FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE

No, it’s not my birthday. I know I usually pick up blogging for a day around my birthdays.No, it's just a wave of nostalgia that's flooded my mind with words. Words strong enough, for once, to force myself to sit and write them down. I've been stuck lately. It's a weird, unpleasant feeling. I've heard of people talking about what it's like being in one, but I've never understood. I've never been stuck. At least, not this long, not this - weird.  But maybe finally sitting down...

FEB THRIFT HAUL // PT 2 OF 2

Welcome welcome back to the second part of my February thrift haul! With March and April dragging by, February seems ages ago. Sigh, back when we had the freedom to go wherever we wanted even if we didn't.. Like I said on my last post, I didn't thrift a lot of things this time, but I am LOVING every single item I did get. This part will have mostly accessories, since I've tried to section out all the clothing items to my first haul post (here). Keyword "mostly" because I did find a skirt...

FEB THRIFT HAUL // PT 1 OF 2

Let's talk about thrifting real quick. Thrifting has definitely become pretty trendy the last few years, and I'm really glad it has. Not only is it a sustainable way of purchasing clothing, there's also something satisfying about finding a piece that's completely different from the store duplicates and what's inside everyone's closet. It can be a lot of work sometimes, but when you find that one special, hidden gem, let tell you - it's so worth it! I always love thrifting with my friends. Everyone...

2020 GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

We're quarter into the new decade and here I am, just now blogging my 2020 goals. You know what they say though - better late then never. I should add "more positive thinking" to my list since I've got such a good start on it already. I tried making new year resolutions before - that didn't help. I tried not making them - that didn't help either. I'm back to trying again, but now it's a little different. Looking back, I realize I haven't been making my resolutions with the intent of keeping...

20 Things I Learned in 20 Years

Let's Style: Fall

Let’s talk fall.  Looks like this year’s trends have brought on a lot of monochromatic and beige looks. And boy are they pretty cute - who’s with me? I’ve seen a lot of them over the summer, but I have to say I like them even better transiting into fall. There’s something about the whole fall palette look alongside beige and camel that just makes my heart skip a beat. If you know, you know. Onto the look.  Using camel as my color base for my longer skirt, I opted...

MINI FORWARD: Well hello, good to see you here! I was surprised to hear so much positive feedback from all of you, and I’d like to thank you for the sweet and encouraging words. Here’s my promised post, I hope you like it! I had a bunch of ideas that swirled around in my head from time to time about what to post, and I was so excited to finally write some of them down, but when I finally came around to doing it, my mind went completely and utterly blank. A total jam.  But...
