In 2025 you are...
Reflections, goal setting, and one big sticky note
It’s that funny in-between time of short days and no routine. Yikes! In lieu of that structure, I take this time to write goals and letters to myself. I’ve learned to love this ritual, and without it, the ball never rolls. I encourage you to try it if you don’t already have a method in place - It starts with the VBP (very big pad):

Obsessed over this article about Orcas that wear dead salmon on their heads as “Salmon hats”. Fashion is, indeed, life.
Happy New Year my beautiful fashion friends - I am grateful every single day to be on this journey with you.
