Festive Flicks: A Very Netflix Holiday

For some people, the highlight of the holiday season is decorating. For others, it’s finding a spot for the Elf on the Shelf. For me?

What I’ve Learned From a Year in NYC

I’ve been living in New York City for a full year. I never thought I’d say that! Well, that’s a lie. When I was younger, I always imagined that I’d move to NYC post-college and live out my fashion dreams. But once I graduated, I wasn’t so sure about it. Mostly, I didn’t know how […]

Thanks, It’s Nuuly

As much as I hate admitting this, I care about outfit repeating. Sure, call me vapid. Materialistic. Wasteful. I can take it. In this age of social media domination, the pressure to display a different outfit each time you post a photo is real. Especially as a blogger.  Although I’m a bargain hunter and a […]

I’m in the Middle Class of Dating

I feel like I’m in the weird, middle-of-the-road section of the dating pool. I’m not some stunning woman with an enviable body.
