Weekly Reads and Finds

This was a fun one. I love a wardrobe that is so versatile that you can wear looks that are inspired by different decades. I tried to achieve that with this fall capsule wardrobe.

It was “back to homeschool” this week so bear with me. I didn’t have a lot of free time to work on this, and actually didn’t start it until Tuesday night :/

There is a reason why shopping on a budget is a highly searched term.

This week I am focusing on shopping for a wardrobe on a budget.
