A couple weeks ago, I brought my denim skirt out of hiding. I have very, very mixed feelings about it. Because when I tried it on in the thrift store, it felt really nostalgic and cute. Then I searched outfit ideas on Pinterest, and I was like oh yeah! I can definitely rock these looks.…

Fall Capsule Wardrobe... (?)
The other night (I can’t believe I’m admitting this to you guys) I went into my Instagram feed and started shame-scrolling through all my old posts, finding things about myself that I hated. Your style is not that great. Your hair looked better before. Your legs look so chunky in that one. Sloppy. Lame. Your…
Summer 30x30 Wardrobe Challenge
Time, once again, for a wardrobe challenge! I finally made peace with my closet for the Spring, but feelings have been creeping back in. The ugh, I have nothing to wear type of feelings. I’ve been immensely discontent with my closet the last few weeks and I know exactly why. Hint: it’s never about the…
Spring Style Challenge: 10x10 Mini Capsule
I have felt really challenged by my clothes lately. Almost 2 years ago, I made the decision to veto any and all fast-fashion purchases (which is essentially cheap clothes made quickly to satisfy a place in the market for the most up-to-date, current trends). But not only that, I wanted to cut back on purchases overall,…
Capsule Wardrobe Update
Last September, I made a promise to myself to stop buying clothes that were… a waste. No more impulse sale buys, no more cheap junk, no more fast fashion. Once I made a firm decision to do that, I realized I didn’t really even need a seasonal capsule wardrobe anymore. It slowed me down SO…
Winter Capsule Wardrobe
Looking back, I realized I never updated you guys on my Fall Capsule. Turns out, I don’t think that many people cared, so that’s a… relief? I guess? Since California had so little change in the weather anyway, I didn’t really have to worry about making many adjustments. I wore my Summer Capsule with a little…
Fall Capsule Wardrobe 2015: The True Cost
This post is not my big Fall wardrobe reveal. This post is merely to tell you that more big changes are coming for me. Changes that I’m scared to commit to, but know are necessary. I had mentioned in a previous post that I wasn’t sure whether I’d be doing a capsule wardrobe, a categorized…
Wardrobe Shmardrobe
Greetings from my couch! Since I’ve basically been wearing pajamas all week and I have no photos or confessions that don’t involve kid poop, I thought I’d write some thoughts on the upcoming season and my plans for a Fall wardrobe. I use the term “plan” very loosely, as there isn’t one. But let’s talk…
Summer Capsule Wardrobe Update
We are more than 1/2 way through the summer season and I kind of can’t believe it. School starts Monday! Wait, whaaaaat?! As far as clothes are concerned, however, this doesn’t mean a whole lot. Plenty of hot days still lie ahead of us here in Southern California. September is usually a scorcher! It might cool off by…
