The Mask for all
Who would have thought that wearing a mask before leaving the house would be a thing? So much has happened in the past few months and as our world’s norms keep shifting, one thing is for sure, wearing a mask has become the new normal.
We know that face masks are part of an infection control strategy to eliminate cross-contamination but are you ready to wear a face mask for long hours day in and day out?
The Alex mask is designed for better breathability and is available in adult sizes and kids sizes (5-12 years)
“I love this mask because, not only does it have a layer of filter built-in, it sits away from my nose and mouth allowing for better breathability. And I can finally wear lipstick and not worry about rubbing it off completely!”

Transition Your Wardrobe From Summer To Fall
It's transitioning into fall and it's starting to cool down. You want to change your wardrobe to fit the weather but don't want to spend the money on purchasing a lot of new pieces. Well, we're here to help you. Here are some ideas on how you can transition your summer items into fall-ready outfits.
First is probably the most obvious. LAYERING. Just adding a jacket or coat can take your summer items into the fall. Here are a few examples of how you can style them.
Another idea is pairing a long sleeve shirt or sweater with your skirts. Purchasing a few warm sweaters that can be worn into the cooler seasons could help you out for both fall and winter.
You can also layer long sleeve shirts under your dresses to keep you warm during that summer to fall transition. You'll most likely own one of these so it'll be a simple outfit to put together without any extra cost.
And just like that, you're fall-ready.
Leopard Print - The Trend That Keeps Coming Back
Some people love it, some people hate it. But no matter what, leopard print will keep making a come back. If you are one of those people that love it, then you're in luck. You can find items with this print almost anywhere right now. If you are one of those people that don't love so much, don't worry, they now come in so many different colors and styles, you might just find a piece you'll fall in love with.
Let me introduce you to our darker Leopard print. The color of the spots are more similar to the base. It's a little more discrete and in my opinion, easier to wear if you're not the biggest fan. If you love leopard print, the Mika coat might be a good addition to your closet. It's a statement piece and the star of your outfit. For those a little more hesitant, something like the Heidi skirt may be more of your style.
As for our lighter leopard print, the color of the spots and the base color are very different, making the print stand out more. This might be a more difficult print to try out. If you are a leopard print fan, something like the Tamara dress and Tasha jumpsuit would be perfect. It's bold, and all-out leopard. If you wanted a more slight option, adding a leopard print skirt like the Lucy midi skirt or a shirt like the Arianna blouse to your wardrobe might be a good first step to wearing this print.
Whichever style you prefer, I encourage everyone to give it a shot while it's on-trend!
Why Matching Sets Are Your New Best Friend
If you've had a time that you were stressing over what to wear, it might be because you were missing a matching set. They are effortless to wear yet look so put together. Here is our favorite summer two-piece set of the season: The Alessa Blazer and Virginia shorts. It's a chic look you can throw on without a single thought.
Another benefit to matching sets is that unlike one-pieces such as dresses and jumpsuits, YOU DON'T HAVE TO WEAR THEM TOGETHER. Wearing them with different articles of clothing can turn them into an entirely different outfit. Take a look at the Alessa blazer paired with denim and a plain white tee, talk about casually chic. Nothing says summer better than the Virginia shorts paired with a simple gingham off-shoulder top. Now you have three completely different outfits you can rock during the rest of the hot summer months.
Matching sets truly are best friend material.
