										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lauren Hutton once offered that “fashion is what you’re offered four times a year by designers. And style is what you choose.” When you opt to wear the gold instead of silver earrings, ditch the heels for a pair of tennis shoes, or add a hat to your finished look, you are showcasing your individual style.</p>
<p>Your style could be comfortable, daring, over-the-top or embrace a quiet sophistication. Whatever it is, we challenge you to tell YOUR story. Our pieces are low effort and high fashion. We opt for functionality and low effort pieces that are remain classy and transitional. And every once in a while we throw in an unexpected detail because what&#8217;s life without a life fun #SoWearTheDress #MaxKoya</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>About a year ago, Marie Claire released a spot-on selection of fashion icons. The team and I reviewed each picture and unanimously agreed with the well-curated list of stars and their exceptional sense of style. The article was titled, &#8220;32 of the Biggest Style Icons of All Time.&#8221; Yes, you read that correctly—<em>of all time.</em> But how far back into the annals of history must one go to truly honor style icons? Should we casually abandon the eras when men wore heels and women wouldn’t step out without a corset? Should we overlook the days of animal skin and bark cloth?</p>
<p>Let’s skip the dance with semantics and get to the heart of my point: style is within reach for all of us. A subtle gold slipper, a metallic stud, opting for a chignon with a strapless dress—these are the decisions that, over time, define a style icon. You too can join that list.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Love Always,</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our bodies can carry about twenty percent of our body&#8217;s weight, easily. We sit, stand, dance, and swim in these lovely vessels. Why we spend so much time worrying about physical make-up like height, colour,  and numbers on a scale continues to perplexes us all. How about we challenge the concept of perfect and embrace the strengths of our individual soul containers- just as it is today. After all, we are enough&#8230;we&#8217;ve always been enough. So, wear the dress!</p>
