I’m trying to be more deliberate about my purchases, and I spent a lot of time considering before buying these shorts. I wanted something more mature than my typical jean cutoffs, and I love the crisp, classic feel of these navy chinos. I decided to splurge a little for a pair from J. Crew, because … More Summer 2015 Capsule: Outfit 7

With summer picking up, I finally feel like I’m getting adjusted to my new life. I participated in an orientation at my job this week, and completed my first real project, which means that code I wrote is live on our website!

Tying a button-up shirt around my waist, however, is something I’m just trying out. This soft flannel top … More Summer 2015 Capsule: Outfit 5
