Hello my fashionable friends,

On last week’s segment of Fashion Forum, I took time to introduce myself, provide background on why and how I started my blog, The Fearless Fashionista®, and I discussed my journey to becoming a published author. Check out the segment here.

I created my blog, The Fearless Fashionista, to express my love for style and fashion, with my main goal being to build up a library of content and to find my voice as a blogger. I also wanted to impart the style lessons I’ve learned, share fashion tips, and provide style inspiration to those who want or need it.

Writing Find Your Fabulous: The Fearless Fashionista® Approach to Developing and Owning Your Style

I wanted to write a book for a long time, and was inspired by “Carrie Bradshaw,” lead character from television series Sex and the City. For those who aren’t familiar with the program, “Carrie” wrote a weekly newspaper column and aggregated that content to write a book. That’s how I approached writing Find Your Fabulous. I started with content that I originally published on my blog, and rounded it out with supplemental information and stories to give it a complete and cohesive feel.

Find Your Fabulous is not just a book, it’s a style solution. I outline my four-step process, The D.I.V.A. Essentials™, which provides a step-by-step guide to help readers pull together a look that is authentic and make sense for their lives. I also include style and money saving tips, and personal stories to make fashion and style seem more accessible.

My Outfit Details

These photos are from a recent photo shoot that I did to lift my spirits. Since COVID hit, I haven’t had too many reasons to get dressed up, so I decided to create a reason. I threw on a tulle skirt — well, because they’re fabulous. To me, tulle skirts are the epitome of femininity, grace, and elegance.

I got this skirt from Amazon last year. The Halogen green polka dot utility jacket came from Nordstrom. I also purchased the skirt, but haven’t worn it yet. And my shoes are several years old by Sam Edelman. I chose fuchsia shoes to help minimize the “princess” vibe of the skirt.

Thank you for reading—and please check me out every Tuesday on Instagram Live at 7 p.m. ET for Fashion Forum.
