January 2021 favorites: Lifestyle, skincare, Etc.

February 3, 2021.Reading time 6 minutes.

It’s hardly original to start a favorites post by talking about how quickly the previous month seemed to go, but honestly I can’t think of any other way to begin. Was it just me or did January feel like it never happened? Time certainly feels unusual these days, but I’m still trying to wrap my […]

OK, how exactly do I blog about fashion anymore?

January 27, 2021.Reading time 4 minutes.

“I think I’ve worn this sweater three times this week already.” If you haven’t asked yourself some variation of this question over the last year, good to you. But also, like, how?! One of the strangest parts of coming back to my blog has been trying to decide how to approach the fashion component. When […]

Skincare products i can’t get enough of

January 20, 2021.Reading time 6 minutes.

When I decided to start blogging again, I knew one of the first things I wanted to talk about was skincare. I used to write about skincare all the time on here. In fact, I got so used to it that even when I wasn’t blogging, I was still in the mindset of “Oh, I […]

Learn to embroider with me!

January 13, 2021.Reading time 11 minutes.

Like many people, I’ve spent the majority of this past year sitting at home. My down time has mostly consisted of reading, knitting, and watching an excessive number of TikToks, but I’ve also committed myself picking up new hobbies. Last spring, I went through a painting phase. Following that, I got really into bleaching and […]

Fun Things to Do At Home During Quarantine

April 13, 2020.Reading time 7 minutes.

Hey there! It’s been a minute since the last time I posted here on the blog. So much has changed these past weeks that I honestly don’t even know where to begin. If you would’ve told me a month ago that my first post back would be a list of ways to keep yourself busy […]

Hey…it’s me again

January 8, 2020.Reading time 5 minutes.

I should start this out by admitting that until last week, I wasn’t sure whether I’d ever write this post, or any other for that matter. It’s been three months since I last blogged, and in that time I toyed with the idea of making this break permanent. Of course, given that I’m writing this […]

I’m way too non-confrontational, and I need to cut it out

October 1, 2019.Reading time 5 minutes.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve prided myself on being non-confrontational. Finding ways around conflict has always come easy to me. From the first sense of hostility, I am up on my toes, ready to navigate around the situation. It is like an alarm goes off in my head, the words ALERT, ALERT, […]

What to Do When Things Don’t Go According to Plan

August 29, 2019.Reading time 7 minutes.

At the beginning of June, I had a clear vision of what I wanted to do with my blog this summer. Then, I went through a creative rut. I did not write a post (or even attempt to write a post) for a month. That’s the longest I have ever gone since I started blogging […]
