I couldn’t agree with you more. I think that’s why I’m gravitating toward it. I always jokingly say that I tried to make it on IG earlier in 2025 (failed miserably, had a meltdown, deleted my profile, unnecessarily aggressive but okay). It just moves too fast for me! Thank you so much for reading, Stella!! xx
You've found your niche, and let me just say that I am here for all of it! Your voice has truly shone this year, and I am so excited to see what the "Yard Sale" has in store for 2026 and beyond.
Evonne! THANK YOU. Connecting with you and meeting you IRL was one of my greatest moments of ’25. There is nothing better than meeting someone when you already know they’re great, and then the real-life version somehow manages to be even greater. That’s the best way I can explain it. BIG hugs.
The outfits are amazing. And the lessons learned- so good. I love how liberating #2 is. People care so much about what people think (and live in fear over that) but truthfully they aren’t thinking about you. So much truth to that and so much freedom!
That's your niche, right there!! You bring a breath of fresh air on SS and I love your posts ❤️ I hope to see so much of your yard sale over 2026 and beyond - who knows, I may find my niche at some point too.
I always love your reflections, and your reminders to slow down, take self care and get offline! Also appreciate you taking the time to check in on me. Things are still hectic on my side, but reading this post first thing on 1 Jan was exactly the type of grounding I needed. Appreciate you and Happy 2026!
Thank you, my friend! I’ve been thinking about you & your family. I was going to send you another DM- but didn’t want to be creepy! Big hugs! TY for taking the time to read my work.
Sending calm, steady energy your way as things stay busy, and hoping 2026 brings you some breathing room!
Honestly, I feel the exact same way about you!! THANK YOU for the kind words and constant support this year!! I mean -- what's more fun than a real good yard sale!? Excited to welcome 2026 with a great friend like you by my side. xo
I love your Christmas Day outfit !! I've wanted a similar button down but in black. Also, i'm with you on the journal. I've been thinking about buying one so I can easily write down thoughts as I'm out and about my day vs reverting to my phone.
So I was just nodding along with your entire post. You always have great reframes and I fully agree with your life lessons. I've loved reading along and learning from you in 2025 (I am totally making a holiday card book FYI). Wearing a sheer shirt on Christmas is badass and everything I aspire to do next year since I spent this year in sweats and workout gear. Always thankful for the day I came across your Indyx post so I could talk to my heart's content about item uploads. Very excited to see what 2026 brings you my friend 💝
The holiday book card is so fun. It also doubles as a reminder for next year of who I have to send cards to, lol, because Lord knows I do not have a list and fly by the seat of my pants every year!! TY for the kind words. You’re going to laugh, but it was between that or my lace skirt, and I was thinking of you when visualizing how to style it. I ultimately went with the sheer shirt!
TY for all the support - Substack is a better place with you in it! Xx
Loved all of your outfits! The all white! The sheer shirt (added one to my wishlist)! The sequin skirt!
And thank you so much for being here and being you! You have an unique voice that add something special to this community ❤️
I loved you vision board. Might not create one for myself, but for 2026 I want to travel (already planned by this over the top A-type), working on setting boundaries and not feeling bad about it, taking care of myself and my mental health, accepting that I can't do everything and that's okay and getting back into painting.
Sigrid, thank YOU. Thank you for reading my crazy ramblings, supporting me & collaborating with me! To know I have a pal across the ocean with such a kind heart like you means so much. I love our similar our ‘26 goals are — we got this! I want to paint so badly, fingers crossed I get there myself!! Big hugs! 🤗 Thank you x infinity!
Substack reminds me of old timey blogs - it’s like the presentation (images and text) has gone full circle.

Really do like them all. Love the burgundy and so impressed you wore white, served food, and were still white by end of evening. ❤️❤️❤️
It was truly a minor miracle! Thank you so much xx
Brown organza shirt made me gasp. Buying now!

Obsessed with the sequin skirt! Love it love it.
Thank you, friend! I mean, being called Beyoncé to start your morning—IDK, is there a better way?
No better way, nope! You’ve inspired me to post my favorite outfits of 2025! 🤍
I CANNOT WAIT!!!

Here's to more painting in 2026 (I just need to work on not letting perfectionism rear it's head!!!)
