Cultivating confidence through fashion and style
YCS Style Diary: Fall Transitions By Erika, Resident Fashionista September is one of those odd months. You never know if it's going to be 90 degrees (like it was here in Philly last week) or 60 degrees (like it was this morning!). It always feels too early to put away ALL of my summer clothes [...]
Erika, Resident Fashionista In Monday's Trend Report Nia shared one of the season's (and past few month's) hottest looks: denim on denim. Lots of people think they can't pull this trend off but I'm here to show you that you can!! The easiest way to do it is by pairing two different shades of denim [...]
By Erika, Resident Fashionista Editor's Note: While YCS gets back in the groove and we continue our hunt for an intern we're going to scale back our posting schedule.

Spring is a time full of color and my wardrobe tends to reflect just that! This year I am going to attempt to [...]
By Erika, Resident Fashionista Here on the East Coast we have endured one of the most brutal winters in recent memory and I am anxiously counting down the days until it is officially spring (three)!! All month long, YCS is getting you guys ready for spring, and what better way to prep for the warmer [...]
By Erika, Resident Fashionista For a while I was hesitant to jump on the chambray bandwagon. Although I found it super cute on others, I thought it would make me look like my eight-year-old (but still totally adorable) self. Plus, all the plus-sized chambray tops that I saw were so . . . extra (for [...]
By Erika, Resident Fashionista Often times I'll get asked to share looks I've posted on the YCS Instagram account on the blog.
