Anonymous asked: Hi Sara! I unfortunately need to wear a belt daily to keep my pants from falling down. I can't seem to find a belt that falls somewhere between being too plain or too decorative. Any recommendations for belts that are functional but at least sort of stylish?

Anonymous asked: Hey Sara! Quick question: I've heard most starter positions in the fashion industry are maybe 20k a year. How does one survive in New York with such low pay? I want to move sometime after college, but I can't imagine how I'll be able to live there, especially while trying to pay off student loans. Thanks!

flatteryoconnor asked: Sara, I need advice. You deal with really, really cold weather, right? The extreme chill where I live necessitates Uggs, and I treasure the warmth they provide, but I'm the first to admit their hideousness. Does an inexpensive, fashionable, warm alternative exist?

Anonymous asked: I am going to my first big NYE event. However, much to my dismay, it turns out to be an all white event. Yikes! What do you recommend wearing for a curvy girl like myself? My fashion future is in your hands!

Anonymous asked: Hello beautiful! Browsing through all the questions you've been asked before, I feel like you don't really get that much beauty related questions. Since I believe fashion and beauty are correlative, I would love to know your daily beauty routine and specific products you regularly use. What type of skin do you have? What foundation do you use? Fave lipstick for Winter? This is probably...

truth thursday: madewell

dailybranflakes asked: Hey Sara! So, I've been wanting a cape for a few years now, but can never find one I'm totally happy with -- either because the design boring or it's far too spendy. Right now I'm eyeing a tan wool one from American Apparel, but at $170, I am a bit unsure I should take the plunge. Do you have any suggestions for cheaper, but similar options? Thanks!

Anonymous asked: It's such a relief to see a curvy girl make it in the fashion world. As an average-sized woman hoping to break into the waif-thin fashion world, I am relieved to see that not EVERYONE is quite so thin. Blogs and magazines lead you to believe otherwise. So thank you, thank you. (You don't need to respond or anything, I just wanted to say thanks!!)
