I’ve been blogging a long time–almost eight years to be exact. Blogging has evolved and reinvented itself a few times along the way, from Xanga diaries to Tumblrs to bloggers who don’t even have a proper blog (just an instagram channel), there’s everything under the sun. Each year, I sit back and think about my […]
First of all, if you follow me on instagram and saw my questions about paint colors and answered, thank you! I can’t believe how many of you have such vast interior paint knowledge but I had so much fun reading all your responses and I still have a bunch to go through! (I am now […]
Welcome to this week’d rendition of real outfit recap (check out last week’s here). It has been just about the coldest week ever here in Chicago…and I know many of you have been feeling it, too (snow in Florida and Charleston…what?!)!

I’m getting these earrings, snagging a pair of classic denim […]
If I’m being completely honest, this holiday season hasn’t felt very merry. We’ve been in the process of (trying) to buy a house and experienced some heartbreak, long days of searching, long days of work, and long bouts of sickness (if you saw my IG stories, you know what’s up). Christmas is in four days […]
Winter is fun until January. Once the holidays are over, it’s back to reality and back to three more months of blistering cold.
