It's About Time; Stepping Back into a Yes Lifestyle!

It has been 7 years since I have published a blog.  

To be honest, I never gained any inner momentum with my blog.  Back then, I was navigating the marketing terrain of my brand, Yes World Boutique.  For 6 years, I designed a brand of cruise apparel and, for a short period of time (3 seasons), I also designed an organic cotton yoga lifestyle apparel line, which I called Yes Lifestyle.  Although I closed both of these collections in 2016, my love of style and design remains. 

Coco Chanel summed up my current approach to fashion when she said"every day is a fashion show and the world is your runway".

During the COVID pandemic lockdown, I spent a lot of time alone.
It gave me the time to go through my closet and play with new looks.

Yes! I am passionate about style!

I created a Dior look using my Mom's black pleated skirt, a vintage 
snakeskin belt and a Vivian Shuy jacket.
My huge bag is Dooney and Bourke filled with all my stuff for work!

Yes! I love looking my best!

I'm 58 years old and still love my heels!

Yes! I still believe that great style is ageless!

So, on this day, although I am drowning in self criticism at the picture I am posting, I am courageously dipping my toes back into the world of fashion blogging and will see where it takes me.

I hope that I can inspire and connect with other women who want to break free of age constraints and freely express themselves through style. 

Come live a Yes Lifestyle with me!

Obsessed! Vince Camuto Talks Cycling and Shoes with Suzanne

Wondering if Vince Camuto, celebrity shoe designer, thinks about urban cycling when designing shoes.  Well, kinda sorta.  Suzanne discovered while speaking to him at his recent exclusive appearance at Hudsons Bay in Toronto, yesterday.
