People often remark about my ability to accessorize an ensemble head to toe. I am very flattered that my “fans” are taking notice because if there is one thing I would like to be known for it would be this exactly! I do not just wear clothes. Everyone knows how to take a dress off of a hanger and zip it up the back – that is what kindergarten is for. I am an expert in the fashion industry and I style clothes for a living. I observe details in garments and pair them with complimentary accessories. Quite frankly, I never leave the house without earrings. I am uncomfortable without them. So why am I telling you this? Because I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT MERCEDES SALAZAR’S EARRINGS AND HANDBAGS PRIOR TO MY TRIP.

These works of art will elevate your #ootd from good to runway ready in a matter of seconds. Every item in the collection is unique, bold, and over-sized. I am talkin’ shoulder length parakeets #dead, sweeping tassels, and fruit-shaped woven handbags. To me, Mercedes Salazar is like the Colombian Kate Spade (RIP). How AMAZING would yesterday’s look have been with this bag or these earrings?!
