I have a hard enough time as it is trying to keep up with the trends. Generally, I’ll avoid them as they go against the grain of my overall wardrobe philosophy, but every now and then I’ll come across a trend that naturally fits my personal style. It’s even better if I’m able to shop my wardrobe to pull it off. So today, I wanted to share four trends to try that you might already have the items for in your wardrobe right now. Wearing Uniqlo U t-shirt (alternative here), MVN faux leather jacket (old but love this option and…
While I fell off track for a minute there, my wardrobe journey has predominantly been all about finding those wardrobe staples that will see me through the years.

With rain expected to fall over the next week or so, it’s not yet time to pack away the winter knits or put those coats into hibernation, no matter how many times you try to remind yourself it’s spring.
