Now, during these holidays in turbulent times, I am reminded to live boldly and authentically. Color used consciously radiates deliberate vibes out into the world. Sparkles, in the form of jewels or sequins, reflect light like constellations. Confidence, boldness and love are necessary to achieve an inner glow. Bring on the paillettes, the tiaras, the crystals, and the love. Let's get glowing.

This November I've sparked new friendships, flames with old crushes sputtered out. Drama rages on in various realms of my life, and it's left me questioning who I am. The winds of change are swirling; I've reached an inflection point in my life. I'm doing a lot of reflecting, a lot of raging, and a lot of hustling. The bold colors, reflective textures, and inspirational women featured in this month's mood board are symbolic of the creativity and power I'm seeking to evoke as I charge forward.

THE INAUGURAL MOODBOARD. I've been obsessed with mood boards as long as I can remember. During my childhood I'd spend hours sitting on the floor in my bedroom, cutting apart Vogue, Lucky, and really any other magazine I could get my hands on, to snip out the looks that ~moved~ me in order to assemble my own layouts. After a three year stint of creative atrophy, I've returned to my scrapbook-esque pastime, armed with digital tools and renewed passion.
