The New Normal

The New Normal


Hey guys! I’m blogging on my phone which y’all know I never do but within the past few days a lot of stuff has happened & I’ve done a lot of thinking so let’s get right into this post!

So since mid March, I was furloughed from my main job I had before the pandemic & throughout that time, I’ve been taking online courses to expand my knowledge & been full time blogging which let me tell y’all, these past few months on this blog have been so life changing & when times got rough, I knew I had this blog to depend on & it was one of the few things in my life that wasn’t cancelled so for anyone who’s been viewing my blog since then, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

This week, I did go back to that job & I did just start a brand new online course to expand my knowledge! It’s been good to go back to some sense of normality from what life was like before the pandemic!

Mentally & emotionally I have learned a lot about myself & grown so much as an individual throughout these past couple of months & I’m not going to lie, some of those times were ROUGH because so much had shifted & changed for me that it was almost overwhelming!

Blogging was one of the few things that I still had that still made sense & I leaned onto full time blogging very heavily within these past months coming up with new ways to brand myself & create new ideas!

I’ve created some of the most fun posts I’ve ever done during these past couple of months & I know it’s brought in a ton of new viewers (I look at my blog stats daily) which again, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

I know I said in a post recently that y’all were going to see a HUGE shift in my blog with what kind of content I’m posting kind of focusing more on the music/award show industries more than fashion which I originally made this blog over 3 years ago for!

I’m still figuring out what direction I want my blog to go in & I know it’s going to change a lot now considering the fact I’m not full time blogging anymore & I am back at work!

So with that being said as of now, I am going to take a break from blogging & focus on getting back into my working routine & just overall trying to figure out what I wanna do! I also want to be active on Pinterest again because I just haven’t been active on there pretty much at all this pandemic & I wanna definitely get back into being inspired to do fashion posts again because I do truly love blogging about fashion & I hate how unmotivated I’ve been when it comes to that!


I have also gotten into Milkshake which is a Instagram friendly blogging platform that I discovered a few months ago & I want to dabble a little in that to post tweets, Instagram posts, my favorite song links, important blog posts, & more! Milkshake will be a easier place for me to post content for times of change like these & hopefully stay consistent with my Instagram & Twitter following as well to post content friendly for that other than constantly clicking on links for new posts on Blogspot!


I’m looking forward to coming back & blogging! Hopefully my Billboard Music Awards nomination thoughts will be out VERY SOON & then after that is GRAMMYS SEASON which I’m super pumped about & already have so many fun posts ideas for that!

Alright guys! I’m going to go back to relaxing but I hope everyone is staying safe & wearing masks to keep everyone around you safe! I’ll be back whenever I’m more settled in my new routine!

 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. I wish I could tell that lonely & confused 19-year-old me that at almost 28 years old, she is living most of the content creating dream she has always wanted.

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

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...
