My Rules....

Most of you probably dont know, but I went to college and graduated at the Fashion Institute. Fashion and style has always been something I was super passionate about. Once I graduated and started working in the industry I realized that this career would not allow me to fulfill my ultimate dream of being a mother. In my head, I always knew that when I had kids, I needed to stay home with them if possible, thats just what I wanted. So shortly before my wedding day, hubs and I decided that I would quit working. Thats my story.

Any who, after hockey season, our office is a total mess and I finally was pushed in to a deep clean of that room. While cleaning, I found my fashion book that we create in school. Its just big binder of anything inspiring, or outfits you love, looks you can never get tired of seeing and anything else you want to add. I hadnt seen that book in over 7 years if you would believe it. While reading it I came across MY personal rules of style. I totally forgot I wrote them down and I was laughing because I still live by those. Amazing to see that I didnt just write them down to write them down, but that I truly believed them and still do!

Heres just a little peek.


I really have always loved this girls style.


Now on to MY RULES OF STYLE.....I thought I would share them, because they are simple to live by and most, all people really should.
My Rules
  1. Always hold out for the perfect fit, ALWAYS. (just because its cute, doesnt mean it will look cute on you if it doesnt fit properly)
  2. Dont ever spend too much on anything overly trendy.
  3. A splash of color is all you need.
  4. Lux accessories always look great with jeans.
  5. Dont repeat outfits exactly - change something, even if its just your lipgloss.
  6. Never over accessorize. (if your wearing busy print, keep it super simple,dont go putting necklaces, head bands, earings, you will look goofy)
  7. Accentuate your assets with clothes that flatter. (dont be afraid of clothes that fit)
  8. Always wear great flattering fabrics.
  9. Simple with a twist will always win. (dont get too crazy with you clothes)
  10. Never wear high waters with heels. (this looks tacky and sloppy)
