“Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.” -YSL

The quote that I have featured on the top right of my newly formatted blog (with the new adorable header that my bf designed for me) is by Yves Saint Laurent, famous French fashion designer. I think this quote explains a lot of what fashion should mean to me in that fashion isn’t necessarily about what clothes you are wearing but how you are wearing them, not in the way that you wear them right but that you wear them with confidence. A challenge, to myself, to you (if you’re reading) to take a day and be a complete knock out. Who cares what you are wearing? Sounds dumb coming from someone who writes about what she wears everyday, as if anyone cared… but it is important that amidst the fun of writing about different pieces of clothing and different outfits to remember that its not the dress that matters its the girl.

Today’s knock out outfit… Would I normally call this a knockout outfit? No. But even with an overly bloated belly (not sure why, but it could have something to do with my usual salt content +1500mg, probably an overshare!) I will pretend its a knock out… Or say confidently? Maybe pretend for now, baby steps.

{When you think about it, Beyonce in Vogue and me in the office is really the same thing}
