If you follow me on Instagram and watch my stories, you know I’ve been thinking a lot about the cost and accessibility of fashion. I’ve let my privilege get in the way of offering a broad variety of brands and price points on Wardrobe Oxygen. Also, I have boycotted certain brands because of my personal…
Last year, my mom moved from the house we lived in for 40 years to a smaller rowhome closer to where my sister and I live. Wanting to simplify her life, she had no need for such a large home, and didn’t want to continue dealing with the repairs and maintenance required for an old…
Since I entered my 40s, I felt my hair was getting thinner, but didn’t really think much about it until my husband mentioned it. Being a foot taller, he could see the issue – he said he could clearly see my scalp and my part was a lot wider when just a few months ago…

I’ve been there. I’ve stood in front of my closet and hated every single thing on the hangers. That has been worn so many times if I have to wear it again I’ll scream. That shirt emphasizes my stomach. I wore that last time I saw these people. Those pants give me diaper butt by…
Thank you all for sticking with me through a wonky week on Wardrobe Oxygen. I’m looking forward to getting back into the rhythm and have some good things on the horizon. How does a review of white jeans sound? I want to get a full range of brands and as always will have detailed shots…
