I’m also a Ukrainian New Yorker – having strong pride and patriotism for both: my homeland and my current home . For years, I’ve been on a side mission to capture my stunning NYC and elevate the depth and beauty of my Ukrainian culture, fashion and language (some of my posts are in Ukrainian!)

February 24, 2022 – my digital space shifted to include information about russia’s war on Ukraine, the devastation and destruction my home country is dealing with and the bravery, strength and inspiring spirit they are facing it with. A large portion of my posts today highlight Ukrainian brands, fashion, culture & the strong, incredible Ukrainians making gorgeous clothes you can buy & support local businesses, economy & people fighting for freedom every day. We are also a community who donates to Ukrainian organizations found in any of my recent posts!

Ok so while all my NYC friends are hating on my Jersey City zip code, my commute looks like this 🤌🏻

And yes, this post is aimed at convincing those haters to move here with me…

Want to leave this one here for my own memory really…

So in August, something insane happened - we moved to Jersey City! I quite literally see our old NYC apartment from our living room window and it takes me a total of 6.5 minutes to be in Manhattan - so I refuse to say I’m a real housewife of New Jersey now.

Why is this post a memory? Well - these are all from a 1.5 months we lived in an apartment one floor above our current one. The “wrong apartment” as it will forever be known. Lots of confusion, floor plans and tours landed us in an apartment we didn’t sign up for so we moved in October once again - into the “right apartment” this time.

The summer was an adventure and a half. You should see our storage selfies from the rainy moving day… there’re some disaster pics at the end of this carousel btw.

Rewearing Reformation: Why Repeating Outfits is Ok - reflecting on the creation process

In our society consumed by extremely fast fashion and disposable trends, I can see how losing sight of the value in rewearing our clothes happens. After all, I used to be that shopaholic needing new clothes for every occasion and photo for socials. Today I reflect on the creation process behind the pieces I’m wearing – the craftsmanship, the ethical practices, the impact on the environment – recognizing that true personal style goes beyond what’s trendy or new. It’s about making intentional choices, investing in brands that align with our values and items crafted with care, finding joy in the pieces we already own… It’s not just about rewearing; but redefining what it means to be a conscious consumer in a world that often prioritizes quantity over quality.

Detail shots from a post from this spring - now part of the “why rewearing outfits is OK” post on the blog 🔹

“I repeat my looks” vs. “I can’t wear the same thing twice” debate is ancient, intensified with social media and bloggers posting 10 new looks a day. My head spins during fashion weeks when influencers change in their taxis on the way from one show to another, just to post several different looks. Even if you don’t follow them – “Discover” page algorithms will surface a rainbow of street style on the daily. Industry pressure to have a packed closet is so intense, no wonder people are buying $2 shirts on Temu or some other garbage retailer just to keep up (sorry Temu shoppers! But the trash retailer is a major no-no on this blog). Of course, I’m on the “I repeat my looks” side – the contrary isn’t just unsustainable, but wildly expensive, impractical and void of a personal style. You might’ve noticed: some of the most followed bloggers are seen wearing quite literally everything – with zero recognizable personal styles. I guess the idea is to sell you a little bit of everything from seasonal collections, and it’s up to the follower to determine what works for them – but instead, this tactic fuels extreme overconsumption and overproduction of cheap clothes. So here’s a post where I rewear the full look from Italy earlier this year! Because it’s ok to be photographed in the same thing twice.
