I shared in a recent Friday Shop post that I had dreams of being a “21st Century Mrs. Roper” but didn’t like how I looked or felt in caftans. While the whole internet seems to be in love with the concept of a nap dress, I’ve been gravitating towards elevated athleisure. But with a recent… Continue Reading A Tale of Two Caftans

J.Jill reached out and asked if I’d like to try their linen collection. Since adding more linen to my wardrobe as seen in this blog post, I was game.

I love these jeans, but I haven’t had them photographed… Continue Reading Denim and Tie-Dye

I was able to see where the clothes are made, see mood boards for their upcoming collection, and the brand’s famous dress forms created from the 3D body scans of… Continue Reading One Outfit, Two Different Occasions
Tuesday I attended training to be an election judge for my county. Maryland has its primaries at the end of April and though I’ve taken this training before, it was back in 2018 and a refresher was well appreciated. Also, since 2018 our county has updated some aspects of voting. We now offer same-day registration;… Continue Reading cabi Shy Pullover: Petal Pink with Black
