We can all agree that the past year has been…a lot. A lot of change, a lot of chaos, a lot of Netflix, a lot of TikTok, a lot of being home with our loungewear and wondering if we should just get rid of any pants without a drawstring waistband. While this has definitely led …
Bomber and Blues
I have to say I’m pretty excited that bomber jackets have made a comeback! They’re the perfect mix of military and comfort. I’ve paired it with denim and brogue boots for the perfect balance of trends and basics. Photos by Amie Akers Bomber by H&M – similar here Denim Shirt by Arizona Jeans Co. – …

Seaside Sights
On our last day in Barcelona we went to Mercat de Santa Caterina in the morning and grabbed some jamón ibérico and cheese and fresh fruit juice (more about the market in my travel guide coming soon). Then we headed over here to the harbor on the Mediterranean Sea for a picnic. It was probably …
