What You Won’t Find Here

It has been a while since I’ve shared any sort of purpose behind this space. Pointed North, my little corner of the internet. A place that continues to evolve and flow with my life. For which I am beyond thankful. We’ve all been navigating a whole set of “new normals” this year. Truly unbelievable when you sit back and think about it. But let’s keep it light, shall we?

I’ve been navigating a tremendous amount of personal growth since becoming a mom and ultimately losing my job during the pandemic. Personal growth, to me, is a continuous scenario. But I’m not sure there has been another time in my life when I’ve been tested more than this year. I feel like a lot of you can relate. My rambles would go on for days if I dove into gory details, so I’m going to stick with sharing my clarification on how I want to show up here. In my corner. For all of you.

What you won’t find here

Pictures of my manicure or details on my Starbucks coffee order. I just feel like this is a thing to do on Instagram. I don’t get manicures and prefer black coffee at home.

All new clothes, all the time. I’m trying to be better about utilizing every article in my closet, even if it’s a few years old. If I feature an older item in photos, I try my best to link something similar.

Negativity. I simply don’t have time for it.

Perfection. I decided using “perfection” as an excuse is ridiculous. Sometimes I don’t even have time to brush my hair during the day (thanks, Emmett!) but I want to show up here even when it’s hard. Why? I take this responsibility seriously and I simply love it. Actually, letting go of the idea of perfection has only aided my creativity in the best way possible.

What you will find

Products I love and clothes I feel good in. I never share anything I don’t absolutely love and wouldn’t recommend to you 10 times over. I’m huge on comfort and ease (see cozy Old Navy sweater above) and you can count on my looks to reflect that while staying relevant with current trends.

Thoughtful topics. I love talking style and fashion, trust me. But I also have about 1,000 conversations with myself daily that end up on here in some way or another. Writing creatively is something I’ve committed to working on and plan to improve on.

Me. In my clothes, in my photography, in my writing. Because I really don’t see the point in pretending or acting like anything else.

You still here? Thank you, thank you, thank you for reading.
