Hey pals,
It feels like forever since I’ve wanted to write up a blog post – even longer since I’ve written something actually helpful to you all. This blog has always been my online journal. When it first began, I was just beginning to learn about this world of fashion and beauty. It was exciting and new. I had a lot to post because I had a lot to say.
If you can believe it, I’m not the same little girl who once snapped pictures in her parents’ backyard. I’m 21 years old. It’s been over 5 years since I started documenting moments of my life. I’ve lived through loss, heartbreak, and letdowns. Struggled with mental health, body image, and acceptance. I’ve seen parts of our world that need healing. And I’ll never be the same.
I can’t lie to myself, nor to you, by thinking this blog has the potential to change lives. That’s not its purpose. This is a space to explore creativity – as I’ve always encouraged. It’s a space to learn a little about fashion, a little about life, and a lot about what makes us feel inspired.
Last year, I told myself that I would get back to the girl who loved fashion so much that she could burst. That girl is still inside me. She just has a little more to say.
