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 [...]
Fall is not here yet, no matter what Starbucks says, so I'm trying to dress accordingly. This time of year, when the humidity drops and the sun starts getting lower in the sky, it takes all my strength to remember that September afternoons still regularly top 80 degrees, and it's not smart to pack away [...]
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 [...]
Jumpsuits have never held that much allure for me, even as they've continued to rise in popularity over the last several years. As a petite woman with curves, I just assume that the waist will be too low, the hips will be too tight, and the hem will be too long. Jumpsuits, in my mind, [...]

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 [...]
It's Fashion Revolution Week, which means that consumers of fashion all over the world are asking #WhoMadeMyClothes and demanding more transparency from big brands that historically have disclosed very little. I'm lucky enough to work with a lot of brands that make it a point to be transparent with their customer base, and today, I'm [...]
Tonight I'm bringing you some wisdom from the eve of my third business trip in as many weeks: I cannot do All The Things. I am busy and stressed out to the point where I sometimes google "deep breathing GIFs" and then breathe along with a pretty GIF for five minutes until I'm no longer [...]
Not a lot on the blog this week because I was staffing an important meeting at work over the last couple of days. In terms of getting dressed, big meetings and conferences are always fun opportunities for me. I know a lot of people hate getting dressed up in business formal attire for a meeting, [...]
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 [...]
