Three Years
Posted on March 14, 2014 in Outfits
Three years ago today, I started this blog. I bought a DSLR, threw together my first outfit (mixed prints nonetheless!) and dragged my boyfriend to the park to snap a few photos. I had no idea what I was doing.
Not to mention, I was incredibly shy about blogging when it first launched. There I was, in my second year of law school, planning outfits instead of writing outlines. The worlds didn’t seem to mix, but I put myself out there in front of my friends, classmates and anyone else with internet access. And I have never looked back.
Now my blog is an extension of me and I couldn’t be happier. I would say it’s a labor of love, but it doesn’t feel like labor ever. I blog because I want to inspire others, but also because it inspires me. It drives me to experiment with my personal style, to experience new things and to go beyond my comfort zone.
This week, I’ve been looking back on how my style has evolved over the past three years, but what astounds me more is how much I’ve personally evolved since starting this blog. I can genuinely say that I’m more confident, more colorful, more curious and hell of a lot happier for it. Most of all, I’m so proud to have friends like you following along! Here’s to many more stylish years to come! xo

You just expressed pretty much my exact feelings about blogging (including the law school part…although I started the summer after year 1!). Congrats on the milestone. I love following you and can’t wait to see what you have in store in the future!
