Is there even a line between frumpy and stylish anymore? I don't really think so. I wear this comfy dress at least once a week and I couldn't feel better about it. I love that it's black and I can't get enough of the stripes--I think it looks great with everything, which is why I wear it so much. (other than the fact that it's basically an oversized tee shirt).

Hi friends, happy Friday! I'm so excited to be sharing my first recipe sneak peek with you today. Like I mentioned last week, every Friday for the next 4 weeks I'll be hosting a giveaway, so by the end of it, four of you will have won a signed copy of my book.
Each week we're sharing an ingredient and a recipe from the book--The Big 15 Paleo Cookbook is divided into 15 chapters based on some of the most widely-used Paleo ingredients, so we're super excited to share a few of them with you before the book hits stores on August 16. This week's ingredient is broccoli, and the recipe is a gorgeous broccoli and arugula salad with bacon. It's so good--I hope you love it!
Check out the recipe below and make sure to scroll all the way to the bottom of this post so you can enter to win a signed copy of the book!

I feel like I've gone on and on about creating a capsule wardrobe, and I've made good progress getting rid of all the clothes I don't like in my closet--now I'm in that weird in-between place of still having a lot to get rid of but needing a few new things to round out my wardrobe. I think not giving myself a deadline made this whole thing a little more difficult than it needed to be, so now that we're moving in September, I've decided to finally finish up the purging of my closet by the end of August so that I can live a month with basic pieces and then rebuild a few things once we get to the Bay Area. What do you think?
Having said that, I still catch myself wanting to buy a bunch of new things that I don't really need yet--so I found myself creating this little outfit mood board the other day. Being super intentional about only owning great pieces I can wear again and again means having a few outfit "drafts," right? (Also it's kind of a fun way to shop without buying a bunch of stuff.) Either way, here's an outfit that I don't own, but would love to have hanging in my closet.

I'll be posting more What I Wore looks again starting next week! Things have been so crazy lately that I haven't had a chance to shoot any with my photographer. Let me know if you like these kinds of posts, though, because I've always wanted to share them but wasn't super sure about it.
