My Sartorial Moments of 2020

My fashion moments in 2020 were too few and far between thanks to COVID19 😫 But what I managed to capture is still memorable to me, so I thought I'd share to inspire us in 2021!

Big Island, Hawaii

 

Kansas City, Missouri
 

Denver, Colorado

Yellowstone National Park

Loving Spring

We took advantage of our spring weather by getting serotonin from a weekend of outdoor picnics! Def rec making it IG worthy with flowers, food, and friends!

To save time, I bought most of the food from a local bakery and Costco.

We up-recycled these flowers from a friend's wedding!

To save money, this floral blanket was thrifted for $5!

My Sartorial Moments of 2019

I was feeling nostalgic while perusing past photos, so I thought I'd share my fave fashion moments from 2019. Let's pray for efficient vaccine distribution, herd immunity, and overseas travel in 2021!

Kyoto, Japan

 

Kansas City, Missouri, USA

London, England

Manhattan, Kansas, USA

Atlanta, Georgia, USA

Breakfast Champs

These are my current fave breakfast foods!!

I use the Soymilk (Kroger/Dillon's) and Speculoos Cookie Butter (Trader Joe's) to give my oatmeal more flavor and crunch.

This Starbucks iced coffee saves me money and time.  I <3 iced coffees!

If I had $$$

If I had an extra $15K I would buy the following dresses from D&G's 2015 Portofino line for spring and summer!

 

Portofino Printed Cotton Poplin Mini

 

Portofino Printed Silk-Chiffon Gown

 

Printed Silk Mini Dress

These dresses are all from 2015, so the links go to the current 2016 Portofino line with new prints in similar styles.  

*le sigh, so unaffordable....Will there ever be a Dolce&Gabbana collab with H&M or Target??  Probs not, but a girl can dream!

Life Hack: Toothpaste

If you run out of toothpaste and need a couple more days of toothpaste before you can buy more, cut your old tube in half!

A toothpaste tube is never squeezed out cleanly or completely.

Another fun life hack I use to buy myself more time before I have to head to the store.

Life Hack: Regrow Scallions

I tried out the Life Hack of re-growing green onions (aka scallions). It went well, but the new stalks never got to the same thickness and height as the original onions.

  

Ode to Oscar

Today we lost an inspiration. Oscar de la Renta had great vision and knew how to dress women.

Oscar's designs featured on this blog:
