wardrobe science
Not a lot to tell you guys about today's outfit except that I wore it because turtleneck + high waisted pants + basic pumps is always a winning look, and also because I could stuff all of these items into my gym bag with reasonable assurance that they wouldn't get wrinkled before work. We started [...]
I learned a very important wardrobe lesson in 2018: blazers are better than cardigans. To see some definitive proof of this statement, please look at the above and below outfits, which I wore to work today and yesterday, respectively. Paired with blazers, those outfits just work. Try to imagine them instead with cardigans - not [...]
I've been on vacation from work since December 20th, and if we're being 100% honest, I've probably only gotten dressed a few times since then. At home, I live in loungewear - usually black leggings and a comfortable tee, flannel, or fleece. Being on vacation was actually kind of eye opening for me because I [...]
You can learn a lot about yourself by posting a picture of your outfit on the Internet every day for a year. I know, because I did. This was a pivotal year for me – this space may not look like a lot, but to me, it’s a chronicle of everything. I’ve accomplished a lot, [...]

Hey everyone! Long time no see. You probably noticed that I promised you a bunch of blog posts over the last month, and instead, I wrote none. If it made you sad, I'm sorry. It makes me sad, too. I love Instagram (where I still post more-or-less daily), but this is my favorite space. This [...]
One of the biggest topics of conversation around the ethical fashion water cooler these days is this: why does all ethical fashion look the same? Whitney Bauck at Fashionista wrote a great piece on this last week. In her article, Whitney talks about the consequences of ethical fashion subscribing to a single aesthetic, most notably, [...]
Can they really go #alldamnday? Earlier this month, Everlane released its brand new Day Boot, cousin of the popular Day Heel, Day Glove, and Day Mule. These shoes are some of Everlane's best sellers - the claim being that each style is comfortable enough to wear all day - whatever life may throw at you [...]
