Yay! You made it :) The second big change is the layout. As mentioned above, I really want these photographs to jump off the screen and to highlight the latest and greatest photos – to do this, I added a single column section at the top of the blog which will always feature the most recent blog post (and in a very big way). Every day this section will be replaced with the latest post! If you scroll down past the “featured” section, you’ll find the blog turns into two columns – the older blog content on the left, and the sidebar on the right. On the sidebar you’ll find you can “BROWSE BY CATEGORY” (like before), and you’ll also see a new section called “LATEST FINDS”. Each week I’ll replace this section with my favorite find of the week, with a description of why I love it and a link for you to shop that product. Think of it as THE EDIT, light.
Last but not least, you’ll find a bigger emphasis on my Instagram if you scroll to the very bottom of the site. As you’ve probably figured out by now, I’m Insta-obsessed. Lately I’ve been posting more day-to-day outfits to my feed, that you’ll miss out on if you aren’t following me or if you’re not an Instagram user! Most of the content on my Instagram does not make an appearance here on the blog, so I figured adding a widget featuring a larger number of my recent Instagrams would be helpful for those of you not on the app. Each time I post a new photo on Instagram, this widget will update with the new pics. Aside from a few other cosmetic changes to clean it up (fonts, colors, etc), that’s really all you need to know! I’d love to hear what you think about the new design + layout, so please leave a note below with your thoughts. I’m always looking for ways to improve the overall experience and content for you! Thank you again for following along!!
Jacket: Vince, Top: SEN, Jeans: J BRAND, Bag: Balenciaga, Shoes: Givenchy (also available in black and animal print), Sunglasses: Celine, Rings: c/o Gorjana and Michael Kors

Great outfit Merritt, I was eyeing that Vince jacket earlier this winter but ended up going for the all leather version. It was my first vince jacket so I thought it would be good to keep it simple..but now after joining the vince leather jacket club I most definitely am as obsessed as expected, so this version might have to be next!
Your new blog design looks wonderful! So spot on with your brand. Congratulations!

Your outfit is stunning. There’s few things as perfect as a pair of perfectly distressed black jeans.
The blog design is great too. I love how clean the design is. Too many blogs get cluttered and it makes the overall experience less enjoyable.
