Oh it's crazy that it's Winter already! So this Collection has been on my mind for awhile, wanting to stray away from Winter colors and implement more pastel, a bit more uplifting styles for the chilly season. So this Collection is one of casual, cozy and cheerful vibes that should convey a sense of comfort as well as easy styles.
