Today, I embark on the Whole Wardrobe Challenge, or WWC for short. Basically, I plan to wear each item in my wardrobe, deciding daily whether to keep or release each item and not shopping again until I have worn every item I own. You name it, and I’m wearing it: The good. The bad. Even
Canadian Tuxedo
I know my bestie Clinton (Kelly, of What Not To Wear fame) writes in his book Oh No She Didn’t! that I shouldn’t wear a Canadian tuxedo. But, damn it, chambray is not denim so I’m moving full speed ahead on this navy chambray shirt + dark skinny jeans combo. I heart it. It’s my
Spotlight on Single Moms
My hometown’s new magazine, Haute Life, is featuring single mothers for its April issue and guess who is going to be included? Yep! I’m honored to be included in the lifestyle zine run by two creative local businesswomen, and I’m psyched that they are going to showcase some strong mamas. I’m also honored and psyched,
New Music Tuesday: SXSW Indie Hits
This punchy little playlist from Spotify instantly uplifted me from my bummed snow-in-March mood to a more upbeat sprint-is-so-close feel. In other words, half full instead of half empty. I especially enjoyed lead-in song Hands Down by the Greeting Committee, which connected me with like-sounding non SXSW band Saint Move. Saint Move being a California-based
Another Way to Style Joggers
When I included my grey joggers in this challenge, I guess I didn’t realize I also had included that pair of grey jeans you’ve read about over and over again. It’s a bit of a challenge (pun intended) to wear grey jeans and grey joggers back-to-back in an interesting way. But I think I’ve done
Buffalo Plaid Spring
The weather is damn weird today. As in, snow accumulation on tulips weird. I would have taken a photo but it started melting too fast. And I don’t have time for that. But you can imagine it, right? (I guess you’ll have to because there’s no other choice.) And because the weather was weird, so
Tight Little Turtleneck
I felt like I had a midget strangling me slowly all day long, guys. If you couldn’t guess, I’ll confirm that that means I wore my ribbed turtleneck. It looked sexy. My neck was warm. but I’m pretty sure I need a new turtleneck. One that isn’t quite so tight. Let me be clear, it
Shapeless Jean Shirtdress with Leggings
OMG that title sounds horrible but that’s exactly what I wore today. My jean shirtdress from JCrew is definitely shapeless, but not in a bad way. More in a Mary-Kate and Ashley way. And I love it. It’s not only nursing friendly (a must these days), but it’s versatile because I’m pretty sure it can
Easy Shirtdress
Yesterday was warm and I had several video chats, so I dressed up a bit and wore my chiffon shirtdress. I love the ease of a dress. You instantly look more polished, and all you did was put on one item. Bonus if the item is a chiffon shirtdress and you work from home, since
Plain (and Boring) White Tee
As I’ve said before, I love a good tee-jeans-flats combo. But white after a long, sunless winter is not my idea of a good time. Well, it doesn’t flatter me on screen, that’s for sure. I had a video chat today and, in addition to a terrible haircut that has taken all the sunkissed, beachy
