchased my first vest.  I looked through a ton of different styles. At the risk of looking like Donna stepping off the set of That 70's Show, I decided to...
