Hi First name / friend!
 
Girlfriend!! Are you so happy that Spring is finally here and the days are finally longer and the sunshine is shining longer?? I don’t know about you guys but the older I get the more the rainy gray skies make me sad! I truly look forward to the sun shining everyday. But you already know we didn’t come here to only talk about the weather! We came to talk closet — and how we can maximize it! 
 
If you’re new here or if you’ve been around since the beginning and just need a reminder. You will see me utilizing A LOT of the same pieces month after month — because again, we are utilizing what we already have in our closet and making as many outfits as we can with those pieces! So month after month even though the style it like a staple series will change the accessories and builder pieces will be ones we use over and over and over again. So let’s just jump on it!
 
 
style it like a
STAPLE
 
One thing about me? I love getting the most out of my wardrobe. This monthly segment is all about showing you how to make your closet work harder by styling one key piece in fresh, unexpected ways. Whether it’s something you already own or something new you’ve been eyeing, my goal is to help you see it through a new lens — and fall in love with it all over again.
 
Because when you learn to style something like a staple, it becomes more than just a one-time wear. It turns into a go-to. A favorite. A piece that makes getting dressed easier (and way more fun).
 
This Month’s Styling Feature: the camo jacket!
 
Camo is a neutral. There, I said it. 😆
 
I know some of you are reading this thinking, wow… she’s really lost it this time. But hear me out.
 
Think about camo the same way you think about leopard print (which, if you didn’t know, is also considered a neutral). The print is balanced, it’s made up of earthy tones, and it works with almost anything in your closet. When you look at it that way, it stops feeling like a bold statement piece and starts acting more like a base layer for an outfit.
 
This one had to make the list because I’ve heard the same thing over and over again:
“I love camo, but I never know how to style it.”
or
“I feel like there’s only one way to wear it.”
 
But the truth is, the styling possibilities are endless — especially when you start treating camo like the neutral staple it really is, instead of a loud print you have to work around.
 
So this month, we’re going to style a camo jacket multiple ways and show just how versatile this “not-so-basic” staple can actually be.
VANILLA CHAI PROTEIN LATTE
 
 
if you’ve been around here for even five minutes you already know I am borderline obsessed with two things lately: Ballerina Farm’s vanilla protein and Cowboy Colostrum. I swear I’ve been adding them to everything from smoothies to my morning coffee.
 
So naturally I had to figure out how to turn one of my favorite cozy coffee shop drinks into a protein-packed at-home version that actually keeps me full. This vanilla chai protein latte has the warm chai spices, creamy milk, and then the best part — a vanilla colostrum cold foam on top that makes it taste like something you’d order at a fancy coffee shop.
 
It’s cozy, creamy, packed with protein, and has quickly become one of my favorite little afternoon treats.
