COLOR BLINDED

Ive been working for Alexander Wang this season. A favorite of Anna Wintour, The Weeknd and models with Instagram numbers that rival the population of Brazil.

Typical looks from my office, with equally and/or more attractive folk. 

Loosely interpreted, the AW employee handbook states only black, white or otherwise somber colors are allowed. As an unapologetic lover of fuchsia, I was torn. But the simplicity began to grow on  me. And a uniform emerged.

What I believed: Uniforms are boring, creativity theives and prisoner garb.

What Ive learned: a uniform eliminates the biggest decision of your morning. ELIMINATES!  And with that out of the way, you are open to receive creativity.  Without worrying about if you've rolled your cuffs unevenly enough. 

My daily go to:

Top Etro / Skirt L'Agence / Boots by Isabel Marant to feed every girls Francophiliactic hunger

So, there you have it. A minimal post about a minimal look with minimal effort. Now, get back to work and stop getting distracting by all the blinding greys and beige hues in your office.
