On this day (or around this day) in 2009, I made a free account on WordPress (chicityfashion.wordpress.com) and started writing about fashion things because I was bored in college. I never even checked for grammatical errors, I put terrible collages together in Polyvore and all because I don’t know how to use Photoshop…and I thought no one would ever see this site. Fast forward, five years later…and holy shit, this is my job.
The New Skinny
Are you sick of taking an extra five minutes just to wiggle into your jeans? Do you find yourself not being able to breathe after taking only a few bites of your dinner when you wear such jeans? Great news, friends! Skinny jeans are out, and there’s a new skinny in town…
What Why Where: Burberry Brit
You know I love all things oversized, especially when it comes to outerwear. So today I teamed up with Burberry and styled one of my favorite coats from their Brit collection (of course…it’s a blanket coat!) Perfect timing because it’s that time of year where we’re debating whether to be stylish or warm (remember, you CAN have it all) and this does just the trick in both categories…
Holidays On A Budget
On a budget this holiday season? (aren’t we all, though?) I decided to give in to the whole gift guide thing and keep it simple, share some cool stuff but also…NOTHING IS OVER $50!
Carbs & Cardio
Hi, my name is Jena and I’m new to exercise…
Is basically how I introduced myself my first month or so of working out (which would involve me breaking a sweat no more than once a week). Health and fitness are things I don’t think I’ve ever touched on here on CCF (the closest I’ve gotten is discussing activewear as ready to wear). So now that I have this wonderful life category where I can pretty much write about anything, this seemed to be the perfect time to talk about this stuff.
