SS and KH

We are KH and SS,   two quirky friends who met at a retail job... At first, we didn’t talk much but once we did we discovered we had a lot in common...

* Brown curly hair and brown eyes (no, not sisters!)

* A weakness for Hugh Laurie, DQ mini blizzards, Samoa girl scout cookies and trashy magazines!

* Awkward dance moves (SS thinks they're “cool” but KH knows better).

* A {mild-ish} obsession with Pinterest.

* A love for all things fashion, style and design

SS on the steps of the State Capitol

SS is a college grad with a BA in Psychology. For years she wanted to work with kids in a hospital but then decided it was not for her. She is currently pursuing her MA in Education. SS is also trying to recover from a slight brand addiction... she's getting better, and has actually become a bit of a spending scrooge after taking a class on women & money and becoming a budgetaholic. She never leaves home without wearing MAC prunella eyeliner, her new watch, and at least two bracelets (part of her “new style” and her staples. SS's new style goals?: A“purposefully styled” new take on the classics with punches of color, pattern mixing and accessories added in to mix things up a little. 

KH at the State Capitol

KH is currently pursuing her MA in Addiction Studies. After that she will take additional coursework in mental health. She hopes to have a job...someday. KH is not afraid to wear brightly colored pants and doesn’t leave home without her staples and knowing where she will get her next Diet Coke. SS is always jealous (and used to be intimidated by) of KH's expertly crafted outfits and the way she can make anything look great. KH loves her bass loafers, button-up shirts, and skinny jeans. Her new style goal?: Looking “business casual” without losing her individuality (or showing too much skin).

Once, SS was talking to a customer about sending holiday cards and the woman told her to wait until she was “independently wealthy”. Since that day it has become somewhat of a mantra. “Oh, I’ll do that one day...when I am independently wealthy.”

We have both recently begun new chapters in our lives and realized our old style just wasn’t cutting it. The challenge arose: how does one go about building a new wardrobe when they aren’t “independently wealthy”? We’ll show you how!

Do YOU have a question, cool idea for a blog post, awesome story about YOUR new style, great tip or just want to say hello?
