My outfit posts are going to be a bit sporadic for a while as we work our way out from under the 25 inches of snow we got over the long weekend. Since it was too cold to take photos, I decided instead to share some outfit ideas with you in a slightly different format. Last week when I asked if people were shopping for spring or winter, the response was pretty evenly split down the middle - so ... View the Post
Now & Later: Closet Staples
My outfit posts are going to be a bit sporadic for a while as we work our way out from under the 25 inches of snow we got over the long weekend. Since it was too cold to take photos, I decided instead to share some outfit ideas with you in a slightly different format. Last week when I asked if people were shopping for spring or winter, the response was pretty evenly split down the middle - so I'm going to try to give you a good mix of both until the new season finally arrives. Today I'm ... View the Post
My Monthly Edit
READING I know so many of us made resolutions at the beginning of the year and are focusing on clean eating & regular exercising. Both of which are great! But I've noticed a trend among some of my friends that is so disheartening to me. My friend, Grace, wrote an excellent post about this very topic & it's such a good reminder for us all. As someone who battled an eating disorder for 10 years, I may be a little hyper-sensitive when I'm around others are fixated on their diet & ... View the Post
Steals Under $35
As I mentioned briefly in yesterday's post, I'm going on a self-imposed shopping freeze for the January & February. I've done this for the last several years and it's always a good reminder for me to make the most of what I already own. But, just because I'm not buying any new pieces doesn't mean there aren't some great deals to be found, especially right now when nearly everything is on sale! Below I've created 9 chic outfits using items that are all $35 or less - I tried to keep ... View the Post
Easy Everyday Style
Who remembers back when the point of fashion blogs was simply to showcase what they wore each day? The blogging industry as a whole has evolved so much since it began. Not only has it become grossly over-saturated, but so many are now using professional photographers, floral arrangements & props for elaborate staged photos. It makes me a little sad to see how far removed all of this is from reality. And while there certainly is good money to be made for those focusing on aspirational ... View the Post
January Q&A
Due to the holidays, I inadvertently skipped December's Q&A - so if you sent in a question, I will be getting back to you shortly via email! Thank you to everyone who sent in topics for this month - I hope these are helpful to share here. As always, you can email me directly if you have a styling dilemma or if you need help finding something! Now let's get to those questions: 1) We are heading on a Caribbean cruise in mid-February & I'm having a hard time finding summery ... View the Post
Splurge vs. Save
It's been a while since I've shared one of these round-ups, so I decided to do a little digging & I'm happy to say that I think I found some pretty incredible dupes! In some cases, I think it's worth it to spend more on an item you know you will get tons of wear out of...but when your budget is tight, these affordable styles will give you the same look for less. Let me know if you'd like to see more posts like this in the future or if there is a specific item that you're trying to find a ... View the Post

What I’m Loving Now
Today I'm doing a different type of post & sharing some things I'm loving now - not all of these are fashion & beauty related, but I thought it would be a fun way to highlight my current favorite finds & share some more personal tidbits with you. Let me know in the comments section (or on social media) if you like this type of content - I just might make it a recurring monthly series!

Latest Looks
I thought I would feature a few of my recent outfits that I've posted on social media, but haven't yet shared here. All of these involve some form of layering so hopefully these will help give you ideas for different combinations using pieces that you already have in your closet! First up is this pretty lilac sweater - the cable knit is so warm & cozy and pastels are a huge trend for spring, so this is an excellent transitional piece (I'm also eyeing the pastel colorblock sweaters here ...
