6 Ways to Style a Black Jumpsuit

It’s no secret that I’ve had a lot going on in the last month or so.  My family and I moved across the country, I quit my job and we moved into a brand new house.  I can’t hide that all these big changes haven’t always been super easy for me.  It’s been a roller coaster of emotions.  I’ve felt excited, stressed, sad and hopeful all at the same time.  When I’m going through all these ups and downs, I often lose my sense of creativity with my outfits.  I get into a rut of wearing the same clothes over and over again in an effort to stay comfortable and happy.

My Thoughts on a New Life and Blogging

May 13, 2019 by Katie Haller

Mommy and me

I have so many thoughts racing through my mind about all the changes happening in my life right now, so I thought I’d sit down and share some of them.  First of all, thank you to everyone for your support with my news about quitting my job and moving back to Michigan.  My husband and I have been faced with a lot of big decisions in the last year and it’s always hard when you are trying to make the best choice for yourself and your family.  I definitely appreciate all your comments and support as we move on to the next step chapter of our lives.
