Sometimes You Forge Ahead and It's Delightful

Nov 17, 2025
If you've been reading the blog for a while? You know I keep it pretty candid around here! So when I tell you, it was just one of those days?... It was, one of those days! The closet was raring to go. The girl? Not so much. I was horribly underslept, it was a very dark morning (aka not photography friendly) - but I'm so glad I didn't throw in the towel. The photos turned out beautifully regardless of the obstacles! I love the grain, deep shadows and soft vintage / cinematic feel. A good reminder that creative moments aren't born from perfection; sometimes, they're born from perseverance. So let this serve as a reminder to show up and stay open in your creative process. You just might surprise yourself, and that's, a truly wonderful thing!
And... let's take a moment for the star of the show, yes?! My gorgeous vintage scarf. I've typically shied away from silk scarves for the most part (maybe they've felt too mature?), however I'd love to start adding them to my outfits again. I'd love to wear one around my neck with a simple vintage sweater, tied to a bag, or even as a belt. For this look? I kept the styling pretty simple and wore my beloved ribcage bell Levi's jeans and a bodysuit I bought from H&Myearsss ago. Oh and my Jeffrey Campbell wedge sandals. They're 10+ years old and soon they'll be vintage. Definitely never letting go of those!
Welp, that's about it, friends. Thank you for all your sweet DM's on the Girl & Closet reboot. I'm SO excited to hear you're excited too. Even Martin (my husband, if you're new here) let out a squeal & yay when I'm told him the news. Aww, babe, you ole' softie! Until next week friends! xo
