Weekends like this one are why I fought so hard to still be here. 👑

Friday night, had me dancing like I was back in college — completely lost in the music, in the moment, in the kind of joy that exists outside of time. There is a version of me from before cancer that lives in those songs. This weekend she came out to play.

Then later that same night after the rave — we time travelled back even further. If you grew up a kid in NYC in 1999 you already know. I caught the storybook finish, except this time, with a little more vintage apple body glitter and .

Sunday was reconnecting with my body and soul in a totally different way. Getting the boat ready to launch for the season, getting my hands dirty and my body working. Even creating my very own rainbow. Feeling alive in myself and in the water.

This is the summer of yes. Living fully, saying yes to the plans and dressing for it. Wearing the corset, the bikini. Not questioning whether I belong here, or in this body, or in this outfit.

I know that I do. 👑

I thought I’d lost her forever.💔

The woman I knew — the one who walked into a room and felt at home in her own skin — I wasn’t sure she was coming back.

But here’s what nobody tells you about loss: sometimes it cracks you open just enough to let a better version of yourself walk through.

👉🏼 I started treating every new version of me like a best friend. Welcoming her in. Asking her what she needed, what gave her confidence, what brought her joy. No pressure. No grief for what was. Just presence, curiosity, and grace.

👉🏼 And slowly — I stopped living for everyone else and started living for me. In how I dress. In the decisions I make. In the moments I choose to celebrate, especially the small ones. Because gratitude doesn’t wait for the big milestones. It lives right here, in the everyday.

When I was navigating my hair journey I couldn’t find a space that held all of it — the grief, the identity shifts, the mental and emotional weight of hair loss that nobody talks about. So I built one.

Florals for spring?

Groundbreaking. Actually, yes.

This couture headband brings together two silks, hand sourced from the bazaars of Bombay and the Garment District of NYC. Embroidery and brocade bring the piece to life, rooted in Indian craftsmanship that carries generations of culture, artistry, and meaning in every thread.

Miranda would raise an eyebrow. Then ask who made it.

This was one of my favorite moments from our Dubai design trip.

As I rode through the desert in the middle of the night on my camel, I kept thinking about how much strength it takes to move through darkness with trust, patience, and quiet pride. It reminded me that sometimes you don’t need anyone there to congratulate you for how far you’ve come — sometimes you simply have to become your own best friend, witness your own journey, and honor yourself.

After the ride, I stood quietly with my camel, gently stroking and comforting her, and she lowered herself at my feet, returning that same calm. That feeling stayed with me — the love that can exist in solitude, the pride of taking stock of your own becoming, and the quiet power of knowing you carried yourself here — crowned.

Designing this collection, I kept coming back to that feeling — strength, presence, and the ability to stand in the dark and still show up fully as the light.

Showing up to a new sailing season feeling stronger, softer, wiser, and more myself than ever. As a breast cancer survivor, there’s something powerful about continuing to push into new spaces, new limits, and new versions of yourself — while still allowing life to feel beautiful and fun along the way.

And honestly…I was also promised mock aperol spritzes and matching outfits by my husband💛

Last night, a few of my favorite things in life came together — fashion, storytelling, friendship, and breast cancer advocacy.

There’s something really special about being in a room where people truly understand the emotional power of style and identity while navigating cancer. Reconnecting with my dear friend Melissa Berry always feels like coming home in that way — two women who deeply understand how something as “simple” as fashion can completely shift how someone sees themselves during one of the hardest chapters of their life.

It was also such a joy reflecting on these conversations alongside .lawson and . One of the biggest takeaways from the evening was this: fashion is not vain. It can be healing. It can help you reconnect with yourself. It can help you construct who you want to be while navigating something as scary and unpredictable as cancer.

I especially loved when Carson so thoughtfully acknowledged during the panel while speaking about the power of something as small as wearing a beautiful pink turban. Those small acts of self-expression matter more than people realize.

And the perfect ending to the night was all of us enjoying a screening of The Devil Wears Prada 2 together — surrounded by brilliant, stylish, strong women (and men) I genuinely adore.

Fashion, friendship, purpose, and a little bit of pink. My kind of evening.
