Even if you had a horrible week last week, at school, work, what-have-you, it is important to get up and get back on the horse! The worst thing you can do is quit and run in the other direction. People will always respect you for trying again. The only time you’re held to your mistakes and failures is when you run away from them. Today I challenge you to let your past mistakes go and trudge forward, full force! And even if you don’t feel like a winner just yet, keep going back and keep trying. All your perseverance will,…

Fall Staples: Black Mini Skirt

Fall Staples: Black Mini Skirt

A black leather mini skirt is a classic piece that you’ll have forever. Personally, I think this makes it totally worth the investment. I was lucky enough to pick up this All Saints leather skirt over the Summer on major sale! So if you’re not ready to pull that $500+ trigger, I would suggest getting a fun faux leather piece and then waiting until off season for this investment. I’ve linked a few real/faux faves below. Take a look.. Turtleneck: Gap | Fur Vest: 525 America | Skirt: All Saints | Shoes: Pour La Victoire | Bag: Chanel | Pearls: Bloomingdales …

This is always the motive! I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’ve always wanted to change and impact the world in a significant way.

It would be amazing to make positive changes that impact the world, but to also have fun while doing it. It’s so important to make…

We all go through hard times, we all have scares. This quote really inspired me because sometimes it’s hard to make sense of why horrible things happen to us. Why me? Why this? Why now? I don’t know if there’s ever a right answer to these questions, but know that because of this nothing can break us. Today, I am thankful for everything that I’ve gone through and everything that I will go through, as it always makes me stronger. I chose to become stronger, kinder and more acceptive of others. If you’re going through something difficult, know that you’re…

Motivation Monday!

In each stage of my life thus far, I’ve learned to take things less and less personal. First, it was in elementary school, I learned not to take it personal if someone didn’t want to be my friend. In high school, I learned not to take it personal, if a teacher or coach got upset with my class or team. Today, I continue to learn not to take it personal, if someone doesn’t want to collaborate with me or join my team at work. It’s a beautiful thing when you realize it’s not always about you. I don’t think I…
