THE MOST TREASURED ITEM IN YOUR CLOSET

the-most-treasured-item-in-your-closet

Whether you’re a regular reader or an occasional visitor, Wear You Are Now is a place for you- my fellow kindred spirits who believe that fashion plays an integral role in making memories. And if you’re picking up what I’m putting down, I can venture a guess that some of your most memorable and impactful life moments (both good and bad) are tied to fashion, too. I remember what I was wearing the day my little brother came home from the hospital. I remember what I was wearing the first time I ever swam in the ocean…

HINDSIGHT IN 2020

Hello, old friends. It’s a new year; it’s a new decade; and there’s oh so much I want to tell you. I kicked off 2019 declaring my word of the year- a word to use as a guiding factor in my personal growth, my daily life, and the decisions I would make in the months ahead. A word that would help mold my mindset and make my goals reachable. And that word was balance. Did I achieve it? Perhaps a little. Did I do it well? Perhaps not. 2019 was a year of transition. Not necessarily in…

YAY OR NAY? CLOTHING SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES

It finally happened. I gave this whole “clothing rental” thing a try. Other than a one-item/one-time foray into Rent-the-Runway, this was my first real go at it. I know, I know- I might be the last one to arrive at this party. In my defense, renting your clothes has always felt like an odd concept to me. As a fan of the “shop your closet” concept (which I talk about HERE), remixing my current wardrobe is the way I prefer to go. And if I am going to spend, I’d rather focus on building…

I AM A…

What do you want to be when you grow up? Throughout our lives, we’re asked this question time and time again. When we’re little, our answers tend to be born out of our wildest imaginations. A baseball player, an astronaut, or a princess, we might have replied. (Or, in my case, a ballerina.) When we got a bit older, we were asked again. And as we naturally grew and gained a better understanding of the world around us, our answers became more rooted in reality. A teacher, a fireman, a doctor, we might have answered. (Or in my…

WHAT’S THE WORD?

Going out on a bit of a limb here to admit I hold an unpopular opinion. Brace yourself, because here it comes. New Year’s Resolutions are bull sh*t. (Pausing here to let that sink in.) I’m 100% team self-improvement and self-reflection, but waiting for a new year to identify something we want to be doing better? Nope. Feeling like a failure if you don’t achieve your goal after a few months? Nope. You can read a bit more about my feelings on the topic here. According to an article I recently read in The…

MY GROWN UP CHRISTMAS LIST

If you’re like me, being three days out from Christmas puts you somewhere in the middle of a not even close to finished to-do list, a pile of incomplete wrapping, and a half-filled strewn about suitcase set aside for a trip home. ‘Tis the season, right?While the holidays account for some of the happiest, magical times of the year, they can also account for some of the hardest and most stressful, too. And if you do find yourself suffering from Christmas overload, odds are you’re not alone. Feeling down, exhausted and overwhelmed is a pretty…
