Fresh Fashion Trends 2023

Happy first day of Spring! Isn’t that the best news ever?

I thought it would be the perfect time to talk about my five favorite spring and summer fashion trends.

1. Sleek Column Maxi’s

Talk about a very easy and very stylish look. This silhouette is going to be very popular this season. I love this look because it’s so simple but also very fashion forward. It’s also a great transition piece to head into spring.

2. Fringe

How fun is this vibe? If you love feathers like I do, then you should definitely try this one out. So much of the time when you hear fringe you think cowboy but when you wear it as a skirt you don’t even think about it.

3. Asymmetrical Skirts or dresses

High/low? Hello 90’s. They sure are back. This trend is more of a high/low on the sides. It’s also a very flattering look because of the asymmetricness.

4. Denim Skirts

If I’m being honest, I’m pretty shocked I’m into this one but again, hello 90’s. They’re back.

I say this every single time I post a trends list. If you don’t like the trend never ever bend to it. Trends are just that, if it’s not for you then feel free to pass on it.

Always stay fabulously you.

I don’t know about you but I’m ready to bid adieu to the cold and welcome Spring. Thank you for stopping by today! I hope you have a fantastic first Monday of spring and your day is full of sparkle.

Let’s Do This, 2023!

Happy 2023 my dear Friends!

I don’t know about you but I for one am pretty thrilled (as I always am) to welcome a new year. We always hit the ground running in January as we start our seemingly never ending “busy season” with the photo biz. But, I still try to, as I fondly call it “get my creative out” and still blog while working some crazy hours in this fabulous first month.

I do this post every year as kind of an outline of what my hopes are for The Fast Fashionista in the coming year. I thought long and hard about it and then it came to me. Stop overthinking it (my specialty). My fashion and lifestyle part of Fast Fash is simply going to be fast and easy ways to add just a little glam, sparkle, and …fizz to your everyday life. No matter what that looks like. Simple ways to elevate life.

The Perfectly Plated part of my blog is something I enjoy deeply. Few things I love more than drinking wine in my kitchen and cooking. Sharing that with you is always such a bonus. I love fancy food made easy and would love to continue to do that with my French loving flair drizzled in.

Oh, cocktails…

Such an early love of mine. I started bartending at age 18 I immediately fell in love with mixing drinks. “My Martini Moment” has taken on many different shapes in the close to nine years I’ve had this blog. I love creating and making cocktails, even more, sharing them. This is a skill I’m always trying to get better at.

As always, thank you for being here, wether you’re new to this site, a loyal follower, or tune in every now and again. Thank you, thank you, and thank you! I often get asked why I don’t monetize this blog. The simple answer? I don’t want to. All I want is to share my creative vibes with you. That’s enough for me.

My wish for you is that this new year brings you endless happiness, nothing but delicious food, and dazzling drinks with only the very best company.

Cheers to you and yours!

Happy Monday to you all!

With Fall being just three days away I thought it was a good time to share two very easy ways that you can be on trend. You probably already have at least one of these in your closet.

I combined two trends here and they are very easy and chic at the same time. It might sound like a “no duh” piece but the white tank has been just everywhere and definitely continues into the cooler season. Great to layer with or use it as a transitional piece. Wear it in the day when its warm but throw something over it when it gets chilly.

But what should you put over top? A bomber!! This is def a look that can be dressed up or dressed down. To the pumpkin patch or out for dinner.

Just in case you needed a reason to shop or go through your closet and see what you’ve got. I have your back. Haha! Now let’s stroll into this week with a strong, hot coffee, and the excitement of a new season on the horizon.

Have a fabulous Monday full of style and I also hope it’s just, like, easy.

Godspeed.
