And then once the trip was upon us, we both agreed that we didn’t want to spend precious time trying to capture “cool” outfit posts… Continue Reading New York through Karl’s Lens

It’s a loose, straight piece, nearly “shapeless.” To render it office-appropriate and add definition mimicking my body shape, I belted it. As I saw my now cinched waist in the mirror, I considered the female form, which led to me thinking… Continue Reading Fashion Undressed | A Womanly Figure: Considering the Dress Form
