Parting ways with my former job hurt…a lot. But it was also freeing. Without realizing it I had slowly lost my identity in the form of this monetized self who I wasn’t entirely comfortable being. (For legal reasons I am not not badmouthing any one company, this is mostly on me and my type-A approachContinue reading “Fashion Blogging Would Have Ruined This Vacation”

Outfits For Europe in the Winter // Dipping My Toe Back Into Fashion Blogging My Way
