One Year Blogiversary



Hi everyone!

January 9th marks my one year blogiversary!

When I decided to start my blog, I quickly became both eager and nausea. I have always loved my curves and never struggled with self-acceptance. I was never teased about my weight, if anything I was accepted because of my full curvy figure. Maybe that's a southern thing.

I was nervous that people wouldn't understand my style, I felt like I didn't fit into a specific "category."
I quickly found out the best category was just being myself. I love textures, prints, vintage, and feminine silhouettes. I didn't realize this into I noticed a trend in my blogging, I grasped that concept and immediately started monthly themes. The themes quickly helped me become organized, which elevated frivolous spending and unplanned blogging.

Over the past year I have grown to appreciate some of my favorite bloggers. It's not just picking out cute outfits. You have to be the stylist, the model, the writer,  and editor. I really appreciate my friend, Grashunda for encouraging me. When I told her I wanted to start blogging she quickly convinced me to hit the ground running, and even did my make up and hair until I could get things together. I really appreciate my mom for being my consistent photographer, my sister and boyfriend also wore the photographer hat and made me feel comfortable.





My first year of blogging has been amazing. Looking forward to many more!!!

  6. I'd style the black outfit with some bold shoes, maybe a cute leopard heel or a nude pump... Bring it out with a matching clutch and some dope jewelry to make it stand out. The purple gown would be nice with a great strappy heel, a matching small clutch and some really cute statement earrings.
