Traveling Light: A Winter Packing List for Providence, Rhode Island

Alyssa holds a stack of clothing for Providence

Normally packing for a three-day weekend is a breeze, but when you’re from Florida and the temperature at your destination is barely expected to rise above freezing, it can be a challenge. Neither Michael nor I have a well-established winter wardrobe (you don’t really need one where we live!), and I still feel like we’re …

My first 10 x 10 challenge is on the books! I’ve really enjoyed the way this challenge has forced me to be more creative with my work wardrobe. Let’s jump on into this recap to see what I’ve learned!

*insert applause track here* We did it! We made it to the end of the Fall 10 x 10 and we made it to Friday! Is it just me, or has this week seemed exceptionally long? This post contains affiliate links Given that, let’s not make this week any longer. Here’s a look at Day …

Fall 10 x 10 – Day Nine

Alyssa wears a black dress, grey blazer, and black shoes with sunglasses

The home stretch! I’m pretty glad that tomorrow is the last day of the challenge (and also a casual Friday so jeans are in my forecast). Today was a typical Thursday; we had our staff meeting this afternoon, but the mood was a little different due to all of the things happening in our state …

Fall 10 x 10 – Day Eight

The week is halfway over and the Fall 10 x 10 is three-quarters done! I wouldn’t say I’m feeling stifled with my choices, but I’m feeling a little antsy for some of my more fall-like items like boots and tights and my leather jacket. I don’t want to jinx it, but they are saying we …

YOU GUYS. We’re in the home stretch and the weather didn’t reach into the 80s today! Well, there are still three days left before the weekend and we’re supposed to warm back up again, but my Fall 10 x 10 challenge is nearly over. This post contains affiliate links I’m still feeling like I could …

Fall 10 x 10 – Day Six

Alyssa wears a blue button-down tied in a knot over a black dress with loafers and smiles

And here we are again, Monday. Over the weekend I laundered all of my clothing items except for my jeans, which I try not to wash too frequently, and had access to the rest of my closet. I wore jeans on Saturday and Sunday (a distressed pair one day and a high-waisted pair in black …

Fall 10 x 10 – Day Five

Alyssa wears a blush tee, blue jeans, and nude flats and sits down on a bench

Halfway there! I’m not feeling anxious about getting back to my full wardrobe yet, though I suppose it’s because I haven’t really re-worn too many of my items yet. I’ll just have to wait until day nine or ten to see how I truly feel. This post contains affiliate links and I may receive a …

Fall 10 x 10 – Day Four

Alyssa wears black pants, a black wrap top, and beige flats and places her hands behind her back

All black again (minus the shoes!), and I love it. Thursday started a little differently since I had a dentist appointment this morning. I’d forgotten about it when I planned out my ten outfits, but I’m so glad today’s outfit included pants! I can’t imagine that it would be too fun to spend an hour …

Fall 10 x 10 – Day Three

Alyssa wears a black dress with a black tee over it with black loafers and faces sideways from the camera

Finally feeling a little more inventive for Day Three! Today I had a couple of meetings with students and staff, but otherwise, it was a normal day in the office. No errands today before or after work, just there and back before coming home to get ready for kickboxing. This post contains affiliate links and …
