Taking a moment to remember the great Karl Lagerfeld today. It took me awhile to warm up to his work and see the genius and creativity in his offerings..but I got there :) Through the last few years, I came to really appreciate his sharp takes, as well as his constant innovation -whether grandiose or subtle. He kept Chanel ever-interesting, along with spinning numerous other projects - he was indefatigable! His thoughts on the energy of creativity and how it should always be fresh are among my favorite ideas on the subject, both important, wise and something he clearly practiced. Be free, Karl! <3

This is sentiment is always good to keep in mind, but its especially important now, with wedding season in full swing. The reasoning is simple: it can be disrespectful to arrive under-dressed, but it is never disrespectful or inappropriate to be tastefully overdressed.
