40 Times Brides Decided To Make Their Own Wedding Dresses And Looked Beyond Stunning

Americans spend on average $33,391 on their wedding day. And while most lovebirds are willing to pay $540 on average for the cake, the wedding gown can set them back $1,509. If the pair are high spenders, the budget for the dress can soar up to $3,158, according to a study by The Knot.

While today’s post isn’t an official capsule wardrobe, it might as well be! Today I thought I would break down 25 of my most-worn style staples and share options for low, medium and high budgets

Since spring is here (or almost here for many of us!), I decided to focus on the wardrobe essentials I’m able to wear in the spring, summer and fall seasons.

Obviously if this was a year-round essentials post I’d include a few heavy sweaters and coats, but figured we’re all over the cold weather right now anyway. If y’all like this post, I’ll be sure...

13 Spooky Christina Rossetti Poems

The first book of poetry I ever owned was an anthology of Christina Rossetti poems, and I’ve always been struck by her very distinctive style. Though her writing is gorgeous, it’s characterised by an intensely Victorian morbidity which makes it perfect for Halloween! On a related note, try these spooky books for Halloween too! #1. Remember Remember me when I am gone away, Gone far away into the silent land; When you can no more hold me by the hand, Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay. Remember me when no more day by day You tell me of...
