Everything I Read in September + October 2018

It's a been a minute since I have done a book roundup! Actually, it's been about two months. I'm sorry about that, but I'm *obviously* not going to neglect you forever. Instead, I have combined everything I read in the months of September and October (as well as one I finished in November). Starred books were gifted by Random House! WORTH BUYING: There were a few books that I read this fall that were totally worth the purchase. a simple…

Fall 2018 Style Guide

So far, the only indication fall is among us are the changing leaves. I don’t know about you, but I've been sweating my booty off in NYC. It’s okay though, because my weather app predicts a chilly weekend + i’m here to save you with your Fall shopping list. This year we’re really into menswear, western style + animal print-- basically we’re channeling the 80’s minus the hairspray. I’m all for over-sized blazers, cowboy boots + unexpected colors. Pink for…

Finally FitFam: My Health Journey

When asked my spirit animal, I playfully say that I identify as a sloth; because I’m cute, lazy and most people like me. The thing is, I really like myself. My life is pretty amazing. Everything is in line; from my job to my boyfriend. As a blogger, I’m required to be an oversharer. So you probably already knew this. However, one thing that i’ve remained a little reluctant to share on social media is my workout regime. Don’t worry,…

Not Your Basic Bachelorette

This weekend we celebrated my cousin & BFF Melissa's bachelorette party! She writes and models regular for Mack in Style, so even if you don't know her personally, you're probably familiar with her! To say that it was the most extra, Instagram worthy celebration would be the understatement of the century. In collaboration with Melissa, who wanted to participate in the planning of her bach, I organized a bachelorette weekend in the Southampton, New York. I'm not going to lie,…

Everything I Read in August 2018

August was a rough month for me. On a personal level, it was fantastic! I spent a lot of time with friends, family & didn't spend a single weekend at home in New York. All this travel provided me with plenty of time to read. Who doesn't want to spend their summer in a beach chair with a book? I was blessed enough to have time to read six books last month. Unfortunately, I read two books that gave me…

The Rules Do Not Always Apply

Most women will tell you that fashion rules are outdated. You don't have to match your leathers, your metals, and WHO CARES if you pair navy with black? Despite this, many of us are reluctant to break the #1 rule of fashion "no white after Labor Day." Well ladies, rules are meant to be broken! Especially this one. Now I am NOT endorsing your ripped white skinnies, wedges and a floral cold-shoulder top for Fall! That would be insane, and…

11 Things You Didn’t Know About Me

As of this month I have been blogging for seven years! Even though I have made it my goal to stay completely transparent on the internet, I still have a lot I haven't shared with the world. Unless you follow me on twitter, in which case this may not be news. Since Mack in Style was started in 2011, i'm going to share 11 facts I haven't mentioned on my blog before! I have spent my free time this summer…

Shopbop Summer Sale + Seven Years

As of last week, I have been blogging for seven years. To be honest, I've felt a bit uninspired this summer. I started my blog to tell my peers how they should dress themselves. But I fell in love with blogging about relationships. The last time I was truly passionate about this blog was when I was dragging dudes who did me wrong. I'm just being honest! Writing about books has definitely sparked a new passion within me. I'm obsessed with…

Everything I Read in July 2018

As you all know, i’m a huge reader. Recently, I've spent my lunch breaks sitting in Gantry State Park with a book and a kombucha. This has been helpful for both my summer tan and my sanity.  Anyways, since my last review one month ago, I’ve finished five books + started a new one. As always, I ask that if you do decide to purchase on of these books, that you please do so through the links I provide. I’ll receive…

Queen of Boycotts

If you truly know me, you know that I boycott a lot of brands. I’m stubborn, and once I cut something off I stick to it. I boycott companies for a number of reasons, but usually it's because of my political views or human rights violations. After reading this I don't expect you to change your purchasing habits, but I hope that you become more aware of them. How you spend your money is your way of validating a brand.…
