A Chapter In My Life Has Closed


I started this blog back in April as a way to share my passions for fashion, music, & makeup which are 3 things I absolutely love. When I started this blog I was starting to get back on my feet after going through a rough time in my life & I had no idea what direction I was going to go in my future & to be completely honest I still don't completely know where I'll end up but we'll just go with the flow & whatever happens will happen. 

When I started the blog I was holding a job at Express which in a way inspired me to start blogging & really focus on a career in fashion. I am sadden to announce that I have officially quit the job to pursue more time in my current newest job at Francesca's. Was this a tough decision for me to make? Of course it was. I had felt so much passion in this Express job for a long time & I was so sad to let it go but it was a decision I had to make for myself eventually. 

I'll always be thankful for this Express job & it was such a huge part of my life. I learned so much about the behind the scenes of retail that I would've never learned in my first job. In every job there's of course good times & bad times but this job was a huge stepping stone into moving on from the rough times I was going through not even a month before I accepted the job. I also met some great people at work I'll miss seeing everyday so much.

I also just didn't gain a bunch of knowledge out of the job but I also gained a bunch of cute clothes in my closet that I absolutely love. I'm also going to miss being around the cute clothes everyday as well even though at Francesca's I'm also surrounded by super cute clothes. The picture above was the very first outfit I wore that was head to toe Express & to this day I still love love love this outfit so much it was also my first fashion blog post. 

What I've learned in the past week as I had to make this decision for myself was ALWAYS GO WITH YOUR GUT FEELING. If you ever have a gut feeling about something whether it's a good, bad, or even super risky & uncomfortable please follow your gut. Everything truly happens for a reason. I will continue to blog & share my young adult journey & passions on the blog just this chapter in my life has officially closed. It was fun while it lasted but I'm excited to see what the future has in store for me.

 8 Years of Content Creating. I haven't celebrated a blogging anniversary in a really long time, but I was looking back on when I started this blog and how long it has been, it absolutely blew my mind.

Making Fall Fashion Cute in a Coastal City

Making Fall Fashion Cute in a Coastal City Hey guys! Today we will be doing a fashion themed post & today's theme is making fall fashion cute but if you live in a southern coastal city where it is still 90 degrees outside. I feel like there is not enough recognition for coastal falls, especially in fashion so today, we are going to get realistic about fall fashion while it is still 90 degrees outside. Neutrals Go with EVERYTHING! No matter if you are doing a tank top and shorts look or even a sweater with jeans (if you risk being sweaty after the fact), neutrals are a GO TO for every season but mostly for fall. Lean towards your black, white, & even like an oatmeal type of neutral colored clothing & focus on those when building your coastal fall wardrobe. Neutral Outfit Inspo from Pinterest Tube Tops with Light Cardigans Whether you are wearing the tube top with shorts or jeans, if you really want to channel that fall look or even if you are going somewhere indoors wher...

How 2025 Became My Best Year Yet & 26 Goals for 2026 Outfit Details: Top: Abercrombie & Fitch Shorts: Nordstrom Hey guys! I know I have been MIA from the blog for a while (most of the year actually) but I went MIA for very good reasons!  2025 has been full of blessings and amazing memories. As we start goal setting for 2026, I want to recap how 2025 became my best year yet and how going into 2026, I am feeling such a fresh mindset and this positive momentum we had in 2025 will in fact continue in 2026. I want to continue to be a positive force within not only myself but also for the people around me as well. 2025 became the year I have been longing for since I stepped into this crazy world of adulthood at 18 years old and that is, working full time in marketing/social media. Within the company I have worked for the past 2 1/2 years, this past June I switched departments from Membership/Recruitment to full on Marketing which if you have been following me for a while has been...
