BUT I’M TOO NEUROTIC TO LET GO OF CONTROL!!! Haha, sorry but it’s kind of true. Personally, it’s something I’m always working on and reminding myself, not everything has to work out in the way that I think it should. It’s so important to relax and take life day-by-day. Just because something doesn’t work out right the first time, doesn’t mean it won’t work out perfectly in the future. Jobs, friends, relationships, will all work out the way that they should. The great thing about failures is what you learn, and they mean they you’re trying. Everything works out the…

Motivation Monday!

I thought this quote was perfect for the first Monday of the New Year! Most of us have made and set goals which aren’t easy to keep or to commit to. Today is dedicated to being courageous and stepping out of your comfort zone. It’s day five, and maybe you haven’t  started your resolution yet, but take today to force yourself out of the box. Do what you need to do. See and feel your goals and imagine yourself achieving them. Nothing will come easy, but it will come. If you’ve started on your goals, KEEP GOING. Whatever you do,…

Motivation Monday!

I hate the stairmaster at the gym just a little less than I dislike the stairmaster that is life. I’ve been working since I’m 14 years old and it’s not until recent that I actually have a general idea of what I want to do. Starting back at the bottom isn’t fun especially after years of two jobs, school and no or very few days off/vacations. I constantly remind myself when I get discouraged that I’m always much happier being busy than not. I love trying my best and working towards a goal, it’s not easy but definitely rewarding. The…

Fashion Friday: Leather Skirts

Fashion Friday: Leather Skirts

I’ve been looking for a nice leather skirt for the longest time. Fortunately for my bank account and PETA, I haven’t found a perfect one just yet, but I have found a perfect FAUX leather skirt. This week, I paired it with a oversized blouse, trench coat and suede booties. It’s the perfect casual meets dressy look. Blouse: Romeo and Juliet | Skirt: Tinsel | Shoes: Steve Madden | Coat: Guess I love wearing an oversized shirt or sweater with a skirt. It’s so much more comfortable than wearing a tight shirt tucked in. Pairing a flowy feminine blouse with…
