I found a photo of myself from 2003 last week while cleaning out a box in my sister’s basement. And oh boy. There I was, standing in front of a Blockbuster, wearing jeans that sat somewhere near my knees and a tiny shirt that said something rhinestone-y across the front. My sister laughed so hard […]
I never really thought of myself as a red person. For years I hid behind neutrals, all creams and tans and soft browns, telling myself I was just a “quiet colors” kind of girl. Then my sister Jenna showed up to a lunch wearing a cherry sweater with camel trousers and honestly, I have not […]
I have a confession. My sister always teases me that I own approximately one hundred little dresses and only ever wear about six of them. And tbh guys, she is not wrong. There is a spot in my closet where the short flowy ones hang, and I keep saying I will style them properly one […]
I bought my first slip dress on a whim, on a Tuesday, in a little shop near my sister’s apartment. I honestly did not think I would wear it much. I thought it would live in the back of my closet with all the other “someday” pieces. Reader, I was wrong. That dress has been […]
I resisted bodysuits for the longest time. My sister kept telling me they were the answer to my constant tucking-in problem, and I kept nodding and ignoring her, because that is what younger sisters do. Then one morning I was running late and grabbed one out of desperation and tbh guys, that was it. So […]
I found a photo of myself from around 2003 the other day and tbh guys – I didn’t hate it. Low-rise everything, a tiny tee, and shoes I probably could not walk in without twisting my ankle. My sister and I used to raid the mall every single weekend for exactly this look. And now […]
My little sister went through a phase in high school where she wore the same ripped flannel every single day and tbh guys – she looked cooler than the rest of us combined. I used to roll my eyes at her, but now I get it. So I put together a big list of looks, […]
I stole my first oversized shirt from my husband about six years ago and I have absolutely no plans to give it back. It was a soft white button-down that had gone a little floppy in all the right places, and one lazy Saturday I threw it on over some jeans and felt instantly put […]
I bought my first pleated skirt on a bit of a whim, right before a long weekend at my sister’s place, and honestly I didn’t expect to reach for it as much as I do. So I started saving little combos in my phone, the way you do, and before I knew it I had […]
I have this one soft cotton tee with a faded print on it that I bought at a little shop years ago, and I honestly do not remember what the print is even supposed to be anymore. But I wear it all the time. My sister makes fun of me for it. Here’s the thing […]
