Happy May! As we move into the fifth month of 2021 (is it just me or is time just flying by?!), I’m sharing a peek into my life lately. I’ve celebrated my 7th blog anniversary last month and one of the things I’ve said in my anniversary post was that I will try my best to keep up with my blog. So, let’s get started!
It’s my 7th blog anniversary, can you believe it?! It was exactly 7 years ago that I decided to post my very first blog post. Who knew that by hitting the PUBLISH button my life would change forever?! Many of you have probably noticed that I took a year off from blogging. I’ve posted sporadically here and there but it wasn’t consistent. With the pandemic a lot has changed…, including myself.
Let’s face it: Chicago is cleaner than New York City and nicer than Los Angeles. I’ve lived in Chicago for more than 15 years and I still swoon over our museum campuses, with art, sea life and T-Rex bones among the attractions. I always say that no city can beat Chicago in the summer. You can catch a concert in the Frank Gehry-designed pavilion at Millennium Park or take a stroll through our famous Magnificent Mile.
I’ve been blogging or shall I call it “influencing” for over 6 years now. I started What Would V Wear on a whim and big dreams. I set goals for myself, spent countless sleepless nights working on my content while working full-time until I quit my corporate job to pursue entrepreneurship. Six years later, I’m proudly self-employed. It’s been a wild ride but one I wouldn’t want to change for the world!
If there’s one thing we can say about fall dressing, it’s that you can never have too many sweaters. One of my favorite trends right now are striped sweaters. My striped sweater quickly became my wardrobe staple for the colder months ahead while these fun, colorful stripes brighten my day at the same time! Keep reading to learn how I’ve paired some of our very favorite striped sweaters!
