How to Wear Flares in 2022

October 4, 2022 by Katie H.

Flare jeans are back! But to be honest, I’m not sure if they were ever officially out. I think because skinny jeans took over for so long, most of us forgot about how we used to wear our flare jeans. Flare jeans have a special place in my heart. We have some good memories together. I wore them all through middle school, high school, and college, and even after college, they were still hanging around in my closet. But a few years ago, I decided that they just didn’t fit into my style anymore and I gave my last pair off to the thrift store.

How to Wear Overalls Over 35

May 23, 2022 by Katie H.

I haven’t owned a pair of overalls since 8th grade, so when I saw that they were making a comeback, I was hesitant to join in on the trend. For a long time, I didn’t think I was cool enough or young enough to pull off overalls as an adult, but this is why I never say never when it comes to fashion because here I am buying overalls at 37. When I saw this pair of short denim overalls at Gap Factory, I decided to try them.

Trends to Try- Gingham Dress

April 24, 2022 by Katie H.

One trend that I have had on my radar this spring is gingham. Gingham is a classic print and it’s been around for a long time, but this spring it’s hard to miss! I’ve been seeing gingham print everywhere in dresses, tops, skirts, and more. I have also been seeing it in all sorts of bold bright colors. I think it’s safe to say that gingham is a big trend for spring 2022!

Trends to Try- How to Style a Shacket

February 8, 2022 by Katie Haller

Shackets came on to my radar about a year ago. At first, I wasn’t crazy about the trend. I mean they kind of gave me a factory worker/ lumberjack vibe. But the more I saw them styled the more I started thinking that it might be a trend that I could try. They do serve a function as a jacket and I know that they can be versatile in my wardrobe, so I decided to be opened minded about them.

Trends to Try- Chelsea Boots

December 3, 2021 by Katie Haller

I’ve been on the hunt for a pair of Chelsea boots all fall. This was a trend that I have been wanting to try, but I wasn’t sure if it was for me. I feel like these chunky style boots can look a little too young and edgy for my style, but when I started to think about how practical they could be in the winter months I started to open up to them more and more. At first, I started looking at combat boots. I tried on a few pairs while I was out shopping and I just couldn’t get into them. It was something about the laces that I didn’t like, so then I shifted my focus to the Chelsea boots. I tried on a pair at every store I went to, but I just couldn’t find the right pair. Then finally I found a cute affordable pair of Chelsea boots (HERE) at Kohl’s. (Boots run big. I went down a half size.) They were under $40 and had everything I was looking for in a winter boot.
