My husband takes the majority of my photos… unless someone is taking my photos for trade work. Having a #boyfriendphotographer (at least one in the making) has its perks. It also has its downsides. For instance… we have different ideas of what photos should look like. I think a fashion blog should have a certain …
pencil skirt
Confession… I HATE my ankles. A combination of genes (thanks Grandma!), bad ankles causing scar tissue, and lack of exercise this past year have really emphasized this feeling for me. But it is just something we all deal with. No, not everyone hates their ankles. My mom to this day still has nice, pretty, skinny …
FAUX Everything
Faux hawk. Faux fur. ‘m thinking of making a hair tutorial for this braided faux hawk, and you can find this faux fur jacket at AMI Clubwear. MAKE SURE TO ORDER TWO SIZES UP. I ordered one size up (I always do, I like long jacket sleeves) and it was still snug and shorter sleeves. …
texas tuxedo
I know you’re probably thinking, “Boot cut?” Yeah, I was a little unsure about them at first, too. I couldn’t tell if they seemed outdated– almost western. But, I ran with it anyway in the these jeans. The Texas Tuxedo is classified as all jeans, from head to toe. Topped it all off with my …

Now, that you know that, here is something else you should know– I want to always be completely transparent about this AND my opinion …
huipil x monrow
HUIPIL (we-pill)- Handwoven embroidered fabric made in Guatemala. It’s actually a pretty special material. Women spend hours weaving and creating beautiful designs, usually making clothing out of them. My husband served his LDS mission in Guatemala for two years and we have talked about how hard the little old ladies would work on their artwork. …
HOW TO DIY: Matte Nail Polish
Lately, or actually, for the past year, I have been wanting to try this matte nail polish trend that I see popping up everywhere. I couldn’t figure out how it was happening, and I also didn’t want to spend a bajillion dollars on a matte nail polish when I already have probably 50 nail polishes …
New Year’s Resolutions for Your 20’s
Every year you probably sit down and think, “What can I do to be better?” This is called your resolutions list. We resolve to lose weight, to find love, to make more money, but for some reason it never seems like our goals are met. But, maybe it is because our goals are missing one …
cape vs. high-low
Some articles of clothing are just meant to be worn differently than they were intended. I once bought a tuelle skirt that really looked great when I put it on. Later, when I got said skirt home, I saw on the tag that it was actually a tube top. I still wear that article of …
