Spring Cleaning: Toxic Household Items Edition

Although we’re still inching our way into consistently warm weather here in NYC, I’ve already catapulted myself into spring cleaning mode.

Courtney here—and today I’m talking about a few non-toxic household item swaps I’ve made in the past few weeks that are a little “cleaner” than the ones I had before.

After I read about all of the toxic chemicals in everyday items, I decided to start slowly. I began with the items that appear to be the worst offenders, and will slowly build up my arsenal of cleaner, greener products from there.

Outfit To Try: Midi Slip Dresses & Ankle Boots

Don’t you just love it when you find a new staple outfit combination? I’ve been making some style goals as I’ve been purging my closet this past month, and one of them was to break out of my jeans + t-shirt rut.

Don’t get me wrong- I still love a great pair of jeans paired with a comfy tee. But I realized that from time to time I want to wear things with a little more personality, and today I’m sharing some inspiration for my current favorite outfit combo: midi slip dresses + ankle boots.

The great thing about midi dresses and ankle boots is that they work for so many different occasions. A midi slip dress can be dressed up or down, worn on its own in warm weather or topped with a jacket and layered with long sleeve knits when it’s cooler.

Wishlist: Denim Jumpsuits

While the weather is still being a commitment-phobe, spring fashion can get overcomplicated pretty fast. Enter the denim jumpsuit — it’s like a great pair of go-to jeans but with a top built in so you don’t even have to think about a top. WIN.

Coffee Walk: Paris In May

coffee walk is a series where i'll be sharing snippets of my mini adventures in different cities, usually while on tour. since i'm a musician, i'm on tour quite a bit and one of my favorite things about tour is that it takes me to some amazing places all over the world. the only catch is, since soundcheck usually starts around 3pm, the only stuff i really have time to do in most cities is get a coffee and take a walk.

Breezy Midi, Cobblestone City: Spring In San Juan

last month i finally got to check something major off my bucket list: wandering Old Town San Juan in Puerto Rico. it's such a beautiful city and the colorful buildings are 100 times more amazing in person. this outfit post is a favorite because i'm absolutely obsessed with this Cleobella dress- it's a fun midi length, super comfy, and looks awesome by itself or cinched with a cool belt. in this case, i paired it with one of my main wardrobe staples these days- the B Low the Belt Bri Bri in black & silver. they make this belt in like 10 color combos and i'm pretty sure i need to get them all. it's SO versatile. finished off with some super comfy sandals by Dolce Vita x Vanessa Mooney, this outfit was perfect for wandering the gorgeously uneven cobblestone streets of Old San Juan.
