Another 10 x 10 challenge has come and gone! This was my third time participating, and I always get something new out of it. In this article I’m sharing my fall 2018 10 x 10 challenge recap including details of the ten items I included and how I styled them in ten different ways. If

I turned 29 a few days ago. To be honest, it doesn’t feel that different – not as different, anyway, as I expect turning 30 next year will feel. At the same time, looking back on this year makes me realize how much has changed. I quit my job, started working full-time on my blog
I’ve got something a little different for you today. I know that the majority of my audience is women, and my expertise is mainly with women’s capsule wardrobes. I’m no expert when it comes to men’s fashion. However, my boyfriend Jason is always asking me for style advice because of what I do. So I
