I love Universal Standard for their elevated wardrobe essentials available in sizes 00-40, but I also love the brand’s mission to democratize fashion beyond their label. One of the ways Universal Standard does this is by collaborating with designer brands to push them beyond their limited size range. The most recent brand that Universal Standard… Continue Reading Erdem x Universal Standard Review of the Myrtle Denim Jumpsuit
Last week I got the first shot of the Pfizer vaccine and I am so thrilled. My state (Maryland) and especially my county (Prince George’s) has struggled with the vaccine rollout; I was only qualified because of my BMI (which if you follow me on Instagram, you know I find BMI to be bullsh*t) but… Continue Reading What To Wear To Get the Vaccine
Why are so many trenches and raincoats not water-resistant? It’s so hard to find a stylish and functional raincoat, especially if you’re petite. When I checked out Chico’s New Arrivals and saw this floral print petite raincoat (it also comes in regular), I knew I had to try it! This trench-style raincoat from Chico’s isn’t… Continue Reading Floral Petite Raincoat with White Jeans

I like the relaxed fit, the interesting silhouette, the ability to go from silk to sequins to suede to sweatpant material in the same exact type of garment appealed to me.

I’ve put on a denim jacket and it helps, but when doing another… Continue Reading The Blazer That Pulls It All Together

I reached out to Dagne Dover, they sent a bag for my review (here is my first Dagne Dover bag review), and I have been using, loving, and reviewing their… Continue Reading Dagne Dover Epic Crossbody Review

A 100% merino sweater for around $35? And it has 515 ratings with an average of 4 stars? This sweater… Continue Reading Is a $35 Merino Sweater Too Good to Be True?
I shared these pants from the Black woman-owned fashion brand Evryday Jane in my Friday Shop post. These are the kind of pants you buy not because you’re trying to whittle your waist or “flatter your figure” but because they are unique and fun and architectural while also being super comfy. Oh, and I have… Continue Reading Evryday Jane Nia Volume Pants
Back in May (which feels like a lifetime ago) I created an at home capsule wardrobe featuring the pieces that were on constant rotation in my closet as I worked and lived at home. Along with knit t-shirts and joggers, I had what I call a Zoom Blouse, a top that is perfect for Zoom… Continue Reading Updating the At Home Capsule Wardrobe
