A Look Back Over The Past Year Of Jackie O My

Monday, 31 December 2018
     2018 is coming to a close, so I'm celebrating all the accomplishments here at Jackie O My! I didn't achieve exactly everything I wanted to (not even close!), but I'm happy to say some opportunities sprung up that I never imagined, and I'm proud of the work I have to show for myself. So here's a little roundup of my five favorite posts of the past year.

Wellness Diary: Habits For Mental Clarity In The New Year

Wellness Diary: Habits For Mental Clarity In The New Year | Jackie O My
The Birth Of Venus, Botticelli.

     We're entering the new year in just a few days, and to mark the occasion, I'd like to write a Wellness Diary post about a huge but often overlooked part of overall wellness: mental health. You may have noticed my absence from the blogosphere lately. I've been taking some time away to focus on my own mental health. I've struggled with anxiety for many years, although it isn't something I open up about a lot on social media. I try to keep my personal life and my blog life separate for the most part, although I appreciate the strong women out there who bare all on their blogs, including their struggles with anxiety disorders. I'm so thankful for their posts on the topic, so I decided there was no better time to share my own tips on living well while taking care of your mental space. Here are a few things I learned while attending wellness classes over the winter season.

Brand Love: Selkie

Brand Love: Selkie | Jackie O My

     Is this debut campaign from feminine brand Selkie giving you déjà-vu? If it reminds you of Wildfox, it has good reason to: it's a collection by Wildfox's co-founder and former creative director Kimberley Gordon.
Selkie is a whimsical, comfortable clothing line for women, comprised of unique T shirts, Sweat-suits and dresses made from deliciously soft fabrics. This vegan clothing is environmentally conscious and made in Los Angeles.
Mixing pastel hues, billowy fabrics and cute tees, and inspired by folklore, this collection is perfection to me. I absolutely adore the Wrap Dress In Water, which reminds me of Alice In Wonderland, but honestly I'd love if my entire closet were filled with Selkie.
