Dressing for Your Office Holiday Party
So I love going to my office’s holiday party. It’s pretty much all of my favorite things–dressing up, free food, free drinks, and dancing!

Happy Birthday! 3 Things I Learned from Starting a Style Blog
A year ago, I decided to start a style blog. It started out as a fleeting idea–I had taken a picture of my outfit for a happy hour, and I felt bad uploading yet another outfit picture to my instagram.
