Fashion Week Is for Everyone (Even You, on Your Couch) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The year is 2010. I’ve just moved from small-town Texas to a-little-bit-bigger-town Texas for college. I have a handful of vivid memories from this first year, but one in particular comes to mind this time of year.The town I grew up in was pretty much your typical small town. In high school, I always enjoyed wearing cute outfits, as many teenage girls do, but it wasn’t always well-received.“Why did you curl your hair?”“Why are you so dressed up?”“Are you going somewhere?”This was the general res
Après-Flea (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I recently acquired some earrings at a flea market. THE earrings. I have become rather adept at avoiding thrift blindness (for the most part), largely on account of one too many bouts of buyer’s remorse. I have grown intimately familiar with that undeniable sensation of “I LOVE IT, IT MUST BE MINE,” and know almost immediately whether something is a yes or a no — a discernment that can only be earned through a considerable number of mistakes.Subscribe now<div class="captioned-image-cont
Weekend Minutes (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Happy Monday! It’s 11:37am. I’m sitting at the dining room table, typing away at my computer while eating a tuna sandwich.

Today is my daughters’ first full day of school and we’re officially back in business. They have been SO re

I am miles away from a perfect mom and will never try to be one, but I am proud of myself. I stayed home full time with my three girls, ages 8, 6, and 5, maintained my work as best I could, admitted when I needed help or space, and did my best to be present with the girls while maintaining boundaries when needed (perks of having kids who are a bit o
What My Classic Car Has Taught Me About Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Inconvenience (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you follow me on Instagram, chances are you’ve seen the car we bought a few months ago. It’s a 2002 Land Rover Range Rover — and for the car connoisseurs who come for me every time I post about it, it’s “technically” not a “classic car” for another year, but calling it classic now is my prerogative! Ease of characters for text overlay people !!!! I digress. :)Subscribe now<div class="captioned-image-contai
