Hopefully Covid will be soon just be a distant memory. With talks of vaccines, I’m hoping we can finally nip this thing and go back to a relatively normal life. I’ve been blessed so far during this pandemic. I’ve still been able to go to Disney World (once they re-opened), gone to small weddings, and even smaller funerals. To say I’ve traveled a lot via plane during covid would be an understatement. I’ve actually flown far more than I would like. (Even before a pandemic, I was never a fan of flying). Since I’m trying to be extra precautious when flying during covid, the travel essentials you need have changed.…

Sweater Skirt Picks & Round Up
Y’all, I don’t know what it is but I feel like I’m loosing my steam. I’m out of outfit ideas, or at least, don’t feel like putting new ones together. I’m also like, lol, broke so I don’t have money for new clothes right now. (Thanks new MacBook. Christmas come fast!) In actuality, I’m just being melodramatic. I have zero complaints about my life. The MacBook was a long time coming and way cheaper than what I was saving for. I’m about to go on a long awaited for girls trip to Denver. And, I’m not really broke, I’m simply saving up for other things. All of that though makes…

2020 Gift Guide for the Holiday Season
So I’ve really been thinking about it and, while I do love looking at gift guides, it’s not really my main source of holiday shopping. A gift guide is full of great ideas, especially if you’re feeling uninspired in 2020. But, I still believe that a thoughtful and personal gift is better than any generic gift. Which is why my gift guides tend to think of certain people in my life and what they would like or need. So I encourage you to do the same. I hope this 2020 gift guide will help inspire you & think of your favorite people. Who knows, maybe your friends & family are…

Sherpa Jacket that is Cute & Affordable
Alright y’all switching things up today. (You may ask, “Danielle, how are you switching things up?”). Well this post wasn’t originally planned! Ha, ha, ha! (The type A in me is screaming right now). I was going to post on sweater vest and how I’m really loving their comeback. However, more pressing issues appeared when I received my sherpa jacket from Target a few weeks ago! At the time, I did jump on Instagram stories to talk a little bit about it but as I thought more I realized, it needs it’s own post. And not just my sherpa jacket, but all affordable options out there. Disclosure: Some of the…

2020 Black Friday Deals & Sales to Shop Now!
Would you look at that, another post I said I wasn’t going to write. 2020 has been a weird year y’all and I just haven’t been motivated to round up black Friday deals. Don’t get me wrong, I’m definitely window shopping 2020 black Friday deals. But I just don’t know if I’ll buy anything. (Ok who am I kidding, I’ve had my eyes on these Keds boots, it’s now or never since they’re 30% off!) However, even if I do shop I know it’s only for 1 or 2 items that have been on my list for awhile. I just bought a new computer so any more shopping than that…

Is Fast Fashion Avoidable & How to Combat It
This fast fashion issue has been on my mind lately. Is fast fashion avoidable? Am I a terrible human being for contributing to the problem? Do I need to change all my habits to avoid it? Will the fashion blogging niche go away if fast fashion does? These are all questions running through my head and I (clearly) have some opinions on them. To state it quickly and simply, we should absolutely try our best to avoid fast fashion. There’s some pretty simple (and affordable) ways to combat fast fashion. However, we shouldn’t condemn people who can’t avoid it and have used it before. You don’t conquer the world through…

Mastering the Half Tuck Shirt
Who even am I anymore? I used to be strictly no tuck shirt girl. Then I become a full tuck type girl. And now I’m the in between, a half tuck shirt kind of girl. I remember trying to half tuck before in my life and it just never worked out. No matter how hard I tried, my half tuck never looked like the pictures. It looked too big, or too tight. It was sloppy and not polished. I seriously struggled with it until I gave up on the half tuck all together. Fast forward to now and I’m giving it another go. I think I’ve finally found what works…

How to Style Oversized Denim Jackets
Let me start with something disheartening; Why is it that every time someone dies I seem to acquire their denim jackets? It seems like if a relative passes away that is the item I end up with. While I love having something to remember them by, I have so many denim jackets now, and half of them are far oversized. Up until this point, I was just going to leave them hanging in my closet. But I figured, oversized clothing is trendy right now so why not try it out with one of my (many) denim jackets. Disclosure: Some of the links in this post are affiliate links, meaning at…

Happy Halloween! My Halloweekend Plans
HAPPY HALLOWEEN Y’ALL!!! I can’t even remember the last time Halloween was on a Saturday. (Apparently it was when I was in college so we see how well I remembered that…). But I bet as a kid, Halloween on a Saturday was pure torture. Having to wait all day to get candy is bad enough. But at least if you were at school you would have something to distract you. As an adult though, Halloween on a Saturday sounds like heaven. Pull out the pumpkin spice, the Halloween movies, and heck might as well start on the boo’s around noon. This year I’m extra excited to celebrate Halloween! Not only…

Fall Fashion 2020 – Trends I’m Obsessed With
Ok so I really wasn’t planning on doing a fall fashion trends post for 2020. There’s a couple of reasons for that. 1. I usually am not on top of / don’t like trendy fashion. 2. 2020 is just such a weird year and I thought with less people going out there would be less fashion trends this fall. Turns out, there are totally trends this fall (2020 didn’t completely vanish). And who knew, but I’m actually obsessed with so many of them. I guess it took a year of forcing people to be introverts for this girls introvert style to come out. Disclosure: Some of the links in this…
