Low Buy 2022: May Check-In

Low Buy 2022: May Check-In

Another month down, and another Low Buy update to share. One of the things I really picked up on in May was that I found myself scrolling less. Overall, there was just a lot less desire to look at stuff. And I think this is in part down to the fact that I’m now two months postpartum; that desire to shop and buy something that *actually* fits is gone (a huge trigger for me during both my pregnancies), and also, I just have a lot less free time to mindlessly scroll online. Wearing Jenni Kayne alpaca knit (15% off with…

Linjer Sofia Bag Review & What Fits Inside

Linjer Sofia Bag Review & What Fits Inside

To celebrate the release of the Linjer Sofia Bag in the colour ‘cognac’, I wanted to share a review and peek at what fits inside. At this point, I’m pretty well versed with their leather goods. And if there’s one thing I can say straight off the bat, it’s that you can rely on the brand for a well made bag using high quality materials; on par with any of the designer bags I own. Wearing Jenni Kayne dress (JamieLee15 for 15% off); YSL slides; Linjer Sofia Bag To give some context to my bag preferences, I currently have a…

You’ll have to forgive the infrequent posting; currently trying to settle into something of a rhythm since having our baby girl. Safe to say free time is at a premium right now.

I’d had the luxury of…
