Owl Always Love You
Whenever my husband takes pictures with me, I inevitably get silly and forget how to pose. I think that even though I’ve been blogging for somewhere around four years now (well, fashion blogging; I blogged about other things long before that), I still feel awkward when people I know in real life know about it. Or talk to me about it. Or ask how many followers I have (no idea, honestly! I rarely look) or whether something I’m wearing is from a sponsor, or make a big deal out of a package I’ve gotten from someone because of blogging… It just feels odd. I think because my online presence —…

Man of Style: Red Velvet, Corduroy, and Koa Wood Rings
Well, I’m sort of back! Since I’m still not quite adjusted to life with a baby (aka… waking up every three or four hours at night to feed him), I thought I’d have my husband step in with a style post to get this month started off with some hotness and love. It is February, after all, the month of mush and dreams and romance, right? So I present to you the love of my life, in all his handsomeness. This post is especially exciting for him, as it’s the first time he’s been the recipient of a sponsor item instead of me. Every time I get something in the…

Love and Fall Leaves
On Sunday, my husband and I went in search of some good fall trees to shoot photos, and we found the perfect location in the parking lot of a school close to where I grew up. They have the most gorgeous red and yellow trees right now! Oh my goodness, I could have died. And in a moment of rarity, I let my husband do the picture-taking. I’m so picky about pictures, and I definitely need to learn to relax and let him do his thing, because he is an excellent photographer. I’m just a control freak when it comes to taking outfit pictures, ha! It was a lot of…

Lovebirds
You guys, I just realized that I can blog from my phone. So long as I’m either blogging pictures from my phone or have previously uploaded them somewhere, I can use the (free!!!) WordPress app to blog right on my mobile device. I mean, awesome or what!? I am seriously pumped that I can blog with one finger on my couch while snacking on an apple that I shouted at in German a few minutes ago for falling on the floor. Because yeah. That’s what I’m doing. Don’t worry, I washed the apple. And the German thing wasn’t as epic as it sounds. I only know how to say yes/no,…

Man of Style: Blazers and Bow Ties
I haven’t done a style post featuring Mr. Owl for so long, so I was really excited when Tie Society offered us the opportunity to try out their services. They’re a pretty cool company where you can choose an option to have one, three, five, or ten ties or bow-ties a month, and when you’re done with the tie or bow-tie, you can send it back and select another one. I’ve heard of these kinds of services for women, but this is the first men’s type of a trade-off I’ve ever seen! We went up to Seattle for the day, and got at least five people complimenting him on…
