Based on your feedback, you’d love to see my Stories try-on’s make a permanent home on the blog. I’m so happy to make this happen! Every month I’ll share my top try-on’s with you in a roundup post like this. I’ll share each look/piece and write out my thoughts. You can always come back to these and reference them when you go to buy or need to do research.
Many of you requested “best of” types of posts, so I thought it would be helpful to break down some of my staple shoes in my closet. These are shoes that I’ve either had for years and still reach for or shoes I know will become regulars for years to come. Over the years I’ve really pared down my shoes and try to only invest in shoes I know I will wear. A couple years ago I noticed myself buying anything and everything that caught my eye and I was stuck with a closet full of shoes I never wore. Today’s post is dedicated to the staples, shoes I love and wear and shoes I would recommend to anyone.
This post is long overdue and I’m so excited about it! I want to share reviews of even more denim styles because I know you’re always on the hunt for the best jeans, so stay tuned for more posts like these. I asked you in Stories to share some of the denim you were looking to try from Nordstrom and went ahead and ordered a handful of your suggestions/brands. I was specifically in the market for the perfect high rise, dark wash, cropped flare jeans, so a lot of the options I tried are this style. Read on to see if I cover any of the jeans you’re looking to try.
While the holidays will look different this year, many of you said you’re still looking for festive or cozy outfit ideas. For me, this year has been all about finding the best pieces to wear at-home – I’ve splurged on loungewear and I’ve sought after the best materials – it’s been a nice way to bridge the gap between staying home, but still feeling like myself and getting dressed. Today, I’m bringing you 3 outfits from EILEEN FISHER that are not only perfect for the holidays, but will make you feel chic and elevated even at home.
One of the biggest things you’ll notice about living in Oregon, people do not stop what they’re doing because it’s cold outside. If they did, you wouldn’t see anyone outdoors for 9 months of the year. After living here for a few years and finally figuring out we needed a whole different wardrobe for the cold, we started to get out more and really enjoy all the seasons Oregon has to offer. Thankfully, there’s websites like Backcountry where you can find all your cold weather needs. I’m so excited I found them because now I can do all my outdoor wear shopping in one place!
Happy Monday! I hope you had a wonderful weekend. It was the first weekend I’ve spent NOT working in a very long time and it felt SO good. I also got the rest of my Christmas shopping done, so I’d say it was a very productive weekend. If you’re still in search of gift ideas, today I’m sharing 5 under $100 from Nordstrom. Not only is Nordstrom a one-stop-shop for everyone on your gift list, you can also do same-day pickup (with gift wrap) or $12 two-day shipping.
We’ve officially entered the cold and rainy season in Oregon. While I don’t mind it now during the holidays (love snuggling up on the couch with the fire on to watch a movie), I’ll be telling you a different story come Jan-March, lol. But, that’s Oregon for you! Over the last 4-5 years we’ve lived here, I’ve become quite good at finding and sourcing the best cold weather essentials. I recently found some affordable options at Walmart I’m super excited to share with you!
Phew, how are we doing after Cyber Week? Did you get the majority of your holiday shopping done? I think this may have been the first year I actually did the majority of my holiday shopping during Black Friday and Cyber Monday (proud of myself lol). I’m feeling very organized… family photos and holiday cards, that’s another story. If you’re still on the hunt for the perfect gift for your hard-to-find family and friends, today I’m sharing 5 gifts from Everlane that won’t disappoint. Not only do I own, LOVE, and recommend everything (own all but 1), but all these pieces are made ethically and with the finest materials.
Happy CYBER MONDAY! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. If you’re still shopping, I’m sharing the best deals for Cyber Monday. I’m sharing details on my favorite sales along with everything in my closet that’s on sale.
