When that new Netflix Marie Kondo show came out, I couldn’t even finish it. The idea of decluttering — especially clothes — does not compute to me. Hi, my name is Meghan, I have a wardrobe problem. The problem is, my closet bar just SNAPPED under the weight of all of my clothes. I’m…

LOST: my inspiration. FOUND: this stuff…
So I just told you in my boat post that I’ve been struggling with finding “inspiration.” That’s pretty harsh, but it’s true. I’ve been actively searching for, but (largely) failing to find, things that excite me.

Dress For…?
Who do you dress for? So it’s often assumed (by men) that women dress for men. When straight men feel like they can comment on how you look or what you’re wearing, it’s just another reminder that in (Straight) Man-O-Vision, everything exists to be pleasing to them.

Can Men Wear Clothes?
It started with the romper. Sorry, romphim. Men, are you ok? Alright, I hate to say it, but #NotAllMen lost their minds when the romphim, which is a romper for men (?), started making headlines early this spring. Masculinity so fragile that you can wear a shirt, and you can wear shorts, but…

Dressing For The Weather: New York City Edition
Summer: “Which of my pretty pretty dresses should I wear today?” *five minutes later* “Ok, I’m ready!” Fall: “I can pull off this sundress! I’ll just put a sweater over it. And some jeans under it. And a down coat. I’m still tan from summer, so you can hardly tell that my extremities are turning…
