I go on streaks when it comes to retail therapy, but last weekend I went to the mall. How vintage, right? Zoe overheard me telling The Boy I was running to Woodfield, and she begged to tag along. H&M, Zara, and Spencer's were high on her must-visit list. Here are a few things I loved at the mall and also a few things I bought online.[...]

So if you are presently wearing said skinny jeans with a side part, which is clearly not the superior hairstyle, t[...]

Protests and shouting ensued outside my home (kidding - that didn't happen), but the comment section was a scene. Don't blame me — I'm just the messenger. But, if those leg-hugging jeans are no longer in fashion, what are the trending je[...]
The quest for the best pajamas to wear for all-day comfort began last April at the beginning of the pandemic. Since then comfy, cozy loungewear has become a staple in my daily wardrobe. Printfresh PJs appeared in my Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest feeds a few times, so when they reached out and asked if I wanted to collaborate, I took[...]
