25 The Year To Thrive

On November 20th a star was born! Jk, it was just me haha. I didn’t get to finish my birthday post on my birthday so here it is now… a week later. I turned 25 on the 20th and I usually don’t celebrate odd numbers because I feel like they’re bad luck (yeah, I know I’m weird haha) but this year needed to be celebrated! Plus, I have 5 years before I’m 30 and I don’t even want to think about that.

Part of me was actually scared to turn 25 because life has been going by so fast and I thought to myself, “Am I really living my life to the fullest or am I just living?” I realized in some aspects of my life I’m just living and that’s not how it should be. My 25th year, I want to make sure I’m living life to the fullest and accomplishing all the goals I said I would complete at the age of 24.

My 24th year was a year of growth and patience and I couldn’t be more proud of how much I’ve grown. I know there is still more growing and learning to do and I am ready for it all. 25 is the year to thrive and that is what I am going to do, THRIVE! Here’s to 25! Happy Birthday to me 🙂

Also, I am wearing the TopshopXHalpern Collection:

DIY Flowered Boots From Zara

Have y’all ever come up with a creative idea in a bubble bath while drinking a wine? Well, I have! It seems to me that sometimes all my ideas for coming up with outfits have popped in my mind when I’m relaxing in my bubble bath after work with a glass of wine. Let me get to the real topic of this post…

I purchased these Zara boots about a year ago and they have been sitting in my closet ever since. There’s only two reasons for that: 1. because they came up all the way up my leg and I’m so short 2. I had nothing to wear with. These boots actually sold out once and I kept checking the website to see if they would restock and the one day they did, I just purchased them and called it a day. I actually attempted to take them to a shoe cobbler to see if they could be taken in or shortened, but on my way there I got called into work earlier than expected (my luck right.) While enjoying my bubble bath, I got an idea for this outfit and then another bright idea to cut these beauties. Now they fit me just fine!

For a girl, who doesn’t love flowers, I’m obsessed with the roses print on these boots and they’re my favorite color, blue! I wore these boots with a shirt dress and layered it with a lace-up crop top. I accessorized with cat eye sunglasses and a square black bag from ASOS.

Hope you like it!!

First Shein Purchase

You ever feel like you always order from the same websites? If you agree, then you know how I felt when I wanted to try out a new website. The website I decided to try out was shein.com. I’ve always seen advertisements of Shein and I’ve seen local bloggers wearing their clothes. I didn’t really decide to order from them until a local fashion blogger by the name of Michelle sent me an item that looked similar to a skirt I had worn. I clicked the website, started browsing and I was hooked. They have clothes, accessories, home stuff and more!

It took me a few pages to find something that I really liked and it’s only because I like unique pieces. I found this graphic print skirt and it immediately reminded me of Zendaya’s Moschino dress that she wore to the Greatest Showman premier in Australia. I knew I had to have it ! I chose 2nd day shipping and the price was $12.90 only because I needed it ASAP for my shoot, which was the beginning of the next week. It took 3 days to arrive. The size small fit pretty good; I may only have to get it taken in about 1/2 an inch.

I styled the skirt with a white blouse, but I decided to only button up the shirt half way and wear it off my shoulders. I accessorized with a watch and a black purse. I wanted to keep it simple since the skirt already said it all haha!

Hope you like it 🙂
