wardrobe science
After an unseasonably chilly beginning of the month, it's finally starting to feel like summer in DC! Today I put together the simplest outfit possible for a day of work-from-home, dog walking, dinner cooking, and homework. I think that this tank top and jeans would work as a great base for a ton of different [...]
I've been blogging about personal style for almost two years, but I don't think I really hit my stride getting dressed until the late spring of this year. I took a look through all my outfit photos from 2019 in preparation for this post, but I didn't see even one that I really liked until [...]
Today I'm excited to be writing a good old fashioned Everlane review. The item in question? The ReWool Italian Overcoat, a gorgeous double-breasted coat that I would say is the crown jewel of Everlane's new ReWool line of recycled wool garments. I've been pinning long camel coats on my secret fashion Pinterest board for years. [...]
In the last few weeks, my outfits have fallen into a lazy summer rhythm. I tend toward the same colors, shapes, and textures each day, and getting dressed is uneventful. It's been good to lean on that at a time when my day job is busier than ever. My wardrobe is pretty much dialed in, [...]
When I first got into minimalist fashion, back before I was blogging my feelings about it on a semi-weekly basis, I tried an experiment. I picked out the plainest, most innocuous black dress in my closet and committed to wearing it for a full week. It was a fun little project, and it taught me [...]
Hey friends! I've been offline for a while, but today I'm back with a good old-fashioned Everlane review. This month, I got the opportunity to try out the new Short-Sleeve Crew Bodysuit, which I was grateful for because my old black short-sleeve tee (purchased at H&M a lifetime ago) finally gave up the ghost. This [...]
This article originally appeared on The Minimalist Wardrobe on December 8, 2018. The Minimalist Wardrobe is no longer publishing blog articles and has removed its prior blog content from its site, so I will be posting all my previous TMW contributions on Goblin Shark over the coming weeks. I like to call myself a wardrobe [...]
This project has forced me to do something I almost never do: get dressed on a Saturday. Usually I spend the majority of the day in my pajamas, or transition into my home-clothes (aka different pajamas) around 3pm, but yesterday I decided it might be fun to explore an athleisure vibe with my cotton-cashmere sweater [...]
I have historically been very anti-trend. It's not that I don't like new things, but more that I'm not interested in investing in something that isn't going to be in style anymore in two seasons. Even when I get things for free (which is, admittedly, pretty often), I try to choose classic pieces in neutral [...]
How about some classic wardrobe science for today's post? Part of my pursuit of a minimalist wardrobe involves figuring out how to take one item and style it in as many different ways as possible. And this isn't just styling for styling's sake - I actually wear everything that I post here in my daily [...]
