Well it has been a minute since I have done an OOTD post. Life has been crazy for the past twenty four months as we all know. And in addition to COVID I had quite a bit going on in my life. Life is just so filled with ups and downs and it can challenging to traverse at times. But for the most part we all get through it. Things are finally settling down a bit and I had some free time to pop out east with a friend of mine.

Well here we are in August, the second week of August if you can believe that. Can’t lie, I am looking forward to fall, I am %100 over the heat and humidity, this summer was beyond the pale with the heat. But I guess this was the same across the globe.

Fashion Week is quickly approaching and it seems it is more or less back to where it was in 2019. This was the last time I was in Paris and I found that trends I saw there arrived on American shores about 12-18 months later. In general I feel like Europe is ahead of the trends to a degree, I guess because in the States there are two major cities that are super fashion forward: New York and Los Angles.

Today I am back with another installment of Love Link Express where I share with you some of my favorite finds; be it the internet, social media or word of mouth you will find a treasure trove of useful and fun places to shop and people to discover.

Well folks it has beeb a minute. Things have been crazy for me. Selling a house and moving is no joke. It was quite the ride. I had little to no time to devote to the blog or my YouTube channel. But things are finally settling down. I have been in my new place about a month now, and today is the first day I have had some extra time to be able to sit down and get this video uploaded.

  Today I am sharing with you some Fashion Week street style from both New York…

[/bigletter]Well I could not make it to PFW this season, actually not since 2019. I really miss Paris and hope I can travel there again soon. As many of you know one my favorite things to do when I attend PFW (and NYFW) is interviewing other attendees on what they are wearing and what inspired their looks.

This past season I only attended one show as you know, with everything I have going on I did not have a lot of time to devote to Fashion Week. I am hoping next season things will be a bit back to normal for me. Today I am sharing one of the looks I wore last season, I had forgotten about these photos

This Fashion Week was a quick one for me as in one day. I have a lot going on right now with selling my mom’s house, closing and moving. Between that and a full time job I had no time this season to focus on Fashion Week. No time to prepare, no time to attend shows, and pretty much just super wiped out from all that is going on in my life.
