  • Fall Staple – The Blazer

    November 11, 2020 / 0 Comments

    I guess you can say I’m a blazer fanatic. I have a good amount of them, but I have never added a houndstooth plaid print one to my wardrobe before. When I saw this one, I knew I had to get it, but the original price was a little too much for me. I really despise buying pieces at regular price, this is why I don’t mind waiting it out for a sale. So I kindly added it to my β€œsaved for later” list and just like that it was on sale.

Although summer was a blur, I’m using this time to make sure I’m bringing all the fun fall looks to you! Next up is another sweater dress look, but this time with a pop of color. ​

  • 7 Fall Fedora Hats

    October 12, 2020 / 0 Comments

    I remember just last year I was skeptical on even buying a fedora hat. Now I'm having so much fun styling this one and the black fedora I featured in the Spooky Season Vibes blog post. For me, hats have always been a fun accessory piece when styling an outfit, especially dad hats. I'm happy that I found another hat style to fall in love with! So that you can share in my new love for fedora hats, I'm linking seven of them that are perfect for fall!

    October 5, 2020 / 3 Comments

    Happy October! What I love most about October is that it’s spooky season which means marathons of scary movies and if we weren’t dealing with coronavirus then I would definitely be finding the next haunted house/trail to go to! So to celebrate the arrival of the spooky season, I wanted to somewhat channel the fashion style from the witches of the Coven season of American Horror Story β€” my favorite season!

    September 7, 2020 / 1 Comment

    Happy Monday! I can’t believe that it’s been four months since I blogged! Man, time has been flying ever since COVID-19 decided to turn our lives upside down. But just like everyone else I’ve been finding ways to keep my peace, protect my energy and stay positive. Since Dom and I moved in April to our new apartment I’ve been finding my peace in decorating and making our beautiful space feel more and more like home. I wanted to share our decorating journey thus far!

  • Feeling Unmotivated?

    May 14, 2020 / 0 Comments

    A few days ago I posted to the blog for the first time since February 22, 2020. You may be asking why so long? To be honest, I felt unmotivated and unfulfilled. I just couldn’t find the inspiration to write or create content, not when so many of us are experiencing so many different emotions at this time. But lately, I started to get out of that mindset and began to think differently. My current thoughts are β€” My content could inspire the next person to create or help another to temporarily get their mind off the negativity in the world.

  • Quarantine Life: The Organizing Edition

    May 5, 2020 / 0 Comments

    It’s day 47 of my quarantine life and I have to say it’s been pretty interesting for us to say the least. For starters we moved into a new apartment during a pandemic and it was the most frustrating experience, but we made it! To be honest the worst part were the delays of moving due to Covid-19 and the move-in experience as a whole. Let’s just say Dom and I will be hiring movers the next time around! But there’s some good from moving during a stay at home order β€” like having so much free time to unpack. Also, having a new space and the combination of quarantining…
