Thrifted Christmas: TCTS Reclaimed Holiday Style Guide
A tertiary Instagram scroll on November 1 declared that Christmas commenced 24 hours post-Halloween. Typically, I’d roll my eyes but between election season fatigue, having recently devoured the new Martha Stewart documentary, and my perimenopausal hormone party, instead the twinkling DIY content inspired an undeniable urge to overhaul my entire holiday aesthetic—and document it.
I'm keeping it short and sweet this week, just like my nighttime routine. At the end of the day, the last thing I want to do is spend 20 minutes getting ready for bed. As you know, I'm all about streamlining and simplifying everything. My beauty nighttime routine reflects that. Taking time and intention, even if it's just 5 minutes, to tend to care for your face before bed makes a huge difference. When you fully clean your face and use quality products to enhance your skin- you wake up ...

Undergarments can make a major difference in your general comfort level. No one likes a wedgie-inducing pair of panties or a tight bra strap. You should feel comfortable with the base layers underneath your clothing. They should feel like skin like nothing is there. Like your literally "not wearing panties". Here are my top super comfortable, quality bras, panties, bodysuits, shapewear, and hosiery.

My “active capsule” consists of ten garments, two pairs of shoes, and two headbands. Activewear isn’t going anywhere. Especially after being at home nearly all of 2020. We’ve gotten used to being comfortable 24/7 and we will no longer settle for tight jeans or uncomfortable shoes. These days activewear is so comfortable it's basically like wearing pajamas but chic and sleek. That’s why I say INVEST because high-quality activewear has the softest fabrics and the longest wear.

The secret to eternal youth is sun protection. I’ve been wearing SPF 30 or higher on my face every single day since I was 22 years old and read that nugget in Allure magazine. Now that I actually live at the beach it’s more important than ever for me to be very mindful of sun protection.

You don’t need a lot of shoes! Yes, I really said that. 75% of your shoe wardrobe should be (stylishly) functional and (really important) comfortable. My summer shoe capsule has 4 pairs of shoes in it. One pair of wedges, flip flops, throwback sneakers, and a completely unfunctional heel. With these, I've got all the bases covered for any summer occasion whether it's going to brunch, on daily beach walks, running errands, or hosting a dinner party.

Layering is key in the early summer. The temperature is high in the day and low in the evenings. These days, comfortable clothing is what we are most comfortable wearing. Elastic waistbands are everything. Lightweight blouses and sweaters can save you on a windy day, air-conditioned restaurant, or in the freezer aisle at the store. You know how much I love scarves. Experiment with your scarves and see how many different ways you can wear them. Stay chic with unlimited accessories…
