The only upside to bikini season being over is that it’s fancypants season, with a bundle of reasons to dress up (what feels like) every weekend. Last weekend, of course, was Thanksgiving – and y’all, I figured out the Perfect Holiday Dress. [Yes, I know that, like life, you can’t “figure out” a dress, but […]
If I haven’t mentioned it yet, my birthday was last week 😉 My sister, true to form, took advantage of the opportunity and revived our sibling rivalry (read about it here and here) – sending me on another fashion dare: Now, I personally think this is SO DOABLE! I may also turn this around and […]
Sometimes it’s the simple outfits that give us joy, those that we use on completely normal days for normal tasks, on brick in the wall of our sartorial identity. I’d like to think that I’ll look back on this time in my life and see how I cut and pasted my internal life onto my […]
Let’s get one thing clear – each birthday is a GIFT. None of this “it’s so sad, I’m another year older” BS. The preciousness of birthdays was ground into me during my twenties, during which I lost a good friend suddenly at the age of 26, three of my mentors to cancer, and I myself […]
Ahh, the joys of loungewear! For years I’ve been wearing old sweats around the house, each pair with a story. Pair 1 I bought at United Colors of Benetton in Rome when I was in 8th grade (I’m turning 32 tomorrow – the 16th – so you do the math). Pair 2 was Rodrigo’s, the […]
I am painfully aware of the ludicrous amount of time we all spend on social media (I said “we all” to make myself feel better, let’s be real). The brain is such a machine – what goes into it dictates what comes out, how you feel, your perspective on life and yourself. Knowing me, and […]
Friday was one of those days where you run around all day before you know it the sun is going down and the week is over. They can be hard to feel like you have a million things to do and only so much time and energy to do them in. Somehow, and maybe it’s just […]
One of my college friends, Megan, celebrated her birthday on the fourth so I drove up to Sacramento to have dinner with her and friends! We managed to snap some photos of this tiger print getup at my vanity before the 2 hour drive – so here we go. This outfit was a bit of […]
In my research, the deconstructed jeans trend actually started popping up in 2014 (and yes, I research things like Picasso’d pants now, and thank God this is a judgement-free zone). That being said, this year the trend has gained traction and seems to be becoming more mainstream. I wouldn’t say you could wear deconstructed denim […]
It’s here! The LAFW vlog is finally up on the StigMendes IGTV! I’ll let the video speak for itself – I hope you enjoy, and let me know what you think! love, Stig.
