So it has happened. Trump was sworn in today as the 45th President of the United States.
Amidst nationwide disappointment and civil unrest (are y’all watching the protest right now?), the main ladies looked pretty phenomenal, with forever our First Lady Michelle Obama in Jason Wu and Melania Trump in baby blue Ralph Lauren:
Michelle later on covered up in a coat, also by Jason Wu.
You know what, guys? It’s a sad, disappointing time in history. I honestly can’t believe Trump is officially President and I’m wondering how long he will last? At any rate, hopefully style can add a bit of brightness to this dark day.
In addition to being a bomb event space, the Mezzanine also has adjoining offices called the BOND Collective, which are pegged for the fashion entrepreneur. BOND Collective is currently looking to expand their women and minority entrepreneur membership so it definitely is an inclusive office space.
The space has loads of lovely aesthetic elements, including clear walls, punchy pillows, and a comfortable shared office space. The Brooklyn location also boasts a production studio perfect for photo/video shoots and a sound booth for recording.
If you’re running your own business or startup, but still need structure in your work environment, BOND Collective is a great choice! They offer coworking desks, dedicated desks and private offices. If you want to impress clients during meetings, each location is also equipped with stunning conference rooms and phone booths.

For those of us who lived for Tommy Hilfiger and Baby Phat goose downs in the late 90s and early 2000s, the revival of the puffer jacket as the go-to look for street style swag is a breath of nostalgic air. Get a few ideas on how to rock this 90s inspired trend with today’s style inspirations.
For a rocker chic vibe, pair a distressed band tee with black high-waist skinny jeans.
Style the look with a black puffer jacket, reflector leather ankle boots, and a red tote bag.
Soften up a foil sweatshirt and navy leather biker pants with a pale pink satin puffer jacket.
Add a navy tote, beige suede wedge boots, and matching accessories for a chic winter look.
Pair casual sweatpants with a long-sleeve bodysuit and a fur-embellished puffer jacket.
Complete the look with a pair of lace-up ankle boots, a suede handbag, and oversized sunglasses.
Lastly, opt for casual cool with a cropped hooded sweatshirt offset by a pair of black leather biker pants and high top sneakers.

Need a new delicious restaurant to add to your roster when you’re in NYC? Look no further than Sessanta, located at 60 Thompson street.
FBD Creative Director Kelley and I popped by the Italian eatery last night and sampled several items from the menu, including their crispy brussels sprouts, grilled octopus, burrata, baby gem salad, grilled salmon, fazzoleti pasta with lamb, eggplant parmesan, and prime hangar steak (check the menu here).
The food was BOMB. Bomb. Bomb. The pasta was definitely popping, along with the burrata. Go for the Buttermilk Panna Cotta for dessert.
In addition to the food, the restaurant is beautiful.
