  • 🍁🍂🍃the more i get outside, the better i feel • outside every day 🍃🍁🍂

🍂🍁🍃 exposure to artificial light, blue screens, + WIFI (and being sedentary) drains our energy 🍃🍁🍂

P.S. it’s stunning here in the mountains in Fall

* intentional living 
* simple life 
* get outside 
* nature heals 
* gratitude 
* slow living 
* self care
* move every day
  • 🤍 I love reselling things i no longer wear • it helps fund my secondhand finds, keeps things in circulation, and gives me a reason to let something go before bringing something new in 🤍

• living below our means 
• financial freedom 
• thrifting

• sustainable living
  • 💰taking about money is tricky • we all have our stories and ideas around it • i’m just sharing things i do to live financially in my value system 

💰my goal is to live under our means in order to live a less stressful life • i value buying things second hand to save resources • i want to consume less • saving is more important than spending to me •having money saved and invested helps me create the life I want 

💰learning to be happy with less has made it possible to SAVE • there was a time when having a fully funded emergency fund and money in savings wasn’t possible • being financially responsible has been a journey
  • 🧥👖second hand outfit of the day • you don’t have to buy new to dress well • so many great pieces are already out there • second hand is my favorite way to find pieces i love • it’s easier to find my personal style when i’m being intentional and not just copying trends 

🧥👖 what i paid:

* vintage cashmere turtleneck sweater $24 from eBay
* organic cotton Everlane pants $18 from eBay 
* genuine leather belt $18 eBay
* black leather boots borrowed from little human

  • 💗 not giving advice here • just sharing our journey • living under our means allows us to live the life we LOVE • and gives us the margin to pay for the things that really matter, to save for the future and to have a less stressful life 

💗nothing groundbreaking • just some simple choices we make every day • choosing to live a life with less CONSUMPTION and more CONTENTMENT 😊
  • 🤍 i’ve always loved old things • the craftsmanship, the character, the stories they carry • they just don’t make them like they used to. 🤍
  • 💗 REAL FREEDOM comes from a simple life • let’s normalize living below our means, paying cash instead of living in debt, living in small houses, cooking meals at home, wearing secondhand clothes, driving older cars without payments , and having an emergency fund tucked away. 

💗 less pressure to have more • less pressure to compare ourselves to unrealistic social media lives • more freedom to enjoy what we have and the simply lives we’ve created 💗
  • 👖🧥 natural  fibers • neutral colors • timeless  pieces • secondhand finds • quality over trends 

💗 i don’t need more • just need what feels like me 💗 

WHAT I PAID:

* wool blend sweater from men’s section Goodwill $8
* white denim from Plato’s Closet $11
* J Crew cotton tank from local consignment store $9
* Leather belt from eBay $18
