As I try to make the most of what I already have before considering to add something new to my wardrobe, I’m more and more drawn to the idea of pushing the boundaries of my style, and experimenting with new silhouettes. For me, the simplest way to get some extra mileage out of my wardrobe, is to give myself some limitations. So with that in mind, and a new season upon us, I thought it’d be fun to create a 10X10 Wardrobe Challenge edit for autumn. The 10X10 Wardrobe Challenge If you aren’t familiar with the 10X10 Wardrobe Challenge, it…
When I first started revising the contents of my wardrobe, I would religiously tally up how often I wore each item. The key for me was to wear it at least 30 times during its life span in my wardrobe… though it probably goes without saying that many pieces just didn’t make the cut.

February was a pretty big month for me in the way of beauty; I added quite a few new products into rotation across my makeup and skincare routines, including from a couple of brands I’d been incredibly curious about. So let’s kick off this February beauty edit with what…
Habits can be pretty difficult to break. That coffee we can’t start our mornings without, watching TV to fall asleep, or the habit of buying something new as a treat or ‘just because’… I’ve been pretty guilty of that last one, using shopping often as a way to escape problems, because I’m bored, or because I’ve seen an item everywhere and feel that I need to add it to my wardrobe.
