Lately, I can’t get enough of chocolate brown in my wardrobe. And my credit card is feeling it, lol. The color is warm, grounding, and just right for early fall. I’ve been buying everything from everyday basics to little statement pieces, and it somehow makes even the simplest look feel elevated. Sharing a few of my favorite chocolatey finds that I’ve been loving (and adding to cart) right now!
As much as I hold onto summer weather for dear life, I do love fall clothes. Pre-fall fashion is such a good sweet spot of the in-between moment when I’m ready to be done with boob sweat in sundresses but not quite ready for heavy coats and boots.
It’s all about layering, cozy textures, and rich, earthy tones that seem to be universally flattering.
It’s hard to believe that Amalia is already halfway through elementary school. Everyone told me these years would fly by, but I couldn’t have imagined just how fast it would all go.
One of my favorite things to look back on is how much her style has evolved since Kindergarten. She went from frilly dresses and patterned leggings to cropped sweaters, flare pants, and ripped jeans.
Last summer, I could only squeeze into one pair of shorts from my (very impressive) collection. I lived in flowy, waistless dresses and panic-bought oversized cotton pants to get by. Physically and mentally, I wasn’t in a good place. I was dealing with Epstein-Barr Virus and some pretty debilitating anxiety. In short... I was a mess.
