Click. Read. Love. + Columbus Day Weekend Sales

How do you find a light at the end of the tunnel when there’s so much darkness? A question I’m sure many of us are  struggling with this week (and honestly the past few months). Turn on the news any given day and there’s tragedy and sadness. What happened in Las Vegas this week is beyond heartbreaking and it’s difficult not to feel a sense of helplessness. I’d be lying if I didn’t admit it feels quite trivial to talk about fashion and outfits. But what I’ve recognized about living through these tragedies is that we have to find normalcy, and the good, in our daily lives. Finding joy in the little moments, spreading kindness and using whatever power we do have to create change. Wherever the weekend takes you, hopefully there’s some laughter and love mixed in.
