Cozy and Fabulous Fall Fashion for your At-Home Lifestyle

There’s an iconic scene in Sex and the City when Carrie falls flat on the runway in the middle of a fashion show but the show goes on with the models walking right over her and her friend shouts “Oh my gosh, she’s fashion roadkill!”

This is me—fashion roadkill...I lay here at the beginning of fall, facedown on the runway of 2020, tripped by the high expectations of our times—managing my children’s virtual education, distracting a toddler from emptying every cabinet, balancing my working needs with my spouse, and keeping us all healthy and safe in the midst of a global pandemic.

My fashion reflects my mood—bored and tired.

But keep watching this episode, friends, because this is where Carrie and her infinite wisdom become a guide. Laying on the ground humiliated she decides this: “I had a choice: I could slink off the runway and let my inner model die of shame. Or I could pick myself up, flaws and all, and finish.”

Like Carrie, I have a choice. I could lay here and get stepped over by life. Or I can get back up, shake my hair out, and give my very best catwalk twirl turning this downtrodden mood around.

And it starts with my wardrobe.
