One thing's for certain: when the weather gets hot, the layers come off, and it always starts with shoes!
But, you know that sad moment when you pick your favorite pair of winter booties up off the floor, place them on the shelf, and say goodbye until next fall? What if you didn't have to? Or maybe you don't put them away, but you never really feel comfortable wearing them, too afraid of feeling out-of-season.
Well, I'm here to tell you that there's not reason to be afraid; you can start wearing your booties all year long! Whether you're boho chic, jeans and t-shirt, or more of a "pretty in pink" kind of girl, there's a way for any style to rock this trend. Check out the photos below to see how to pair them with your favorite summer looks!

Safe travels!
With my boyfriend's birthday coming up, and a month and a half worth of time spent away from him, a trip out to the west coast, or as some would say, the best coast, was inevitable. I got my ticket and counted down the days. Yesterday, it was time to travel.
I started out on what seemed like a normal trip, with myself running late, check-in being incredibly slow, and a mother with two small boys holding up the security line. I rushed to my gate with what I thought was 10 minutes to spare and stood there waiting for boarding. After a couple minutes, I realized that the board said my gate was for a delayed flight out to Houston, not Chicago where I was headed. The "next" flight on the board was mine, late, two hours to be exact. And so ensued my panic.

Nashville Fashion Week 2013!
Nashville Fashion Week, the push that started it all!
This year was Nashville's third annual fashion week and it was nothing short of the splendor it held last year. The headliners included lines like Nonoo, T. Rains, Modern Trousseau, SAND, and many more!
I booked the opening shows for Tuesday and Friday night, so my nights consisted of several clothing, hair, and makeup changes. Needless to say, I was a busy woman and I wouldn't have survived or been ready in time to walk without my dressers. Those girls did so much for me, fastening buttons, zipping up zippers, and tying my shoes.
Shout out to them, Danielle, Zaina, and Nancy, you guys are awesome!
Tuesday night was the opening night, and it was by far my favorite. The venue chosen to kick-off the week was the Pinnacle building in downtown Nashville. From the 22nd floor, I could look out and see the lights all over town. It was such a dazzling sight!

Show at the Symphony
While I was in Nashville, I was also privileged to walk in the Symphony's annual benefit show, featuring Monique Lhuillier's Fall 2013 collection. Her line came straight off the New York Fashion Week runway and into the dressing room of Nashville's Schermerhorn Symphony Center. The collection included a palette of jewel and earth tones mixed with draping, embroidery and fringe.

Cabin fever cure: Nashville road trip
It has been over a month since I returned home from Asia, and I think it suffices to say that there was nothing for me to come back to, as far as my career is concerned. The "fashion" industry in Knoxville consists of small boutiques and department stores and there is just not a whole lot going on. So, traveling to Nashville this past week was a much needed breath of fresh air.
Nashville celebrated its third annual Nashville Fashion Week, April 2-6. I was scouted during a model search at last year's fashion week and was able to walk in it for the Friday and Saturday shows. This year, I walked Tuesday and Friday night for designers such as Kal Reiman, Reddoll by Tatyana Merenyuk, and Plenty by Tracy Reese. On the days I wasn't in a show, I spent my time shooting with photographers Layla Mays, Price Stone, and Jesse Koska. Needless to say, I had a very busy, but enjoyable week. After a month of sitting idle, I was more than ready for this.
