My name is Monica

The girl behind the blog

Hi, I’m Monica, a fashion and style expert and founder of the online fashion and beauty publication Vain Affair.

I’ve always adored fashion and the endless amount of creativity that goes behind picking the perfect outfit. The colors, fabrics, silhouettes, and cuts all fascinated me. It’s amazing how the little details can transform an outfit.

My love for fashion always felt like a guilty pleasure. I would scroll through the lastest trendy clothing sites for hours trying to find that perfect piece (at a matching perfect price). 😉 I’ve always had great fashion recommendations for friends and family, but I really want to share my thoughts to a wider audience. Thus, Vain Affair was born! I hope you enjoy reading and come back soon.

I have been quoted 5+ times in online lifestyle publications, such as Best Life Online, Real Simple, and Mass Appeal Magazine for my fashion and styling advice. If you’re interested in a collaboration please contact me at [email protected].

As Featured On

get to know me!

I’m a bunny mom! I have a white mini-rex bunny and he’s the sweetest thing on earth. His favorite treat is clementine slices.

I love listening to podcasts! My favorite one at the moment are On Purpose by Jay Shetty, Not Alone by Valeria Lipovetsky, Life with Mariana. and The Skinny Confidential.

I’m obsessed with barre workouts. I love how it taught me to listen to my own body and go at my own pace. I feel stronger and more at peace.

I’m a freelance web designer, but I’m also multi-disciplinary as well. I have graphic design and video editing experience.

I'm also a commercial model (mostly beauty and progressionals)!

A bag of sour cream and onions chips is the key to my heart 😀
