I may be a fashion blogger but that doesn’t mean I have my act together. I always have coffee spilled on my blouse, regularly end up with lipstick on my teeth, and my bruised legs tell the tale of how I am constantly walking into or tripping over things. I have tried so many self-tanners…
It’s that hot pink Banana Republic pantsuit again! Going through my archives I see I purchased this suit early in 2017.
