My 10×10 Closet Challenge - Fall Edition (2018) - Day 6-10

Oh hi! Is it still time for me to post the second half of my fall 10x10 challenge? I'll take that as a yes. For some reason, the daily posting on Instagram overwhelmed me a little and I took a little social media break, and then I totally

My 10×10 Closet Challenge - Fall Edition (2018) - Day 1-5

The 10x10 challenge is always such an exciting time for me! I spend more time than I care to admit coming up with new outfit combinations and scrolling through the #fall10x10 and #10x10friends hashtags on Instagram (PS: did you know you can follow a hashtag on Instagram?) It's

Portland Flea Market Finds

Portland Flea Market Finds

Sometimes the vintage stars align and you find the perfect outfit for a bargain in less than half an hour. Note to self: Stop shooting pictures on trash collection days. Last Sunday, I had planned to go to the flea market early, wander, eat at a foot cart and visit

What's in a Name?

What's in a Name?

When I was a kid, a teacher would come to my school to teach us English once a week. I have two memories from her class: 1. She leaves the school crying because we forgot to do our homework (mean little 10-year-olds!). 2. She randomly picked British names for us.

A Recap of my 10×10 Closet Challenge Recap - Fall Edition (2017)

I wrapped my first 10x10 Challenge close to 2 weeks ago and think that now is a good time to look back on it. Since I've jumped into this challenge without preparation and did not plan outfits or put a lot of thought into the pieces I chose,
