*Some items were gifted but all opinions are my own. I started using ILIA Beauty products in July of 2020 and since then I’ve been HOOKED. I first fell in love with the packaging and overall brand aesthetic – plus the fact that they are a clean beauty brand. The products are formulated WITHOUT talc, parabens, phthalates, petroleum, mineral oil,… View Post
I recently did a closet clean-out which means I was left with A LOT of unwanted clothes and underwear. Some pieces are lightly used and can find a new home, others are too worn out to be sold or given away. The question is: “What do you do with old and unwanted clothing?”. What to Do with Unwanted Clothes The… View Post
Lately, I just want to wear comfortable, oversized sweaters so when I saw Everlane’s Oversized Stroopwafel Turtleneck I decided that I needed to try it out. I was also intrigued by Everlane’s release of their New Modern Loafer – which is an updated version of their classic loafer style that was available a couple years ago. I happened to get… View Post
My underwear drawer is probably the most neglected area of my wardrobe. It consists of a collection of “free” underwear from Victoria’s Secret that I acquired over the years plus maternity underwear that’s starting not to fit me anymore. Considering that I wear underwear everyday (obviously), there’s really no reason why I shouldn’t invest more money into my collection. This… View Post
Starting a new year always makes me want to CLEAN and PURGE! I love being able to start the year more organized. And while I’m pretty good at not holding on to junk, there’s always room for improvement and there’s always something I can get rid of. So I’m sharing how I clean out and organize my closet! My Closet… View Post
During my closet clean out I rediscovered a lot of pieces in my closet that I hadn’t worn in awhile. Even though I still love these pieces, they weren’t getting the attention they deserved because there was too much other stuff cluttering my closet. So recently, I decided to dedicate a week to wearing these “old” pieces from my closet!… View Post
I’ve know about the Spanish knitwear brand babaà for awhile now. It has a cult following among the ethical fashion community but I only recently jumped on board the train. During babaà ‘s recent winter sale I picked up one of their famous cardigans so I thought I’d share more about the brand and my thoughts on the cardigan. Babaà Review:… View Post
*Updated Feb. 2021 Since a lot of us will be spending time at home thanks to the #Quarantineof2020, I thought I’d round up some of my favorite places to shop for loungewear! I’ve been spending a lot of time in loungewear recently since having my baby boy in January. During the first couple months postpartum you live in comfy loungewear… View Post
I love all my outfits but sometimes I put together a look that just feels 100% ME. This look would be one of those outfits. It’s comfortable, put-together, and makes me feel confident. Sézane Striped Sweater The first part of this outfit features my new Sézane Léontine Jumper. This is an oversized knit made from a heavy cotton, so it… View Post
*I was gifted the Always Pan but all opinions are my own Use code “JTC10” for 10% off all products! (1 use per customer). The Our Place Always Pan is the “IT” pan of Instagram right now. I don’t think there’s anyone who hasn’t seen a targeted ad or influencer using this pan. I myself was definitely taken in by… View Post
It’s finally starting to get cooler in LA and that has me thinking about my winter wardrobe! Over the years I’ve realized having a wardrobe full of versatile basics makes getting dressed a lot easier. I’ve also started to pair down my closet and only keep items that I truly love. Which is why I’ve gravitated towards seasonal capsule collections…. View Post
I loved my first round of Sézane Essentials so much that I decided to add a few more pieces to my closet specifically for winter! In case you didn’t know, Sézane has a section on their site dedicated to their Essentials, which are basically French closet staples. These are styles that they bring back season after season in classic and… View Post
*I was gifted these sweaters for review but all opinions are my own. If you’ve been following my blog for awhile you know I LOVE Everlane. I’ve been a fan of theirs for years – almost since they first launched. I think they do a great job at making high quality pieces at a great price. I discovered NAADAM more… View Post
You guys know I’m a loyal Biossance user (you can read my full review here) but I’m also a skincare junkie and love to try out ALL the products. I’m also always on the hunt for clean skincare products that deliver results. This had led me to cash in my Sephora points over the years for Drunk Elephant samples so… View Post
One of my goals for 2021 is to help you make more informed and intentional purchases. My hope is that we only buy things we love as to avoid overconsumption and excess. I figured a good way to do that would be to share the items I wear the most in my closet! I’ve been buying from Everlane for YEARS… View Post
*Originally published in 2020. Updated for 2021! (Scroll to the bottom to see what eco-friendly practices I successfully implemented in 2020!) I’m not one to make New Year’s Resolutions because I NEVER keep them. But there’s one area of my life that I’ve been wanting to make an update to and that’s reducing the amount of waste I produce in… View Post
Lately, I’ve noticed that my skin is extremely dry. I thought maybe I wouldn’t have to deal with dry skin this winter because I live in California and it doesn’t get cold here – but I was wrong! The air is still dry and it’s having an effect on my skin! The past few weeks I started to notice some… View Post
*Pieces gifted in collaboration with Lunya We’ve all been spending more time in our pajamas and loungewear this year (at least I have!) so why not lounge in luxury? I first noticed Lunya last year around the holidays and fell in love with their washable silk pajama sets. I immediately put their pj’s on my wishlist! Fast forward to this… View Post
I know that most of us are staying in this holiday but that doesn’t mean that I’m going to forget about my holiday wardrobe! I actually bought this skirt last holiday when I was pregnant with the hopes that I’d eventually be able to fit in it! I’m happy to report that a year later I can finally squeeeze into… View Post
I’ve been a fan of Christy Dawn for a couple years now but never bit the bullet and purchased anything. But that all changed over Black Friday when I took advantage of their 30% off sale! I fell in love with this gorgeous green, floral prairie dress and had to add it to my cart. It’s not technically called a… View Post
I’ve had to replace all of my denim recently because I no longer fit in them! I’m 11 months postpartum so I’m still a little bigger than my usual size. Thankfully, Mott + Bow asked me if I wanted to try out a pair of their denim so I was able to pick something out in me new size! Mott… View Post
