Grey is definitely a great definition of my mood post-holiday crash. January always feels like fresh new start but gone are the vibrant colors and feelings from the holidays. Because my mood and surroundings dictate my wardrobe, I’m feeling those moody, grey vibes. Plus, it’s a no-brainer piling on the shades of all grey when […]
I’m not a huge fan of making life changing New Years’ resolutions. While I believe that people are capable of making huge, overnight life changes for themselves, I more so believe that the small changes we make are what produce the greatest longterm effects. I don’t like to be set up to fail and making […]
I turn 34 tomorrow, on November 21st and I can’t believe how fast it’s snuck up on me. Once I started to think about my age along with what happened while I was 33, I became overwhelmed. 34 seems so…grown-up–so, mid-30s.

If you have any questions you want me to answer, go ahead and leave a comment–nothing (I think…) if off-limits. Have a wonderful weekend! How did you manage the transition […]
An all season outfit is the best kind. It could be summer, spring–ok not winter in Chicago, but winter i a warmer climate–and also, fall. It’s made of basics that you can wear almost anytime of year and just works in most climates (again, except a frozen tundra). That’s why I love jeans with stripes […]
Do you ever wonder what bloggers or people in this digital influence space want out of this career long-term? Or maybe you’re a blogger yourself and am wondering what’s next for you. I’m always so interested in people’s 10-year plans (probably because it slightly scares me to think so critically about the future) and because […]
Belt bag, fanny pack, hip pouch – what do you call it? Basically, this baby is a hands-free bag and with the 90s revival happening as of late, they’ve been all the rage. I had one growing up (who didn’t) and definitely didn’t think I’d be rocking a nylon one again as an adult. The […]
