I realized I haven’t done one of these posts recently. Since my summer road trip, I haven’t been as click-happy with my phone and haven’t captured as many looks but I’ll try to be better about that. I love when I see what people wear for their day-to-day, and since a lot of what I… Continue Reading What I Wore Off the Blog

It used to be a place just for serious iPhone photographers and where a lot… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #70
Welcome to the latest edition of Things Alison Bought and Whether or Not They Suck. I’ve been putting this off because I don’t have pretty photos, but I hope my words and stock photos can paint a picture in your mind of the awesomeness or awfulness of these different items.

It’s been a bit since my first post about our summer road trip, but that’s typical for the end of the summer.
