Pull out all the stops in this purple pencil skirt, paired with a printed crop top. The right amount of color, print and rock star accessories, create the most glam, office, street style look. That's a thing right? If not, I'm just creating imaginary ideals in my brain. I envision this office friendly "stop them in their tracks" outfit, to be worn by a fearless  fashionista. She embodies confidence, femininity and personal style. In my head, I would wear this to a meeting with my Editor in Chief at Elle Magazine. I would bring my editorial and feature story ideas to her, she would reject them, make me re-write the entire thing and I would love every minute of it. Now, I am just daydreaming here, but maybe my future fashion career will entail some form of publications, who knows. I always secretly knew there was a reason I drowned myself in deadlines when I was an Opinion Editor for my high school newspaper. My advisor back then, Carol Richtsmeier, "Mrs. Ritchie" as we called her, was like Miranda Priestly in the Devil Wears Prada if you can imagine. Every column I wrote, was re-written and edited at least ten times. She even referred to the newspaper staff as "stupid," which I secretly loved. Thanks to Ritchie, my love for writing and publications has flourished intensely.

Get The Last Uses of Your Fur

(Polyvore.com - hannahcheers14)
Here's how I styled fur.

This winter, fur vests, ankle booties, leather leggings and pioneer hats were the talk of the fashion world. Fur was huge this season, and I could cry at the thought of putting mine in storage until temps drop again. Fortunately for me, I live in Texas, where one day it's sunny with a high of 80, and the next day it's 20 with a chance of snow. I'm not kidding. When the chilly air presents itself, I like to take advantage and whip out that fur. A fur vest is such a statement piece, you can wear it with the simplest articles of clothing. A white button down, some black leggings, or my favorite, over a dress. Fur doesn't have to cost a kidney either. I grabbed mine from Sam Moon for only $25. The best part about it was that it was faux fur, which meant, no killing of animals. Hooray. Let's just hope that the fur trend comes back around next fall, to bring us some warmth.
