What’s with all the talk about barrel jeans? People want to know what body type looks good with barrel jeans. What shoes to wear with barrel jeans. Whether barrel jeans will stay in style.  And some people love them and some hate them. Why are they such a thing? And do we really need another jean style in our wardrobe?

I’m often asked for advice about what’s worth investing in and what’s not when it comes to your wardrobe.

Over the years I’ve come to form a solid opinion on this topic because I’ve made a few mistakes when it comes to saving versus splurging so let’s learn from them, shall we?

Most of us don’t fit into one style type. Kind of like being a little bit Country and a little bit of Rock & Roll. It’s fun to think about the facets of your style and how to contrast them. Maybe you’re a little bit of a TomBoy but you also have a side that loves chic, luxurious pieces. Or maybe you love minimalistic silhouettes, but you also have a polished, glamorous, blingy side when it comes to jewelry. I’m often contrasting my preppy/classic style with my hippy/boho side.
