Year of The Blonde.

These photos were intended for my New Years post, however, when I went to post they had some how disappeared. So it’s appropriate that they resurfaced for the first of February, so here is my not-quite-so New Years outfit and post.

How could I not incorporate this vintage sequin bustier into my New Years outfit? This puppy is probably my proudest vintage find, but i don’t know if people could handle it in day to day setting, so I brought it out to be a little fancy to ring in a new year, which, not in a selfish way, I am devoting to me and self improvement.
 
I am not one for resolutions, but I have had a rough start to the new year, with that being said I am setting small goals for myself this year to achieve. Last month, Obviously, was keeping positive. And this month I am devoting my month to health. I have always been health conscious, especially regarding cholesterol (seriously, I’m a freak about it!). But this month is going to be about staying active and eating well to improve my physical health, while, of course, being mentally healthy.
 
So here is to kicking off the New Year (Better late than never!). I hope you all have amazing goals set for yourselves and I hope you know you can achieve them!

Happiness Is a New Idea.

I don’t talk about being in school on here often, but each day further into my fashion merchandising major fuels me. I have a love hate relationship with the school of fashion. Obviously, I am incredibly grateful for going to school everyday and learning more about my passion, but I am also newly inspired everyday by what surrounds me. Whether it be the fashion I see on other students (sometimes I feel like I’m at the capital in The Hunger Games with the styles I see), the abundance of information regarding fashion news and trends, or just the fact that every class I attend reassures me that I am doing the right thing.
 
I have mentioned this before on here, but I have been in school for a while, I started college as a fine arts major and two years into it I panicked and knew it wasn't right for me. Fashion was not always an obvious career path for me, just something I was interested in, but I took a chance with fashion merchandising and couldn't be happier.
 
To those who are unsure of what they want and where they will end up, this is for you. Take a chance, go with your gut, and see what happens. Amazing things are bound to happen.
 
In light of a theme I’m noticing emerge here on my blog…keeping positive and happy, especially in the winter, and taking chances and finding what is right for you..
 
I chose a way to dress up in the winter. It is so easy to fall in the funk of not caring what you look like when its cold, but it is just as easy to throw on a dress and a nice pair of shoes and tights. I am so inspired by girls here in Akron especially, regardless of how cold it is, I know I can probably go to High Land Square and see some girls who care. This goes out to you as well.

Cartoon Spirit.

Considering that it is winter and it is about 7 degrees outside, I am all about doing anything right now to stay positive, happy and most importantly…WARM! I’ve mentioned this before and i will say it again, bright colors make me happy! So to get rid of these wintery blues I am embracing my colorful side to keep me and hopefully everyone around me, cheerful!

So for this outfit i channeled a happy l mouse. Mickey Mouse, that is. Perhaps me being trying to be so cheerful is turning me into a cartoon character? Oh well, i’m ok with it until i get through February.
