Loving the Now

Growing up is hard. There isn't a rule book on how our life should go. Life is too unexpected. You could have the perfect life one day and it could all change the next.

Goodbye, 2017! Year In Review

And just like that, this year is over. 2017 has been one of the best years of my life and looking back, all I can say is, "DAMN GIRL! YOU. DID. THAT. SHIT." 👏

Drinking Enough Water and Minding My Business

There have been many times in my life where I caught myself being down right thirsty. I have a horrible habit of caring too much about what everyone else thinks of me and trying and failing, to assimilate.

Hygge: What Is It and Why I'm Currently Obsessing

Contemporist

2016 was the year of Hygge and I couldn't help but become obsessed. Hygge ('hoo-gah') is the Danish trend for making your life a little bit cozier. Since Danish winters are very long and very cold, the best way to stick it out is to create a warm and inviting atmosphere with friends and family. Because seriously, who doesn't enjoy being cozy?

Happy New Year! I'm so glad 2016 is over with. Here's to an amazing and prosperous 2017.

With that being said, by the title of this blog post, you already know that I moved into an apartment. This is the first time I've moved out on my own and I'm so excited to share this with you all. I moved from the suburbs to Atlanta in the beginning of December and I absolutely love it. Before I started decorating, I wanted to share my apartment layout so you can get a gist of what I'm working with.

Instagrammers I've Been Loving Lately

When you find an Instagrammer who's feed speaks to your soul, follow them. I often seek to Instagram for inspiration on my photography, style, and overall aesthetic. #aestheticgoals. These three 'grammers have been my favorite lately. 

How To Land Your First Job This Summer

Landing your first job can be daunting. You're young, you don't have experience, and there are hundreds of other people that probably applied to that very same position. Whether you're in high school or applying for your first job in college, this is an important milestone that can help you in the future.

The Lust List: Birthday Wishlist

I'm turning 24 in a few days and I can't wait treat myself. When ever I go on a shopping spree, I always feel guilty about how much I spent or how many lipsticks I purchased in a single day. Because a couple of months ago, I bought 4 lipsticks and 3 lip glosses from Ulta and I felt like a hoarder. But, you can't feel bad when it's ya birthdayyy.

How to Be a Boss from These 7 Inspirational Girl Bosses

Where do you get your inspiration from? For me, a major source of inspiration comes from other women. There is a preconceived notion that all women are unable to support each other due to jealousy. Don't let society tell you this is how you should feel. Instead, take their accomplishments and figure out how to apply that to your aspirations. Let their drive influence you. I love women that have zeal for their work. Nothing's wrong with owning your shit. And no, you're not bossy, you're a boss.

Here's To You, 2016

It's that time again where we make resolutions for the next 12 months of our lives. It's something most of us do every year with high hopes of accomplishing every single one by December.  

Goodbye 2015!

I started 2015 with one goal in mind: to do more of what you love. I relaunched my blog, started my YouTube channel, and I made believing in myself the main focus. I gained so much self-confidence that I can't believe I doubted myself for so long. Confidence is the major key to success...hee hee. But, but seriously, it is. We all need to believe in ourselves and do more of what we love. I've been so happy this year than any other year before.

5 Christmas Gifts Under $50

This time next week is Christmas. I know, you've heard it so many times, but I can't believe how quickly 2015 has flown by.

Holiday Preparation Kit

It's almost Christmas! Bring out the boughs of holly and the mistletoe. Okay, I know, I'm getting a little ahead of myself. Back in the day, Christmas was the best part of the year. The tree would be put up after Thanksgiving, presents would be wrapped 3 weeks before the 25th and the sound of Motown Christmas songs filled the air. It was the best. Now, it seems as if Christmas is just another day of the year. Not this year. I decided to pull my family out of the holiday slump, it all starts with a Bath & Body Works candle.

Welcome Back

I'm back! My little corner of the Internet received a bit of a makeover while I was away. I wanted it to be a better reflection of myself. I'm still working on the final design, so you'll see some more changes over the next few weeks. Since I've been gone, I've been to Las Vegas, received some heartbreaking news about family, and been super busy with work. I promised myself that I would get back into the groove of things once life calmed down just a tad. Family and my personal health takes the top importance in the hierarchy of needs. I am very thankful for my two month vacation from the blogging world, but I've really missed it. Hope all has been well.

Talk to you soon!
