so I think it’s about time I start looking for some cute spring pieces! Shopbop’s big sales are my favorite time to do this because I can get great quality items at huge discounts. Madewell Knot Front Tee // Super into knotted tees with high waisted jeans. This romper would be so cute for both casual + dressy wear and I love that it is a bit longer in the back

Becoming aware of this has helped me cut back on my plastic waste and seek out easy eco-friendly swaps, many of which I recently discovered in the Open Nature® Earth Day Box! Full of environmentally friendly Open Nature® products exclusively available in my local area at Jewel-Osco, they are also offered at a great value compared to other brands. Open Nature has thought of absolutely everything, from compostable* lawn & leaf bags to bamboo towels to plastic-free cold cups. When we were ready to pack it up for the day, all of the food waste and compostable products went into one of the small trash multipurpose bags and then straight into the organics/compost bin when we got home (make sure your area accepts these types of compostable products).

If you haven’t seen any of my previous Box of Style reviews, Box of Style is a seasonal luxury fashion + lifestyle subscription box curated by fashion designer Rachel Zoe. The Spring 2019 Box of Style was no exception, either, and this actually may be the most practical (for me) box that I’ve received to date. Here’s what came in the Box of Style for Spring 2019: While I’m not the hugest fashionista (I love clothes, but I’m all about that affordable fashion life, haha) and am not big into big name designers The total value of the Spring 2019 Box of Style is $425, which makes the $99.99 an absolute steal.

Seriously Good Freezer Meals + Vegan on a Budget (under $20) Maybe I’m old school, but I so much prefer a physical cookbook over reading a recipe on my phone. It’s not just a whole bunch of recipes, but also guides you step by step through the process of successfully batch shopping + cooking a ton of freezer meals at one time. I haven’t used Vegan on a Budget as much as I have Seriously Good Freezer Meals since I only just got it a few weeks ago, but so far so good! It’s been a hot minute since I’ve shared affordable fashion content on here, but it’s something I want to get back into because it’s something I’ve always loved.
