Can you tell that I’ve been watching a lot of Wednesday on Netflix? Ok, maybe not. The theme is subtle, and I do wear all black throughout the season. However, in my mind, this outfit is festive for the show, even if it is a bit ordinary. At this point in the season, I feel…

Travel Shoe Upgrade
I went on vacation at the beginning of the summer and made a critical error. I exclusively packed aspirational shoes. In this scenario, aspirational foot wear looked like shoes that I’ve broken in, but are not necessarily comfortable for long distance walking. Of course, on my trip, there was plenty of long distance walking. I’m…
Summer’s Last Hurrah
Normally I’d be upset about the summer heat encroaching on my favorite season, but this year is different. Just as I was lamenting the loss of summer weather, the hot temperatures have returned for one final run. I’m taking advantage of summer’s last hurrah by styling a few seasonal favorites for this transitional weather. I…
A Classic Shoe
I think it’s clear by now that I’ve happily embraced suit shorts as a key part of my summer style. It’s always a surprise how quickly I can come around to liking a particular closet item. I went from feeling intimidated by these shorts, to pairing them with everything that I can find. Although the…
Another Dress Another Sneaker
Last Wednesday’s outfit inspired me so much that I thought I’d have today’s look feature another dress and another sneaker. I don’t want my style to necessarily become redundant, but with a formula this simple, it’s hard not to rewear different iterations of the same thing. I’ve always thought that I don’t have a particular…
April Favorites 2025
To me, May has always felt like the unofficial start of summer. Now that it’s here, to say I’m giddy would be an understatement! I feel like I’m in High School Musical 2, watching the clock, chanting, “summer, summer, summer!” And yet, I’d be remiss to ignore April completely. I am happy to see April in…
Under Pressure
Sometimes I feel like I can draft up outfits left and right. And other times, it feels like pulling teeth. If I’m being completely honest, today’s outfit is the product of more than a little style frustration. I’ve been putting so much pressure on myself to create the perfect, best, most, kinds of looks, that…
A Little College Nostalgia
I went to a local coffee shop last week and was immediately struck by an overwhelming sense of nostalgia. The entire vibe of the shop reminded me of one I used to frequent back in my college days, and it had me fondly reflecting on that time in my life. Particularly, my college fashion. When…
Same Outfit Different Day
I have never been shy about being an outfit repeater. It’s practical, it’s realistic, and on days when you just don’t have any outfit inspiration, recycling old looks feels like a soothing balm. Today’s look is reflective of today’s mood. A little understated, a little quiet, and extremely comfortable. It’s a chilly February Monday and…
In a Sea of Neutrals, Choose Bold
It seems that adding color to my wardrobe will be a forever goal. Normally I’d like to think that I’m a pretty colorful person, but my wardrobe begs to differ. Even so, as much as I naturally gravitate towards a neutral palette, there is just something about a little pop of color. Especially during these…
