One of my random hidden talents is putting together family holiday photo outfit ideas(and I only say this because previous photographers have told me that I did a good job with the outfits and colors). I enjoy finding the one outfit that acts as the “starter piece” and then finding other outfits that coordinate around…
Every year, J Crew Factory puts out the best holiday clothing collection. Looking back at my outfits from the past few holidays, over half of them had something from J Crew Factory. My go-to is usually a blouse, pants, and some fun jewelry — all of which they excel at (and this year’s collection is…
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…
One of the patterns that’s coming back into style this fall/winter is houndstooth. Houndstooth is described as a “duotone textile pattern characterized by broken checks or abstract four-pointed shapes”.

If you’re looking for the perfect…
One new-to-me brand that I’ve recently seen while browsing Nordstrom is Banjanan.

Banjanan is a sustainable textile brand by Caroline Weller, producing products ranging from women’s dresses to table linens since 2013….
As I get older, I’m buying less and less jewelry — especially the cheap, fast-fashion kind of my youth. Now I tend to find one or two pieces a year that I can add to my collection. Sure, I still love my fun BaubleBar themed earrings, but I’m gravitating more lately towards pieces from Etsy….
I’m the type of person who buys the same item in 4 colors/patterns if it fits me well and looks good on me. It’s my fashion secret-weapon if you will. Stores also discontinue items often or only offer them one season, so if you don’t snatch it up in multiple colors immediately, you’ll never be…
