Boys and Men listen up! Here are some fashion  trends for you that are out right now and that will definitely help you stand out in a crowded room! So listen up because here we go! Velvet Velvet is an ongoing 2018 trend and it's a great way to add some texture to your outfit. There are so many ways to add this in subtly if you'd rather not make a huge statement. Leather shoes, for example, are a fantastic way to blend in some velvet and make a statement.

Guys, this is not a drill. CODE RED. I SHOPPED. So hear me out OK? First of all, One of the things was a gift, so that doesn't even count. Second, I was taken shopping by my family and boyfriend so really this is all their fault. Finally, the sales were all way too bomb. To recap, I tried to not shop at all, and ended up shopping, So sad, but true. Let's break it down. I'm sure  you want to know what it was that was so necessary or amazing that I couldn't resist it.

Yup, I'm a shopaholic and it's a problem. So... I took the drastic measures and did what needed to be done. All my shopping apps? Gone. Email subscription? Deleted. Avoiding the mall at all costs and putting everything I ...
