I’ve been pretty vocal about how I want my wardrobe to work harder and smarter. It might be exciting to add a new piece to your closet when you’re feeling a bit bored, but if your wardrobe is anything like mine, it’s those foundational classic essentials which truly are the backbone of all your go-to outfits. Even when shopping for my 9 to 5, I was constantly putting an emphasis on getting cost-per-wear from every purchase. I wanted to build a versatile wardrobe that was functional for day-to-day in the office, but that could do double duty for my more…
As much as I love trying something new, when it comes to beauty I’ve been putting a huge emphasis on loving and using up what I already have. Perhaps a bit of an obsession of mine as of late has been Project Use it Up or ‘Project Pan’; largely in part because it just feels good to finally finish a product you spent time researching and have invested in, and I love having that little bit of extra shelf space back when I’m finally done using up a product.

Since giving my wardrobe a bit of a shake up, my current spring closet is replete with classic pieces in monochromatic hues, and plenty of denim.

Despite the rain and brisk weather, I’ve been thinking just a little bit about my spring wardrobe. So let’s just into the five looks that have been informing my spring style… 1. Blouse-y tops paired with denim I try to incorporate a bit of balance into my outfits, and I love the mixed proportions of pairing a loose billowy blouse with a fitted pair of jeans (or even some shorts). It…
Happy Monday everyone! I hope that you all had a fantastic weekend. For today’s outfit, I wanted to share a look that I was wearing last week: this simple combo wearing a pair of skinny jeans and an Everlane wool oversized blazer. As someone who now spends a lot more time working in a home office, I’ve been loving the laid back approach to getting dressed (#denimfordays), and a well-tailored blazer has been my go-to to make outfits look a little smarter. Wearing Uniqlo t-shirt, Dr Denim skinny jeans (similar), Everlane wool oversized blazer (worn in size US 2), Isabel…
