Someone pinch me. I am almost two weeks into my new job and I am still in a state of shock.

We have clients across all boards - from ready to wear, to fine jewelry, to shoes & swim. 

Some of my favorites include Anita Ko, James Jeans, Schutz, Rene Caovilla, Phillips House, BaubleBar, and many more.

Trend Alert: {falling for} Leather

Leather, pleather, whatever. 

Leather is a must-have this fall season; and let me just tell you, I would wear something with leather every single day if I could. Take a look at a few of my leather leaders.

The Boots with the {W}edge

I just can't help myself, I am "falling" for wedged ankle boots this season.

I love my new wedged biker boots (as seen above), they are the perfect accessory to any outfit - casual enough for the day and fierce, or shall I say {w}edgy enough for the night. With wedged ankle boots, you can't go wrong. What else is on the list? Check out below!

Fearless Fall Finds

Fall, what a magical time of the year; the leaves changing, the air changing, the fashion changing...

Fall is hands down my favorite season to dress for {especially in New York} because it allows me to play around with my wardrobe, mixing all sorts of fun pieces together. These are my go-to accessories for fall.

{Fall Finds}

The classic cargo jacket is not too heavy, yet not too light, so it is perfect for the cool breeze that the crisp fall air provides. My favorite is the Ohara by Rag & Bone. If you are feeling daring, pair your trendy cargo with biker boots, or keep it safe with a classic ballet flat. In my opinion, you can never go wrong with gold. These Anito Ko earrings are the perfect everyday stud, and not to mention they are to die for! Mix up this grunge look with a dainty necklace such as this Jennifer Zeuner swirly initial necklace. What to wear underneath? Who cares! Nobody will be able to look past your killer accessories to find out.

{Hi, Bonjour, Hola, Ciao}

inspiration for this here blog.

A big hello, and a big welcome to Harmony&Hem! I am very anxious and excited to get this baby up and running, as it is something I have been contemplating doing for quite some time now.

    It wasn't until my recent move to the City of Lights (yes New York City!) that I really felt the urge to sit down and get the ball  rolling. This city has so much to offer in every aspect. From the        culture, to the fashion, to the food, to the music... the list goes on and       on; it would be shameful not to document and share my experiences and inspiration with those who so seek it. So that is just what I plan on doing! This is your one-stop-shop for all things fashion, all things music, do-it-yourselfers, and so much more.

To start, I'll tell you a bit about myself.

The name is Amanda. I am a recent transplant from Texas, in which I was born and raised (and I have just as much pride as every other Texan, y'all). I recently graduated from The University of Texas at Austin where I got my BS in public relations with a minor in business. I moved to the City that Never Sleeps (yes, it's true - no one ever sleeps here!) in July to pursue a career in the fabulous world of fashion. I am currently working as a freelance fashion assistant at Vanity Fair Magazine, and I am absolutely loving it. I hope you venture back sooner rather than later!

All for now,
