I’m so excited that this post is finally here! It’s been a month + a few weeks since we’ve been back from Africa, and I’ve finally had time to decompress and reflect on the trip. If you want to read about the itinerary details (where we stayed, what we did),…
We got a taste of slightly cooler temps on the East Coast last week, but that doesn’t mean summer is over yet. While stores may be piling their window mannequins with scarves and sweaters, we’re still out here sweating in sundresses. I’ve been getting a lot of questions about my…
Confessions of a recovering shopaholic: I almost never buy anything full price these days. I’ll admit I indulge in the occasional splurge here and there, but mostly, everything I buy is on mega sale. No shame in my frugal game. And there’s no better time to find great deals on…
Now that I’ve been back in the same zip code for more than 3 days in a row, I’ve had a chance to get this blog post into decent shape. By now y’all are well aware that we recently spent 10 days on safari in Botswana, and it was ah-mah-zing.…

I’m really excited about this blog post because thrifting is a huge passion of mine. And I’m excited to share some of my knowledge with you! I asked y’all to send me some questions on Instagram and you really came through. There were so many good ones that I’m going…
The thesis of this blog, from a sartorial standpoint, is mixing vintage with contemporary brands: not everyone can and wants to rock a 100% vintage wardrobe (myself included). Vintage rules because it’s totally unique and a more sustainable way to shop. And current brands rule because they’re more accessible and…
Confession: Up until a few months ago, the last time I wore Tevas, I was a kid. Like, a single digits kid. But Tevas have been coming back in a major way these past few years (thanks, I’m sure, to a genius marketing team). And I want in on this…
It’s been a minute since I shared a vintage shop with y’all. And, to be honest, I almost don’t want to tell you about this one and keep all her stuff for myself. Muahahahaha *evil laugh* But seriously, I can honestly say that every single item in Luxie Vintage’s shop…
