How to use Poshmark

In celebration of #SecondhandSeptember, I’m sharing how to buy and sell pieces for your wardrobe on Poshmark. Buying secondhand is a great way to add ethically made and fair trade pieces to your wardrobe without paying full price. I use Poshmark to sell pieces from my wardrobe so I can buy (new to me) pieces, from fair trade, ethically made, or luxury brands that I admire.

Mindfulness | My Journaling Routine

One of my daily acts of mindfulness is journaling. I had several diaries when I was little and get lost in words. My journaling routine has become even more regular during the pandemic with “more time” I find it easier to sit and decompress by writing everything that can get stuck in my head. In fact I find the physical act of writing to be so much more creatively inspiring, over the last few…

With my background in Interior Design, I’ve intentionally designed our bedroom to be minimal. Which is surprising because the rest of our home is far from minimal.

Wear It Wednesday | Secondhand Shopping

Confession: I am not good at secondhand shopping. With the convenience of the internet, I really love scrolling through my favorite shops and brands online.
