From Paris with Love!

It has been an action packed month for me this October! Some of the highlights include being asked to speak at Parsons The New School for Design, the QVC & FFANY Gala to raise money for breast cancer research and my first trip to Paris!

QVC & FFANY – Shoes On Sale Gala to Benefit Breast Cancer Research

This was my first time attending this event and I feel honored to have been able to be a part of raising awareness & money with the QVC team for a great cause. There is nothing more important to me than being able to use my ability to design and create to give back. One of my biggest mottos has always been the “giving back is always in style”.

From Paris with Love!

After the Gala, I headed off to Paris for the first time to launch my collection at QVC France! I must say that after seeing the beauty of Paris & 5 croissants later, I forgot that I was there to work!

 

I spent most of my time people watching and getting so inspired by the style, food and beauty of the architecture. I am newly obsessed with the Parisian style and noticed that there are three key accessories that make up the perfect Parisian ensemble.

  • The wrap or poncho
  • The bag
  • The scarf

Since my friend Beth Terrell is launching this amazing wrap this Friday, 30th of October, I put together some of my favorite Parisian inspired looks for the Fall to share with you!
