Helping women love what they wear on a budget
It’s Labor Day, which means summer is now coming to an end. I always feel like this time of the year is bittersweet. I love fall and I am excited about cooler weather and getting back into a routine, but I also hate to see the summer go. I know that the cold weather and winter are right around the corner so it’s best to enjoy all the warm days while you can.
Today is my blogaversary. Yes, that’s a made-up word, but it’s my blog’s birthday and I want to celebrate it! Eight years ago I published my first blog post on Thrifty Wife Happy Life. It had no pictures, no links, and I had no expectations that anyone would actually read it. I had no idea what I was doing. I just knew that I had something I wanted to share and I wanted an outlet for it.
Over the last few years, I have made it a point to make my skincare routine a priority in my life. I used to be the girl who thought a quick makeup wipe before bed was all you needed, but as I got older I realized just how important a good skincare routine can be. I now look forward to my skincare routine every day. It’s a form of self-care for me and it only takes a few minutes out of my day.
Over on Instagram, I did a poll to see if you guys still like to see my real-life everyday outfits and an overwhelming amount of people said yes! I always feel like now that I don’t have a job to go to every day it gets harder to share the actual outfits I wear daily. I often find myself planning my outfits and staging most of them for my Instagram and blog content. I don’t think that there is anything wrong with wanting my content to look pretty, but not everything is always perfect pretty.
