Stumped...

Hello everyone... So I truly love writing this blog but I just feel like I am at a standstill... I love fashion, and I love blogging about it, but I feel like my writing is so childish!! Why do I think this!?.. Does it have anything to do with my insecurities? I really have no idea! The only thing I know is that I really want to be more confident with my writing, and my choices in life beyond this blog...I need to learn that not everyone is looking at me, and not everyone is judging my every move!! I really don't know where these insecurities came from since I grew up being the outgoing, friendly, slightly crazy little girl.. As I got older, I guess pressure and competition led me to feeling scared and shy rather than being that "crazy" little girl I loved so much... 
It's a new year and I am going to try my absolute hardest to gain more confidence, go forward with things even if I am unsure, and just overall be that happy, outgoing girl I once was!
Back to FASHION!... Today I went to the outlets like always with my mom, and she bought me winter boots from Bass. Bass shoes is really growing in the fashion industry. It used to be a store that my mom shopped at and I HATED, but I grew to love this store, and it now appears all over the magazines such as Lucky. These boots are warm, waterproof, and my new obsession!
The inside is fur!!.. What do you think of the boots?

Back to NY

Yesterday was an extremely crazy day! Our flight to come home from Florida was supposed to be last Tuesday, but was canceled due to the extreme snow storm.. 20 inches of snow!!.. Anyways, because of this, we had to reschedule our flight for yesterday.. New Years Eve....
I had plans to go to my best friends house and order in food and have a fun, girls night in kind of party....The 4 of us have always been the quiet, yet extremely close group of girls in high school... We never really got friendly with any other girls at my school so our weekends consisted of us sitting at one of our houses, going out for dinners, movies, and shopping of course! quiet, but so much fun!
 So the point of the story is that our flight was supposed to be at 1:00 pm yesterday, getting us in to NY by 4...More than enough time to get to my friends house... However, something was wrong with our plane, and we were told to get off the plane with all of our things... After I had my freak out (I hate planes!) we were told that we were taking the 5:00 pm plane home... Long story short, by the time we got our luggage and ate dinner it was after 10.. I know this isn't late considering New Years is a crazy, long night but I just felt that I should be home with my family. I feel like my family grew so much this past year, and although we went through a lot, it made us all so much closer! I missed being with my friends last night but I really had a great night sitting at home, watching the ball drop with my family!
How was everyone else's New Years Eve?

Sale- Sale- Sale

Since the holiday's are finally over, NOW is the time to shop! As my mom repeatedly said, "everything is going to be soo cheap now! Wait until Christmas is over and then go shopping!".. Although I bought a sweater on sale at Anthropology last week (could not resist), I did not purchase anything else in stores besides Marshalls (since they don't have sales there anyway)... I can't wait to go home and see all my favorite store's like Urban Outfitter and Free People hopefully with long, beautiful sale racks!
I also discovered a new fashion site called ASOS. I found this brand in the Teen Vogue magazine last week and have become obsessed! This site has everything from clothes, to accessories, and even style updates and blogs of how to wear their clothes to keep up in this changing fashion world. They are having a crazy sale right now of 70% off and I am loving it! Lets just say.. I already have a shopping bag of about 20 things I want.. You should really check it out.. Here's one thing I am definitely eyeing 

... This is a Silk Blazer inspired by Alexa Chung (my style icon).. Not only do you find adorable clothes on this site, but you can also check off the celebrity you want to dress like, and it gives you a list of clothes they wear ...how cool is that!?! Alright as you can see, I am a little hooked on this site and need to keep looking!! What celebrity would you guys want to dress like???

Cute AND Practical boots

So I know I'm still in the sunny, (usually) warm sunshine state, Florida, but it's actually sooo cold here! I mean I'm not in a blizzard like I would be at home in New York but this is not the Florida weather that I am used to.. I usually come here where it is typically 80 degrees, and definitely pool weather. However, this year it has been around 60 and even 40 degrees at night!! All I want to do is wrap myself in a blanket and drink a big coffee!! (I'm a coffee addict) Anyways, while I was wishing I had my Ugg boots with me, I realized that I still needed to buy a pair of winter boots to wear in the snow back at school. I was browsing on my usual site, Free People, and stumbled upon a pair of adorable boots that I just had to post here!! They are a little up there on price, but extremely practical and cute!! What do you all think!??



I'm going to blog more later I'm sure.. There are just so many things I want to post!!!!

A Day of Beauty

Today when I looked outside, it seriously looked like it was about to snow!! It was so dark and gloomy outside... I went to return some things with my mom this morning, had lunch at home (PB sandwich..my Favorite!!) and then went to get a mani/pedi with my sister C. 
I wanted to be fashionable yet comfy today and I think I nailed it!.. I wore thick, blue Forever 21 leggings paired with my moms turtleneck sweater... I also wore my new Kate Spade earrings that my dad bought for me last night as a pick me up.. I was so happy that I was also able to buy my sister a pair that I knew she was eyeing!! Anyways, tomorrow I am off to Florida to stay with my G-ma for a week. I can't wait to see her and spend good old bonding time with her!! She's the funniest, craziest, most loving person I know... Hope everyone is having a great week!!

Sooo Happy!

So today I had to get some things checked out and I am beyond happy with the results!!.. I have been trying so hard these past couple of days to get my life back to normal and it is finally working!... I am starting to really appreciate, and love life. I am not worrying about the small, unimportant things that many people usually get so wrapped up in. I just realized that there is no point of being unhappy and stressed over the little things of life because thats not what makes life so great!... 
Anyways, Today I went to Forever 21 and Target with my mom and sister.. Although I did not purchase anything this time (SHOCKER), I had a lot of fun watching my sister buy things for herself since it's usually the other way around..
 Today I wore plaid once again (loving it lately!)..a plaid Urban Outfitters shirt, black wide leg, seven jeans, mustard colored J.Crew scarf, and my hightop brown Sperry boots. My style really changed ever since I went to school but I am really liking it. I have fun changing up my style a little bit...Make's fashion so much more exciting!!
