A week of outfits and ramblings

A few months ago, I wrote a blog post explaining that I didn’t know whether I wanted to continue writing about fashion anymore.

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 […]
