How I am Using Pinterest to Reinvigorate My Winter Wardrobe

I've been feeling a little uninspired with my wardrobe lately. Don't get me wrong, I've been getting dressed every day (thank goodness for daily Instagram posts haha). However, pulling an outfit each day has become increasingly arduous. One reason for this is the famous, or infamous, polar vortex that has overtaken my life. Seriously, my kids have never had school canceled so much before and since we are hibernating inside, I would much rather…

A Petite Girl’s Review of Elizabeth Suzann’s Andy Trousers

Let me start this off by saying that this is on no way a sponsored post. I purchased these Andy trousers from Elizabeth Suzann back in October of 2018, received them at the end of November and have been wearing them for the past 2 months. I wanted to wait a little while after purchasing these Andy trousers before reviewing them so that I could figure out what I really like about them and…

How to Wash Wool Clothes At Home

I previously wrote a post about building a sustainable wardrobe with natural fabric clothing, and now I want to share with you the method that I use to care for these fabrics, especially how to wash wool at home. Even when I decided to incorporate more natural fabric clothing into my wardrobe, I was a little nervous. Mainly because I thought that it would be too much of a hassle to care for. I…

Building a Sustainable Wardrobe with Natural Fabric Clothing

The idea of only buying clothing made from natural fabric is pretty new to me. I used to focus on quantity over quality in terms of my clothing. Everything was bought because it was cute and cheap. And therefore, disposable. I never ever paid attention to the fabric composition listed on the tag. I certainly wasn't concerned about natural fabric or the longevity of my clothing. Instead, I was always thinking that I could…

Reimagining a space – a minimalist living room

  • Post category:Home

If you read my previous post, you know that I am doing a no buy challenge through an Instagram group. As such, I am not buying any new clothes for the next 3 months. This reduced focus on my wardrobe means that I will have more time to focus on our home and getting the spaces to feel "right". This has been/will be done by better utilizing the spaces through minor upgrades and by…

Attempt No. 2 at a Shopping Ban

  • Post category:Life

Well, it looks like it's that time again. Time for me to take another attempt at a 3 month shopping ban. I think enough time has passed for me to forget the failure of the last one. I kid. Kinda. But not really. If you read this post, you already know that I attempted to do a shopping ban on all clothing back in July. The ban was scheduled to start in July and…

It All Started With a Word – Intentions

  • Post category:Life

I don't do resolutions. I used to, but I always gave up on them far too quickly. So, for the past few years, I've let the new year roll in with no set goals for the year. So this year, I'm doing things a little differently. Firstly, I've selected a word of the year. I had never done this before, or even heard about it, but after reading various Instagram posts of other people's…
