The Wholehearted Wardrobe is turning 1! Thank you all so much for being here as I’ve navigated my first year of blogging, shared my feelings about getting dressed, talked with you about my day-to-day and worked to manage the growing audience I have. When I asked you on Instagram what you’d like to see as…
Brand to Know: Maven Women
I was first introduced to the Maven Women brand when I attended the Free the Slaves Fashion for Freedom event earlier this summer.

Late Night Writing in Loyale Studio + Giveaway
Hi friends – gosh, the days are really just flying by. How are you all doing? I have so many cool brands I want to write about, but have fallen so far behind with everything since traveling to Paris and Amsterdam (I know…tough life!). Beyond that, you might have noticed my site was hacked while…

On Turning 28 and Looking to the Stars
It’s my birthday today, and it’s one of those things I increasingly greet with mixed feelings. Not so much because I’m upset about getting older – I actually am glad to be getting older, to be finding my footing and my style, as well as becoming more confident. It’s more about the bittersweetness of it,…

Summer 10×10 Recap: What I Wore and What I Learned
I just completed the summer 10×10 (founded by Lee Vosburgh of Style Bee), which challenges capsule wardrobe aficionados to wear only ten items of clothing (including shoes!) for ten days – as ten different outfits. It can sound a little daunting, but it’s a really fun way to get creative with your wardrobe and practice…
How to be a minimalist when you sweat a lot
This post is in collaboration with my dear friend Andrea, who always keeps her cool. Guys. There is something we need to talk about. Sweating. If this 10×10 has revealed anything to me thus far, it is that being a wardrobe minimalist is extremely hard when you sweat a lot. Seriously, I am doing laundry like,…
Fashion for Freedom: An Inspiring Evening for Change
Last night, I had the pleasure of attending the Free the Slaves Fashion for Freedom event in New York City with my dear friend Cait of Cait Shea Designs. I’ve covered her previously on the blog if you’d like to check out her fantastic designs! We spent the entire day in the city leading up…
