The last time I saw my twin sister was in 2019. We haven’t celebrated our birthday together in years – we’ve almost always lived way too many miles apart for quick visits and life has pretty much gotten in the way of extended visits. A few years ago, she moved a little over five hours away from me…

My Favorite Outfits of 2019 {Part 1}
Hmmmm, so it seems that this is not just a retrospective of my outfits, but a look at some serious hairstyles too. I honestly hadn’t realized how much my hair has changed over the last 12 months. Anyway, here are some of my favorite outfits from the past year. I had to break things up into two parts because I couldn’t narrow things down to 12. LOL Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.

Bohemian Glam Caftan and Jeans
Have I mentioned how much I love caftans? I do. Seriously, Mrs. Roper had the right idea: throw on a colorful dress and call it a day. There’s no need to suck in, you don’t really have to worry about accessories {although she did wear some awesomely large bubble gumball necklaces}, and you’re comfortable all day long. I’ve been in one of those moods where I haven’t really felt like wearing a skirt or dress {my normal work day choice}, so I opted for this caftan. It’s so colorful and boho glam that even though I was comfortable, I felt like I was dressed up more than usual. My coworkers…
