Boy oh boy, have I been feeling homesick lately. Not for home — lord know we’ve seen nothing but these walls the past 3 months — but homesick for anywhere BUT home. Homesick for the feeling of wandering. Packing a suitcase and leaving our troubles behind. To be honest, I’m not even a great traveler…
I didn’t dip into my capsule much this weekend at all — mostly because my new lounge wear arrived. As soon as it got delivered Friday afternoon, I tried it on. And didn’t take it off until after I cleaned the house Sunday. It’s that good. I normally recommend avoiding impulse buys, but I’ve had…
I haven’t had much energy to try and look especially put together this week — I think I only got dressed twice. I do find that I’m fighting with myself, feeling kinda all over the place. We got news that Stevie’s school in the Fall will definitely not be full-time, so we are looking at…
The internet (or at least the slow fashion community) is all abuzz about Everlane… again. The brand has come under fire quite a few times for missteps in their business practices, and I wanted to share this latest information with you. Please see this post for the details. It’s upsetting to read isn’t it? I…
I haven’t talked much about shopping addiction lately, because… well, I haven’t been struggling with it. Yay! After accepting quarantine life and putting together my summer capsule, it was pretty clear that I don’t need anything, and I felt so surprisingly satisfied with that. In fact, it was roughly 10 days ago that I told…
Every so often I will get a gifted article of clothing from a brand. It’s not something that happens regularly, but occasionally I will find something that fits my lifestyle and needs. As of late, I have started to approach gifted items the way that I approach shopping, and I use #thefourshoppingrules before picking anything…
Before I talk about Birkenstocks, let’s talk about what’s going on here in the ol’ Jaana brain. Just when I think I’m getting used to quarantine life, it hits me that summer is only beginning. The days are so long, and with Stevie being high risk, we are in no hurry to get out and…
I have heard chatter over the last few years that a chambray shirt is no longer in style. It is OUT! Is that true? Or are we just bored with the idea? Styles come and go so quickly these days, sometimes we don’t even have time to let a trend catch on before it’s gone.…
I get so many questions about these tan slides! They are such a great minimal sandal, but they come with a heck of a price tag. So naturally, people want to know more. I will tell you right off the bat — these are a luxury item, and not a practical one. I’ve had mine…
I’m about 3 weeks into my summer capsule wardrobe (minus a few days of leggings last week during my break) and I’m feeling really positive about it so far. The experiment has been doing exactly what I expected it to. It has kept my head right where it needs to be — focused on (and…
