Back To School Teacher Outfit

 Hey Fashionista's,

Back to school season is in full swing here in the United States. I wanted to share with you my first day outfit and little bit about what I teach.  

What do I specialize in?

I specialize in educating students with disabilities. Working with individuals with disabilities is something I am extremely passionate about. More on this in the future. 

What am I currently teaching?

Public Speaking! I currently teach public speaking in person and online at university. 

Why public speaking? 

In our increasingly digital world, and especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, the art of effective communication often gets lost. This class is one of the most important in my opinion because it is a skill we all need, regardless of career choice or personal lifestyle. I know it's not every student's favorite class, but I try to make it fun. While I never ask my students to become professional speakers, I hope they come away from class more confident in their speaking abilities and able to communicate more effectively than before.

First Day Fit:


For the first day this year, I wore this orange floral dress. I wish I could remember where it was from (sorry y'all, I'm a little rusty on my blogger skills haha). I paired the dress with a pair of nice sandals as it was over 90 degrees this day, hoop earrings, my apple watch and my black work bag.


Do you work in education? Tell me what you teach in the comments below.

Project Runway 10-15-15 Recap Review

Previously on Project Runway: The designers gave members of the Project Runway crew a makeover. Hey guys! Welcome to this week's Project Runway Recap Review! We are getting closer and closer to fashion week each episode and the competition is getting tight. At this point, any of the designers could go home. Last week was packed with drama...but...its a new week, and a fresh slate, so lets get started. Challenge: The five remaining designers will make an outfit inspired by the New York City bridges (Queensborough, Brooklyn, Manhattan). The designers were assigned a bridge from the black bag of doom. Each designer created a textile with a 3-D printer that they had to incorporate into their garment. This is an Avant Garde challenge. Thoughts In The Workroom:  I'm not so sure what I think about 3-D printers...comment down below and let me know what you think about them (in general, not just in fashion). Candice made a good choice not using black again this week. Designers wh...

Is The Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment Worth the Hype?

 Hey Fashionista's! Today we are going to talk all about Hailey Bieber's Rhode Skincare line. This is not sponsored, I just really wanted to talk about these products. This semester in my public speaking class, I taught a unit all about persuasive speaking. My goal was to make the topic of persuasive speaking more relatable by showing how prevalent it is in our modern world. What was the product I brought in to show the power of persuasive speaking in the "influencer era"? You bet it was the Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment. If you are a longtime reader, you know I rarely talk about skin care. Actually, I have probably never talked about skin care. That's because I don't really know what to say. I don't ever buy the trendy products because I am allergic to so many of them and if not, they make me break out. BUT Hailey Bieber got me- talk about effective persuasive speaking. I watched a few videos on YouTube of her using the products and talking about their ing...

Best Sustainable Brands of 2023

 Hey Fashionistas! Recently, I have been trying to make better fashion/beauty choices for the environment so I thought I would share some of my favorites with you. None of this is sponsored (although, if you're one of the brands I mentioned- hi and please feel free to reach out). Garnier: I wanted to start out with Garnier because they are not only an environmentally friendly brand but they are also my favorite beauty brand of all time. Garnier is a holy grail for me. I discovered this brand when they were featured on Project Runway many years ago and they completely changed my confidence. I use so many of their products on my hair: Mouse, Curl Cream, Hair Spray, Hair Gel, Shampoo, Conditioner, Conditioning Masks, etc.  Recently, I have switched from the traditional shampoo bottle to the shampoo bar and I am so glad that I did. I still get that Garnier glow to my hair while using less unnecessary plastics. Other Garner Fructis shampoo and conditioner bottles are made partly fr...
