Real Outfit Recap

Well, hey there!  How was your week?  I feel like it was one of those weeks where I tried to be really productive and just didn’t quite get there.  Sometimes I and multitask–and sometimes I’m terrible at it.  I saw on The Makerista’s instagram that she sets 15 minute timers and it helps her focus […]

Transitioning From the City to the Suburbs

The day has come and gone already–we moved.  It was not a decision we took lightly, either.  How do you leave the city for the suburbs?  We hemmed, we hawed, we thought about moving to another state completely (didn’t work out), but ultimately, we decided to move to the Chicago suburbs.  “Moving to the suburbs” […]
