For quite some time, I've been wanting to give my bedroom a facelift--making it fit the "cozy cottage" vibe I desired when I first bought this house 🏑
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Before starting my renovation journey, I created a mood board with my ideal home decor in mind πŸ›οΈ I knew that I wanted a wood dresser that combined modern farmhouse with classic elements, and @sauderusa 100% delivered! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
This stunning oak dresser immediately brought serious #SauderStyle (aka new life and so much beautiful warmth) to the room 🀎 It's incredibly sturdy, has so much space, and was honestly quite easy to assemble (with a friend) πŸ› οΈ I still catch myself staring at it each time I walk by 😍

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I spent the day baking pumpkin bread with my sister, reading The Brothers Hawthorne while sipping my (multiple) cups of coffee, and watching the blustery rainy weather πŸŽƒ

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I don't pick up many spring or summer books (since I dislike those seasons), but I typically find myself reading more cozy or witchy novels during autumn! πŸ‚ Doing this helps me to fully embrace my favorite time of the year πŸ™ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
It'll come as no surprise to you that, thanks to @steepedinlore, I've also been sipping on many mugs of tea while I dive into my autumnal reads πŸ«– Make sure you use my code ESPRESSO10 to get a discount on your seasonal tea purchase! 🀎

Hi friends--what have I missed? 🀎
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
All I'm hearing on repeat in my head is Jacob Black's ridiculous, "Where the hell have you been, loca?" πŸ˜† I missed you all SO MUCH this past month and a half 😭
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
So to answer the werewolf's question:
🫢🏼 I got to spend a week with one of my best buddies in Ohio and we made friendship blankets, got matching Gilmore Girls tattoos, went to high tea, watched a ton of Seinfeld, avoided a tornado, and shopped til we dropped (it was the best time)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ“– @chronicacademia and I have been buddy-reading like our lives depend on it for quite some time, but actually meeting in person and being able to geek out over books together face-to-face was the absolute best
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ₯€ The chance to meet one of my favorite authors during the same trip? Couldn't pass that up! I attended the Foxglove book tour in Columbus for @authoradalyngrace and it was such a surreal experience
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸͺ΄ I've begun to work on some home projects--finally turning my cozy cottage into exactly that--and I'm loving every second of it! Very thankful for some incredible partnerships that will be coming to this page real soon
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ₯° I’ve spent so much quality time with my family, including celebrating my sister’s birthday with her making such precious memories. So grateful for my incredible tribe who have held me up and brought so much comfort lately. 
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ’” The life update that I posted on my stories on Sept 1 explained the hardest part of why I disappeared for so long. I know that there are great plans for my future even as I stumble my way through the now (if you missed it and are confused, feel free to DM me)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Now, tell me something that you're looking forward to this autumn πŸ‚

What to Wear When The Temperature Won’t Make Up Its Mind

This article was originally published in March 2020. Edited and republished in April 2022.

A denim jacket is a staple in every closet, but it’s especially handy for spring weather when the temperature won’t make up its mind!

You get in your car to go run errands in the morning and need to run the heat. You leave Target two hours later and could be comfortable in a light long-sleeve. Then you go on a late afternoon walk and find yourself sweating. Or maybe you’re experiencing what I am right now and one day is sunny and warm, while the next is cool and damp. Either way, I’ve come up with the formula for the perfect outfit for these confusing spring days – and it involves the iconic denim jacket.

I purchased this particular denim jacket several years back, and I’m bummed that since then, it’s not only sold out but there haven’t been any others released that are similar (with the quirky star print embroidery). However, any denim jacket will do the trick. You could opt for colored denim, printed denim, cropped, oversized, with a hoodie, etc. Any denim jacket will suit this look!


outfit details
top | similar jacket | pants | similar sneakers | bag | similar earrings | similar necklace

The denim jacket is the solution to all of these up-and-down weather struggles.

Not only that, but it really elevates any outfit to include a “third piece.” I’ve touched on this particular topic before, but it really is just the simple trick of an item of clothing in addition to a top and bottom. Denim jackets are classic, and if you’re working from home, they’re ideal for throwing on to walk the dog or adding over a button-up pajama top to make an outfit appear “work appropriate” for a video chat.

I styled my denim jacket with a short sleeve knit and my favorite, stretchy, high-waist pants. Then it was a simple task to add a necklace, sneakers, and a cute bag to complete the casual look. This could seriously be worn for a plethora of occasions, but you’ll most often find me in something nearly identical to this – or this outfit itself – when I’m running errands or grabbing coffee with a friend.

I agree that a layering piece really elevates your outfit and it’s super useful when the weather is crazy! Lately it’s been chilly in the mornings and warm in the afternoon so this is the perfect outfit!

I love this outfit! The UK right now feels like it can’t make up it’s mind about the weather, but it is pretty cold still. The other day I wore a light jacket and then yesterday I had my big winter coat back on, it is crazy how much the weather can change xx

Do you plan your reads around the seasons? 🍁
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I don't pick up many spring or summer books (since I dislike those seasons), but I typically find myself reading more cozy or witchy novels during autumn! πŸ‚ Doing this helps me to fully embrace my favorite time of the year πŸ™ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
It'll come as no surprise to you that, thanks to @steepedinlore, I've also been sipping on many mugs of tea while I dive into my autumnal reads πŸ«– Make sure you use my code ESPRESSO10 to get a discount on your seasonal tea purchase! 🀎

πŸ” FUN FACT ABOUT THIS PHOTO: My sweet and smooshy calico cat, Nona, decided that scarf was her snuggle spot and curled right upβ€”she makes the cutest prop, doesn’t she? πŸ₯Ή

SURPRISE! I'm going to begin adding home content to this page and I'm incredibly excited about it πŸ₯³ I've been slowly but surely transforming my house into the cozy little cottage of my dreams and the first thing to get a rework was the gallery wall in my bedroom, thanks to @desenio πŸ–ΌοΈ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I've been shopping from Desenio for YEARS now and very highly recommend their stunning art prints and frames, so of course, the opportunity to be a #DesenioPartner for this project was a dream come true πŸ™ŒπŸΌ In fact, I have gallery walls featuring their posters in three different rooms in my home--that's how much I love them 😍

What are some books that you've made your entire p What are some books that you've made your entire personality? πŸ™ˆ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Truthfully, it doesn't matter how long you've followed me, you probably already know that I love all things Shadow and Bone 🫢🏼 I've been going through a Grishaverse reread this year and loving every second of it, but nothing will compare to those first three books! πŸ₯°
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I was late to the game with this trilogy, reading it for the first time just a little before the show first premiered, but it quickly became a core part of my personality πŸ˜‰ Now, I own two signed copies of the first book (one is the special edition hardcover and one is the show tie-in) πŸ“– And no joke, 90% of my candles are related to the Grishaverse in some way (thank you @janzywaxco for providing the perfect scents for my many rereads and rewatches πŸ•―οΈ)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
When was the last time you reread your favorite series? πŸ“š

Hi friends--what have I missed? 🀎
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
All I'm hearing on repeat in my head is Jacob Black's ridiculous, "Where the hell have you been, loca?" πŸ˜† I missed you all SO MUCH this past month and a half 😭
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
So to answer the werewolf's question:
🫢🏼 I got to spend a week with one of my best buddies in Ohio and we made friendship blankets, got matching Gilmore Girls tattoos, went to high tea, watched a ton of Seinfeld, avoided a tornado, and shopped til we dropped (it was the best time)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ“– @chronicacademia and I have been buddy-reading like our lives depend on it for quite some time, but actually meeting in person and being able to geek out over books together face-to-face was the absolute best
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ₯€ The chance to meet one of my favorite authors during the same trip? Couldn't pass that up! I attended the Foxglove book tour in Columbus for @authoradalyngrace and it was such a surreal experience
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸͺ΄ I've begun to work on some home projects--finally turning my cozy cottage into exactly that--and I'm loving every second of it! Very thankful for some incredible partnerships that will be coming to this page real soon
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ₯° I’ve spent so much quality time with my family, including celebrating my sister’s birthday with her making such precious memories. So grateful for my incredible tribe who have held me up and brought so much comfort lately. 
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ’” The life update that I posted on my stories on Sept 1 explained the hardest part of why I disappeared for so long. I know that there are great plans for my future even as I stumble my way through the now (if you missed it and are confused, feel free to DM me)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Now, tell me something that you're looking forward to this autumn πŸ‚
What was the last book someone recommended to you What was the last book someone recommended to you that became a favorite? 🀎
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Okay, this wasn't the last one for me, but it was the FIRST book that @chronicacademia recommended to me… and it became an instant fave 😍
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
The Bone Houses is a cozy-creepy (aka, not scary, but just a little eerie, while also being totally cozy and atmospheric) fantasy with incredible disability rep and a truly creative story 🦴 If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend it for your "spooky season" TBR πŸŽƒ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
What's a cozy-creepy book that you enjoy? πŸ™ˆ

Do you prefer to savor one book for an extended pe Do you prefer to savor one book for an extended period of time, or do you tend to fly through your reads pretty quickly? ⏳
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Normally, I would say that I fly through books--inhaling them more than savoring them πŸ˜… But over the last week, I spent time buddy-reading The Fragile Threads of Power... and taking my time with it β˜•οΈ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
There was something really nice about slowing down and reading little bits at a time, then discussing them with my friend, then reading more, then theorizing about the plot, then reading a little more, etc. 🀎 It felt good to just appreciate the book rather than gobbling it up (though I know I'll go right back to that with whatever I read next πŸ˜†)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
If you tend to fly through your reads, what's the last book that made you WANT to take your time with it and savor each moment? πŸ“–
