It’s that time of year again! Memphis Fashion Week is here and I’m so excited for all of the festivities. Rachel Roy, one of my all-time favorite designers, is the headlining designer this year and I. Can. Not. Wait!
From her designs, to how she runs her business and juggles being a mom, she’s always been an inspiration to me and I’m so excited that not only will I be able to meet her (if I get a picture I might pass out, lol), but I’m one of the local influencers that’s been gifted a few pieces from her line to wear during the events (stay tuned!)
I love seeing all of the style that Memphians have to offer during these events, so I will be covering everything per usual. It’s been a while since I’ve done a #citystyle post, so if you see me during Memphis Fashion Week and you’re looking fly, say hi!
