I have to admit that my closet is a mix of both bigger name brands and independents/up-and-coming lines. I’d prefer if I’d had more of the latter, but access is often an issue. Even the up-and-coming lines that make it to FAT or Toronto Fashion Week are already at least somewhat known, especially to those […]

Petite Fashion Challenge #15, courtesy of Long Live Classy, asked readers to recreate an outfit from Pinterest a closely as possible. I have to admit that this was a hard one. First I had to find a pin that I liked AND it had to work with what I had in my closet! And because […]
