So today I’m sharing a summer capsule wardrobe for work. Summer Work Capsule Wardrobe 2021 As with any capsule wardrobe, I tried to whittle the pieces down to my favorite essentials.

What is the world’s best men’s white t-shirt? Pete and I set out to answer this very importantquestion. After all my favorite outfit is jeans and a white t-shirt! In a nutshell we purchased t-shirts in both V-neck and crew neck from every major retailer in all relevant sizes. I stayed awayfrom very small retailers and brands that are often out of stock. For reference Pete is 6’6” and Iam 6’2” so sleeve and torso length are very important to…

Before Photos of the Beach Bungalow along 30A Flooring The floors in the beach bungalow were tile downstairs and carpet upstairs. My father in law and his friend came down and helped us tackle his project so the cost does not include any labor. I selected this Lifeproof Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring in “Dusk Cherry” for $3.19 a square foot and we covered the first floor living space and upstairs bedrooms for about $2,700 in materials. I also didn’t include…
Welcome to the Bungalow! The newest addition to @stayon30a. If you are looking for a short term rental along the Florida panhandle we just renovated this 2 bedroom home. The front porch items are from all from Walmart! We have only been here a little over a week but I used my Walmart+ fast and free shipping to get things here quickly before this home opens to summer renters.

What’s a Capsule Wardrobe? If before we get into this you’re like… wait a minute Rachel, what’s a capsule wardrobe? Let me explain. The idea of a capsule wardrobe is to group versatile, basic wardrobe pieces that can be restyled in many outfit combinations. The goal is to minimize your wardrobe with pieces that mix and match AND ALL LOOK FABULOUS. Not only are you buying less, but the pieces I’m sharing today and budget friendly. Many of these items…

If you missed it on Instagram stories by brother purchased this 2 bedroom home along 30A and I volunteered to give it some cosmetic updating before summer renters came in. We don’t have an active AirBNB listing because you’ll see below this renovation is still ongoing but I shared direct booking info on the @stayon30a Instagram…
I cried A LOT of tears leaving this home and I’m not a crier. It was our dream home. It was the home I thought we’d get our kids through high school in. The home where we made the kind of friends who are like family. My emotions are so raw, I’m teary even typing what we left behind. My Dad had been sick with Parkinson’s and dementia for so long I pictured myself helping take care of him until…
