I must not be feeling well because I had NO idea that the Shopbop sale started yesterday until I saw it on a fellow bloggers Instagram… thank God for bloggers 😉 This is a great time to stock up on basic fall and winter items since the sale includes new arrives and full-price items. I have my eye on this jacket, these boots, this dress, and this sweater. Heck, who am I kidding? I have my eye on everything in the entire website! Take 20% off items under $500 and 25$ off items over $500 with CODE: STOCKUP18. Enjoy shopping and tell me what you bought!!
Fashion
Activewear For Under $100
Over the weekend I attended the DanceBody LIVE stream sculpt class (if you want to try another LIVE stream class for free use code BANDBLIVE and if you want DB exclusive leggings for 20% off, use code DBMAGGIE)— I hoped you joined or at least watched! I had SO much fun during the class and gave it my all, knowing that people were watching. Usually during workout classes I like to pretend I am either the instructor, in a workout video (or music video), or live streaming, just to push myself and perform better. In a way I have been training for this moment for a long time. I was completely dead after class, went home and crashed on the couch for a few hours. But it was all worth it!
Am I a Narcissist?

Originally when I sat down for this blog post I was going to write the quintessential topic of how you can still wear florals for fall and how this dress is only $79…. but really you should buy it, it’s $79 with 40% off!! Anyway, what I want to talk about is a topic that has been prevalent in my conversations for the past week: Are bloggers narcissistic?

Another New York Fashion Week has come and go. The September NYFW is the biggest one of the two (another one in February). In September they show the Spring collection of the following year, and in February they show the fall collection. The reasoning for is is because back in the day before everything was instance gratification, fashion week was for buyers, editors, and stylists. Buyers of stores like Bergdorf’s to see what they wanted in their stores, stylists to see what they wanted to style their clients in, and editors (Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar) to write in their magazines so their readers will know what will be on trend in the upcoming season. Now-a-days with social media, bloggers, and live streaming, showing a collection 6 months in advance is starting to become an ancient idea. More brands are showing ready to wear items that can be bought now (but not all brands do this). Other’s have pathed their own path by showing their collection outside of the famous week. Fashion week has really changed over the years but I still think it holds the same magic. Every show I attend I feel like I am on cloud 9. I used to sit at home and watch the shows live stream, praying that someday I will be in that room. And here I am, attending my 7th season, sitting in front row of a few shows, and having a marvelously time doing so!
