I promise, I am not depressed. Just going through a little thing. Although my last post seemed mopey and sad. I am actually VERY happy. 
I just want to say thank you for all of your sweet comments and thank you for actually reading what I had to say. It's silly, but that is why I actually keep up this blog. So I can write. It is my outlet, my journal, my relief. It's what I love. Photos are another love, yes... but I do hope that you read :)

Sometimes I feel like I should have grown up in the late 60s. Flower child, free spirit, peace love and happiness. All of the above.
(Minus the massive amounts of drugs and lovemaking with strangers...to put it lightly.
But you know,  I'm all about that rock n' roll)

I love adventure, doing things on a whim, being the unexpected. 
Love Love. Live Life. 
Be Young. 
Just Be.

Taking time to enjoy. You should too! 
Go put a flower in your hair, my little free birds. 

Not a Peep

First of all... I got new shoes! I have been LUSTING over these bad boys for about... Forever.
And I found them at The Rack for a steal of a deal!

Next, We're going to talk about insecurities. 
Let me start out by saying I love ME. I love who I am and I embrace every little quirky/odd/awesome thing about myself. As a Life and Style blogger (is that what I am?) I display pictures of myself in clothes and accessories in the high hopes that they are flattering. 
I like to think that I dress pretty well for my body type. 

Now, let's get down to business. I am 5'3" about 121 lbs (last time I checked) by national standards that's pretty "average." I eat what I want and do a little yoga to even it all out. 
So here's the deal my friends:
Love Handles.
Y'know... just a little extra around the sides. 


I have always had these. Even when I was playing soccer competitively and working out all the time, these babies hold of for dear life! 
But you know what? I'm okay with it. I guess I kind of have to be!


Despite what the media portrays and what "they" tell us is beautiful, I find beauty in the not-so-perfect. 
I'm a real girl. 
I have confidence in myself that is rooted deeply in my core and I hope that confidence is portrayed in what I do here. Not only do I love showing you my style and snippets of my life, I want to be a good example for all of my readers. Insecurities aren't talked about so much and I look up to bloggers such as Keiko Lynn who put it all out there. 

Love yourself for exactly who you are.
That's why I love you!
