Half the fun of a festive weekend is in the preparation.  I love the hunt.  Looking for the perfect dress. Finding shoes that enhance.  Matching with the perfect accessory.. jewelry, handbag, jacket, scarf….   And in the end, an ensemble that isn’t fashion, but rather a personal statement about you.  Feminine and masculine, soft and bold… the juxtaposition that exists in everyone delivered through your presence.  That to me is style.  Adopting fashion to make a personal statement.  In the end, that’s all there is.   And if done well on the outside, people are drawn to find out more of what is on the inside.
