Answering the Questions from Jennifer…
What would be your one tip for a new blogger?
Plan ahead & be consistent! 

Favorite place to shop?
Nordstrom! 
Online shopper or in store?
Online! So convenient. 
Describe your go to outfit.
Dark, flattering skinnys (these are my current favorites!), a slouchy tee (I live in this one!), and oversized cardigan & ankle booties.
What is on your bucket list for this Fall?
A date to the pumpkin patch, Iowa State’s Homecoming festivities & football game, and taking advantage of pumpkin-flavored everything!
Where is your favorite place that you have traveled to?
I’ve traveled quite a bit and while I love a white, sandy beach, my favorite spot is Zion National Park in Utah. The beauty there is surreal & it’s incredibly peaceful.
What is your favorite part of blogging?
All of the new friendships I’ve created and having a creative outlet that I’m totally in control of!
Red or White wine?
Both, please?! I’m always stocked at home with bottles of Sonoma Cutrer (my go-to) Chardonnay as well as Meiomi’s Pinot Noir. 
Does your Sunday Funday consists of PJ’s on the couch or an outdoor adventure?  
Unless the weather is absolutely perfect, I love spending Sundays cozied up on the couch with a cup of coffee, a good book, and Football on TV.

One item of clothing that everyone should have in their closet.
A timeless wool coat. I love this, this, this one. All 3 of these are investments but you will be able to wear them even as trends evolve and change. Plus the minute you put on a coat like this, your outfit is totally amplified, even if all you have underneath are jeans and a tee.
