Hindsight is 20/20; it’s difficult not to look back on previous experiences, and think about how you might have approached a situation differently. And as someone who spends a huge chunk of their waking hours working – whether it’s at my ‘traditional’ 9 to 5 job, or freelancing for my little corner of the internet, I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting lately, on some of the career advice that I wish I’d had when I was just getting my start in the workforce. I’ll admit, I’m still in the relatively early stages of my career; it was at the…
My capsule wardrobe days are long gone, now, though despite it no longer being the right fit for how I want to structure my wardrobe, the entire experience taught me a lot about how to approach my day-to-day style. The biggest learning for me was really putting a focus on matching the contents of my wardrobe with my lifestyle.

If you saw my recent packing post, then you’ll know that when I’m planning a trip abroad, interstate, or even just a stay-cation, I like to pack light. My rule of thumb is that it’s carry-on only for seven days or less, and I like my travel beauty stash to be just as carefully curated as my vacation wardrobe essentials.
