This morning, Stevie and I suited up for a long walk… to the Post Office. We’ll call it urban hiking, yes? It was about 4 miles round trip and already pretty warm by 10:30am, so I really wanted to keep it lightweight and comfortable. The Everlane Air Tee is on heavy rotation the past two…
I’m feeling short on words today, but I talk a little about my shopping addiction on Instagram if you happen to visit me there. I will say this outfit makes me feel like I’m in a movie. An unassuming mom type — maybe even a little artsy — getting stuff done around the house in…
Do you even want to hear about styling pleated shorts on a day like this? I don’t know, maybe you’re having a great weekend! It’s such a weird holiday to me. Memorial Day has a lot of nerve to try and kick off summer break while it feels like we’ve already been on summer break…
It definitely sounds more upscale to call a dress “handmade” rather than “homemade”. However, I wanted to be very clear about the distinction. Because when you think about it, all clothes are handmade. We probably don’t acknowledge that fact enough. Whether you pay pennies on the dollar for an outfit from fast fashion brands, or…
I just l-o-v-e LOVE when the weather here in Los Angeles is mild. Today my heart skipped a beat to see that it was in the 70’s and sunny. That means I get to wear jeans! Not that I’m going anywhere, or have anyone to impress. I’m sure Stevie won’t even notice, hmph. But I’ve…
You may already know that Tradlands was one of the first “ethical brands” that I ever purchased. It was back in 2015 when they hit my radar. A few months later, I bought a deeply discounted pink chambray shirt. At the time, their pieces were made in the USA, and what really intrigued me was…
There are certain familiar outfits that hold such special memories, you can remember when you bought them or maybe where you wore them and who you were with. Even though most of them are long gone from my closet by now, I have a few favorite stand-outs in my mind. Being 15 and the first…
Add jumpsuits to the list of things that I can’t get enough of. I used to practically buy them in bulk! I’ve changed my habits there, but I like to think I was an early adapter of jumpsuits and rompers. Embracing those toddler vibes the first chance I got. I’ve owned many over the years,…
When I was planning for my summer capsule, I certainly wasn’t anticipating any rainy day weather. We had lots of rain in April, which was kinda torture during those first few weeks of quarantine. No outside play, no walks — just depressing news and depressing weather on top of it all. But once it cleared…
High rise jeans during quarantine? Ew, what am I trying to prove?? It’s okay guys, they’re stretchy! Admittedly not as stretchy as leggings, which I have been wearing A LOT of lately. But just stretchy enough to justify squeezing my butt into them. The nice weather this morning had me feeling a little excited to…
