I’ve Been Blogging for Two Years?!

Packing for 4 Days in a Personal Item!
Hi there! I hope you’re having a great week so far. I’m planning a visit to NC to visit my sister & I’m so excited! (I think when this post is published, I’ll already be there!) I can’t wait to see her new house, cuddle with my pup nephew, & have some sister time! I’m [...]
Summer Insecurities
Bottom line: it’s a whole lot harder to feel good about your body if you don’t feel good on the inside. Hi there! “Love yourself!” “Love your flaws!” “Your body is beautiful!” How often are we told these things? I’ve said them in previous posts, I’m sure. What we don’t hear as frequently though, is [...]

Stepping Outside of my Comfort Zone
Wear the clothes you want to wear! I kid you not, one of my favorite outfits in 4th grade was a white skirt with black & white polka dot leggings underneath. In 5th grade, I wore a hot pink blazer with a pink & orange floral top under it. Bright colors, sequins, bold patterns, I [...]
Current Obsession: Midi Dresses!
I love midi dresses for so many reasons! They’re super versatile & can be dressed up or down with whatever shoes you want. I’ve been wearing mine with sneakers + a cardigan for work, but can’t wait to style them with booties & jackets if the weather ever cools down! https://videopress.com/v/ySM4YQTT?resizeToParent=true&cover=true&preloadContent=metadata This first dress is [...]
Negative Comments & How I’m Dealing with Them
If someone chooses to make a negative comment regarding your appearance, that is a direct reflection of THEM. It has nothing to do with you! I got my first mean comment on an Instagram post the other day. It was a man who runs a business, who commented on my weight. It stung, for a [...]
