    Life Update: A Month off and What’s Next

    It has been just under a month since I wrote my last blog post. Just under, because I actually published it late for reasons I am about to discuss. For the month of May I took my first ever ‘intentional’ month off from blogging in over 4 years. I wish I could say it was for ‘self-care’ or relaxing, but it wasn’t.

    Spring Transitions with a PAWS Graphic Tee

    One of my favorite things about fashion is its versatility especially when it comes to your expressing your mood. Fashion can be serious, bold, playful and downright outrageous. In the endless winter we seem to be having it’s that playfulness that I have been craving. One of my favorite items to add levity to a look while helping it navigate the seasons is this PAWS graphic tee. The graphic tee is a great piece to help transition your wardrobe from season to season. In cold weather it is an easy layering piece, when it warms up it becomes the center of your look. This year Spring has been a fickle…
