I’m super excited today to be teaming up with VIVAIA, a relatively new footwear company! I’ve been wanting to work with them for a while now, so you can imagine my excitement when I saw an email from their marketing team in my inbox.

Welcome to week three of the new year! I figured it was about time to share another “episode” in my Mask Fashion miniseries, showcasing how to stay safe and stylish throughout this pandemic. I knew I wanted another facemask before heading back to school, so I rummaged through the drawers of my sewing desk and got to work making this zebra print mask. I’m so happy with how it turned out!
