Cultivating confidence through fashion and style
By Erika, Fashion Expert https://youtu.be/-zu5kKeYJCs As you can see, we're bringing back "Just One Thing!" It's been a while, but I am super excited because there are tons of great products and brands that I can't WAIT to share with you guys. A quick note about my "Just One Thing" posts - these are NEVER [...]
By Erika, Resident Fashionista If you follow the YCS Instagram account you will have noticed an influx of leather and lace details in the #ootd and #ootw photos. Leather and lace details were all over last year's runways (hence, their appearance in this year's store inventories). I, for one, am loving the fact that a) [...]
By Erika, Resident Fashionista Hey guys and dolls! I know we’ve been quiet on the YCS front this week. My apologies. I’ve learned that there is a balance in life and sometimes taking a night to yourself or spending time talking to your besties trumps blogging. I did both of those things this week – [...]
As you might expect, the older I get the more I care about my home and reflecting my personal style in my house. Just like my clothing, I like clean lines, simple, elegant touches and a little something that is "me" in each room in my house. I think that it's important for anyone's home [...]
Hey Dolls (and Guys)!! It's been AGES, I know. I'm not making excuses, but I will totally clue you in on what's going on . . . Since we were last together I've scoped the runways of couture fashion week, interviewed, landed and started a new job AND packed up one third of my house [...]

"It's just one thing that got me trippin'!" - Amerie, "Just One Thing" I am a firm believer that you don't need much to make an outfit speak for itself. The old adage holds true; the devil is in the details. Which is why I believe that everyone woman should have a statement ring or two [...]
"It's just one thing that got me trippin'!" - Amerie, "Just One Thing" Personally, I love sending (and receiving) printed invitations to parties and events. Yes, Evite is cool and Paperless Post is even better, but, there is something about opening up an envelope with an invitation that makes me (and hopefully others) feel special. I [...]
"It's just one thing that got me trippin'" - Amerie, "Just One Thing" I've been known to say that each day is like a game of dress-up and it is my most favorite game. And it's true. Every morning when I wake I decide which version of myself I want to be. Not on some split [...]
