Wow, so this is my first style post in a while. There’s been a LOT going on lately, let’s just say that, much like this time last year, I’m taking advantage of everything that Philadelphia has to offer because the next few weekends here may be the last for a while. That, paired with a pandemic that’s left me wearing and re-washing the same three pairs of shorts all summer hasn’t made for very great outfit content.

We did find some time this weekend to dress up a bit and feign some normalcy: a leisurely stroll around Queen Village, Bloody Marys al fresco at brunch, and denim perhaps too thick for the otherwise balmy August morning.

My body feels very different than it did six months ago, which is something I’m personally struggling with in a huge way. Putting care into my appearance is helping me feel a bit more like myself. If you’re in a similar place, be kind. Intermittent fast if you want to. Go for a walk. Consider your gut health. We’ll all be just fine.
