This pandemic has really forced me out of the store and into my own closet… spending so much time at home has motivated me to really whittle down my wardrobe to the things I love and then find new ways to style them and actually wear them, pandemic or not!

SEPTEMBER EDIT

September is such a strange but beautiful month in SoCal, it’s a little bit of endless summer vibes but the cravings of fall start to present themselves here and there.
