Surfer Girl Cool At Alexander Wang SS17

9/13/2016

In a perfect world, I would be wearing nothing but Alexander Wang all of the time. And, by all of the time, I mean, ALL of the time. I would be that uber-cool mom in the school pickup line at my son’s school looking like this:

Alright, that’s a little bit dramatic. But, you get my point: I love Alexander Wang and all of his designs. All of his clothes and accessories always perfectly match my style aesthetic. However, I am always and forever on a serious #singlemombudget (which basically means there’s no extra money just sitting around waiting for me to spend it on clothes). But, that’s ok. I’m totally fine with just clicking through and salivating at his looks online, filling up a shopping basket with all of my favorite finds and then exiting the page like nothing happened. It’s like retail therapy at its finest! hahaha

While I decided to sit out this season New York Fashion Week, I was kind of sad to miss his show. Thanks Jesus for the internet and my ability to receive all the backstage beauty looks straight to my inbox! Side note: Totally not the same as being there (sigh) but it’s close enough and I’ll definitely take it mostly because I honestly do love checking out all of the backstage beauty looks.
