BCBGMAXAZRIA Origami Dress

If you’re a regular reader, you’ll know that I’m absolutely dress crazy! I love dresses, I love their feminine qualities, their edgy qualities, their versatility, their classiness, their timelessness…. I could go on.
It’s definitely not rare that I’m captivated by a dress, but it’s rather unusual that I’m caught staring at a glowing computer screen, [...]

Focusing On: Mad By Design

I have been waiting years and years to come across a design company that doesn’t create what sells, but creates the embodiment of design. Mad By Design’s aesthetic and ingenius designs have completely won me over for that very reason.
