Models and Mannequins

Why is it that something can look beautifully spot-on within the pages of our favorite magazines, but when we put it on in front of the mirror the look that previously looked spectacular, suddenly doesn't measure up? One word: fit.
If we don't fit something, why do we buy it? We buy it because the fashion industry tells us it's in style, because our friends are, or because it looks phenomenal on the size 0 model showcasing it. Most of us will never look like supermodels in the same exact looks they grace fashion magazine covers with. Yes, it's crushing. On the bright side, however, we don't need to mirror them in every way. We can look better than the runway walkers by understanding fit.
In the next few weeks Seven Day Style will showcase tips and tricks on how to find and fit your inner supermodel. Beginning tomorrow, look for fitness tips and fit tricks to help you express the best you, every time you get dressed.

Fashion Doesn't Need to be Expensive

I am excited to re-launch Belladonna Marie. What once was a local RTW brand will now become a local high-end, on-line boutique.
Soon, I will showcase the designers you love at the prices you can afford. I look forward to receiving feedback from you. Let me know what designers you love and I will bring them.
