My craving for pretty pale pink didn’t quite begin with getting a rose gold pair of Beats headphones for Christmas, but it definitely gained momentum. Maybe it’s a reaction to the winter and I’m in need of a springtime palate cleanser, but suddenly pretty ballet pink accessories just seem so
I wasn’t planning on getting anything, really. I was just minding my business there in my local resale shop, walking up and down the aisles. I was waiting for the staff to rummage through the bag I had brought after doing my New Year closet cleaning. It wasn’t a big

We’re headed towards the halfway mark of this little wardrobe remix fashion challenge, and what have I learned from limiting to myself to 10 pieces of clothes for 10 days? The first lesson is: I really do wear a lot of workout clothes. Like any other fleece jacket-wearing busy mama,
