Holidays are the one occasion lately where I have the excuse to buy a new item of clothing. Since I’m still working from home most of the time, I don’t need as many work outfits and my daily outfit consists of leggings and a sweater. I’ve had fun browsing online for a cute top to…
If you told me one day I’d be using beauty products with marshmallow in them, I’d probably laugh in your face (and suddenly crave a smore, let’s be honest).
