    Milan Fashion Week: Backstage with Designer Fatima Val

    We had such a great opportunity to work backstage and the Fatima Val fashion show.  When we arrived they were setting the runway and the visual display to set the mood. I loved watching how it all came together! Because I studied visuals, that was so amazing to see. Not only did we get to see the set come together, we got to see the models come together as well. We were each assigned a model and we were responsible for styling their three outfits that were being showcased on the runway. I am not going to lie, it was intense, but that’s what made it fun! We assisted this…

    Hello Corso Como

    Ciao! Bonjourno! Heeeello! It was quite the day yesterday, but I must say I love EVERYONE at my school! My prayers were answered and I have met people from all over the world that I will never forget. NAPAL. ARGENTINA. RUSSIA. KUWAIT. POLAND. GREECE. I mean really?! HOW AMAZING?! We all have a blast with each other. We love being students/tourist by day, but then we love to pretend to be “locals” by night. Yesterday we didn’t rest. We were on foot all day long. Yes, my feet are killing me. No, I wouldn’t change this experience for the world! We got to see and attend some fun and interesting things…

    Milan Fashion Week: Dirk Bikkemberg Sport Couture Event and Armani/Prive Club

    Next stop on my Fashion Week check list…Dirk Bikkemberg’s Event!  For all of you who don’t know, Dirk Bikkemberg is Couture Sport clothing. Thank you for the hook ups Milan Fashion Campus! I think the best part about this whole experience is networking with people from all over the world! We did get to meet some awesome athletes! You would think since we were at a sports couture event, that some athletes would show up right? Some of the women’s Inter Milano Football (soccer team) came AND Ricky Alvarez from the Inter Milano Football (soccer) Team!! Too bad he has a girlfriend right? 😉 xoxo, P

    Pizza and Cobble Stone and New friends. Oh my!

    Today was even better then yesterday! I LOVE everyone I have met at Milan Fashion Campus! We all went out for lunch today and I thought it’d be a good time to order a “slice” of pizza…MAMMA MIA it was huge! Even better..it was shaped like a heart! We wandered around the cobble stone roads to the location where the GUCCI fashion show will be held (tomorrow!!) I think I might have met my husband there today. Oooo la la. 😉 We then finished our studies and our instructor hands us a lovely invite to my first real fashion show!! You MUST come visit Paige Arminta tomorrow! I will have pictures from Milan…

    Form Fitting Polkas

    You’ll rarely see form fitting articles of clothing on my bod, BUT when I saw this midi tank dress it was a must have! I tried it on and definitely had to tell myself…THINK SKINNY. 🙂 I just couldn’t wait to see what I could pair it with. I had to wear it the first chance I got, and that first chance was to church! That means I had to class it up just a little bit. So, I put a silk button up underneath, threw on some tights and wedges, and was looking church worthy! I cant wait to wear this dress in the summer. I am thinking i’m…

    “Woolin” in Leather

    If you can’t tell from the photos…Oh baby it’s cold outside! It sure is gorgeous tho! If you want to see spectacular scenery, come to Utah! Today’s look will keep you a little warm on this chilly day like today. A wool sweater is the way to go if you are wanting to keep toasty warm! A gorgeous and amazing blogger, Barefoot Blonde, paired some fun sparkly shorts with leggings and I fell in love!  The “shorts over tights” trend is going around, so I thought I would give it a try. I paired my faux leather shorts with leggings, however, I think it would be pleasing to pair them with…

    Blinded by Color

    Woaaaah, hello bright colors! If you aren’t awake you will be once you scroll down. 🙂 Today’s post is super bright and fun! You can still wear those radiant colors in the winter time ladies and gents. I feel like this jacket is so versatile. You can pair it with some bright jeans like I did, or even some dark/black denim and a button up shirt to keep it classy. However, it could be worn with some cute jean shorts and a baggy graphic T on a warm summer night! What’s better than a Shopaholic finding pieces to wear year round? xoxo P PHOTOGRAPHY BY LINDSEY BOHNE KELSCH Colored Jeans: JCrew…

    Faux Fur Fever

    Confession…I have Faux Fur Fever!  Living in Utah gets pretty dang cold. This faux fur coat has been a little life saver! Its not only a bold fashion statement, but it’s W A R M! It is such a fun piece to have in your closet. If you don’t have one, you most definitely need to add one to your wardrobe! Like me, some may feel a little bit self conscious when you first put it on to go out, but KEEP IT ON! It is a fun fashion statement. You can pair it like I did and keep it very simple, or you can rock it with some boyfriend jeans…

    Harem Heaven

    Hello H A R E M pants! I never thought in a million years that I would purchase a pair of these. I didn’t think that I would be that girl that would have the ability to pull them off and feel 100% confident in them, but I LOVED seeing girls wear them. Well ladies, I finally braved the harem pants! I kept this outfit simple and paired my harems with a simple button up shirt and threw on my denim vest. I have seen the harem pants styled in lots of ways! First, I have seen them with a fun baggy T that’s half tucked. Second, I have seen them…
