Calling all old and new Everlane fans! Back at it with another review this week for a fun piece I have been eyeing up lately: the linen jumpsuit. Sizing notes: I am 5'4" and ordered an 8, and it fits well. The shoulder straps are adjustable, with 3 options to button the straps into place. I also love the thickness of the straps- perfect to wear a regular bra with. The fabric is linen so it wrinkles easily, but it is very breathable so makes it perfect for warmer weather. There are belt loops Read More
Review: Everlane Perform Legging + Styling Ideas
Do you wear leggings as much as I do? Not only are they great for working out, but they are so.dang.comfortable that they are perfect for casual, athleisure looks and even dressier options. Everlane just launched their own collection of leggings – in core & seasonal colors – and after reviewing a pair, I have to say they are pretty good! The premium performance fabric is buttery smooth and light. It is sweat-wicking with compression (aka smoothing!), but also fairly matte (I did notice a Read More
My Minimalism Style: Top Notch Tees from Tapered Collection
Here you go- proof that I actually wear something other than workout clothes. I wore this to work last week and snapped some photos once I got home (along with my trusty sidekick who wanted in and has a knack for posing-- especially with "accessories.") I picked up this skirt at J.Crew Factory off the clearance rack a couple weeks ago for crazy cheap. Since I've honed in on my style and am striving for a more streamlined, minimalist closet, I'm actually paring down my skirts and selling them Read More
My Minimalism Style, Athleisure Edition: Elevating a Leggings Outfit
Leggings are pretty much my go-to on the days when I am not at work. Just can't beat 'em- they are comfortable, warm, and ideal for playing with a toddler. Since I usually wear them with sneakers of some sort, I usually want to dress in athletic wear on the top too. So in an effort to avoid the whole "sporty spice" look, I opted to go more of the athleisure route. My chambray shirts have been getting a lot more wear these days (more on why I love it here), and this was a great opportunity to Read More

This type of clothing is comfortable for playing Read More
My Minimalism Style: Adding Warmth to a Black Outfit
Sweater (exact, ethically made option) Pants (old from The Limited, what I’ll buy once I wear these out) Booties (exact) Necklace (made by me!) Going for an all-black palette is an easy way to get dressed and get out of the house quickly. I wore this outfit to work and to church recently, and it worked well for both situations. Something about the monochromatic look is chic and effortless. And to warm it up, I added the cognac booties and simple necklace. And since Read More
Mom Style #40 // Classic Holiday Outfit in Ivory and Black
Sweater: Madewell c/o Shopbop {exact, exact} Pants: Old Navy {exact} Flats: Target {exact} Necklace: Madewell c/o Shopbop {exact} When it comes to holiday looks, I love a good buffalo plaid button down and fun, trendy sequin skirts as much as the next gal, but you just can't go wrong with the classics. And it doesn't get more classic than ivory and black. I've been wearing this Madewell tie-waist sweater nonstop since I got it. It's warm and cozy, and front tie belt gives it a Read More
Save vs. Splurge // D’Orsay Flats
D’Orsay flats are a twist on the standard ballet flat. With a capped pointed toe and cutouts on the sides, they are chic, minimalist and modern. While the flats above come in several colors and prints (like leopard!), I focused on the classic: basic black. J. Crew makes a suede version at nearly $100, and it’s counterpart J.Crew Factory has a similar version for a bit less at $89.50. I bought these and ended up returning them because I found a much cheaper alternative at Target that flattered Read More
