Storage.

I have been on the look out for the perfect record storage. It is difficult to find a shelf that is deep enough and I don't have the resources to build my own custom shelf. I want to be able to display my collection, and also have my record player near by. Oh, the woes of vinyl.  

I came across this cute record storage case on Modcloth. It may not hold my entire collection but it would be supper cute. Plus, I could take them with me!

Caramel, anyone?

Yay! My first real appearance on my own blog! 90% of this outfit came from Modcloth. I have been addicted to their style for quite sometime now. Also, I will forever use my Cambridge satchel. Every time I try to use a new bag, I feel like I'm betraying myself. I love finding things that can be staples, not only for style but I can use this for future professions. 





P.s. I was really looking for the cat that was meowing in the bushes.

Having It Togther.

 It seems like here lately at my workplace, I have heard countless comments about "having it all together". The conversation always comes up when the "It" girl comes around. You should know her, the girl who smells as if dirt has never ever touched her body, looks as though she came out of the womb wearing make up, paper white teeth, brand new clothes...I could keep going on about how perfect she is but we all know her when we see her.
 I feel a little disdain when we all gather around to tell stories about how we will be like the girl who just passed by, and everyone else will want to be like us or assume we have it all together in our lives and  will be proud when we flash a smile. Is any of that real life? Sure, maybe these girls have the time to put themselves together before they walk out the door, but is that really all there is to them? Good looks? We never sit around and discuss how the "It" girl looks so great because she worked for it. Or is a career girl who really puts forth an effort to be the best she can be.
 I always picture the same kind of life style for these girls. They have the time because someone is taking the time to make their life comfortable and they can be put together. Maybe, I'm wrong, maybe these girls are just so successful at life that their looks mirror it. I guess the real point or question I am trying to make is "Do I want to be these girls?" Do I really want to impress people when I walk by or would I rather try doing something  that was impressive?  It's hard to answer.
 Perhaps this is the fallout of graduating college and not really doing what you should have done after the fact.

Currently obsessed.


I am currently in love with maps. I'm not sure what it is about them but I love finding things with a map print. 




I found this awesome watch on Amazon.

Lustful.


Just a list of clothing I would like to own. I know that summer is close to over but I think these would be great transition pieces.

To begin again.

   I always have the idea that one day I will have a blog. One that will probably be just like all the other blogs that I read, one based on fashion, amazing photos to display all the awesome clothes I own, etc...it's a lot easier to dream of than doing it. Plus, when I feel like comparing my attempts to the blogs I love, mine is no where near the level of those. So, I want to try again, this time, to find my voice and to not try so hard to have something everyone else has.

    To start this out, I am a journalism major with no job from my degree. I have one attempt at a  job related to my degree, only to find that it was only good on paper. I have zero attempts at trying to find a new job and I am currently content with my fast food job.

    Of course that sounds like a terrible way to start a blog but lets be honest, I'm being real. I do not have an answer as to why I have given up a search for my dream job. Perhaps, I have just become lazy or I have no confidence in myself to land a job, and even start a career. Most would argue that I am wasting my degree and that I wasted four years of my life only to end up at the beginning. Maybe I am, or maybe I am just now taking the steps to begin a journey.  Either way, I'm ready to find what I'm looking for.
