I Love Clothes

I like to think I’ve curated a very user friendly wardrobe with designer classics, shopping trip one-offs, and terrific sale finds. I think I have pretty great style sense. I must, because my friends call me for fashion advice all the time!

Hard to believe you’re 21! William Henry, you make everything better from your amazingly well-timed jokes, to the care you give everyone around you, your chess game challenges, indefatigable lust for physics, unrelenting hope for the Giants, and your ability to work hard/play hard is simply inspiring! Just being in your zone, makes us all want to do and be better! You made me see how much love my heart could hold ❤️

I write about her experiences and insights on the Violet&Verve blog and in the Newsletter. Check out what you can learn from her at the link in my bio. And connect!
