Happy Tuesday Loves and to my Illustrious Sorors of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Happy Founders’ Day! Today we are going to talk about this gorgeous Yellow Chunky Crochet Cardigan + Konmari Method. I love how this look came together beautifully, it wasn’t one that I had to give much thought to. It’s just ME from head to toe. The chunky crochet cardigan is in my favorite color, it’s eye catching and incredibly soft and I’m wearing some super soft worn in distressed jeans with brogues. When it’s above 60 degrees with sun, you can pretty much catch me in a look that’s similar.
So hubby and I started the new Netflix show, Tidying up with Marie Kondo and it’s been pretty powerful. We’ve only watched the first three episodes so far but I’m so transfixed with Marie and her gentle calming spirit and the approach she takes to keeping and purging items in your home. The thing that really stood out to me was how she showed each family examples and then quietly left them to do it on their own. A lot of shows similar to hers, show a team coming into the home and doing the work themselves. The Konmari method seems more transformational in the that each family is learning how to do this for themselves and in this case, that’s the best way to really embrace a new lifestyle rather than a gift of someone doing it for you.
My best friend called me yesterday morning and told me all the changes she’s made and all the purging she’s doing and I went home and completely overhauled my kitchen cabinets, next up is the pantry! Hubby is on board too and I can’t wait to see how our home and lifestyle transforms!

January 17, 2019First off, I LOVE these jeans! They look so cute on you! Second, I plan on purging my closet this weekend! New England is getting a massive snow storm so it is the perfect time to do it! I’m really hoping it cuts back on how much I’m consuming and helps me only buy quality pieces!

January 23, 2019That color is amazing on you!! Sooooo pretty! (I’m an “enhanced” blonde, so I can’t wear yellows AT ALL!)
I think I’m the only person who hasn’t read the Marie Kondo books or watched her show. It’s a timing thing for me;I have a couple of major projects to finish before we buy a new house, so the massive cleanups need to wait a bit!
Ada
January 29, 2019I love a good cozy oversized knit cardigan, Love that gorgeous mustard cardigan and those stunning brogue shoes. And OMG it looks like Spring or Summer there. Oh and one of these days I need to watch KonMarie. 😉
This outfit would be perfect to link up with my new Monthly “Skirting the Rules” linkup the last Tuesday of each month (link below). Thanks and have a great week! Ada. =)
