Are You A Saver Or A Purger?

January 19, 2021 • 10 Comments

dinner jacket

It’s a new year and one resolution that I’ve heard over and over is 'I’m going to streamline my closet.' Sometimes this can be tougher than it seems. Obviously you loved what's in your closet or you wouldn't have bought it in the first place right?! Well, that's how I always … [Read more...] about Are You A Saver Or A Purger?

Spring is springing! It’s so beautiful to see al Spring is springing! It’s so beautiful to see all the trees blooming and the colors of the flowers are so stunning! Spring is such a time of hope and renewal and after the year we’ve had, much needed!  Now that I’m vaccinated and can get out I’m so excited to start wearing my clothes again. It’s like everything in my closet is brand new having worn nothing but sweats most of the year! Since we never know what the weather will be like here (the saying is “If you don’t like the weather in Cleveland, wait 5 minutes! 😂) I start out the day in layers. Swipe to see how I layered my @grayson button up over a jumpsuit. The fit on these button ups is amazing and they’re so comfortable. Use the code MICHELELEE for $25 off your full price order. I love the navy, but there are so many colors and patterns to choose from!  Outfit Details  Shirt - @grayson
