I Graduated!!

For Love & Lemons San Marcos Mini Dress in Red Jeffrey Campbell La Cage Gladiators in Nude

I started this blog shortly after graduating high school and here I am now a college graduate??! It’s been almost a week and it still hasn’t hit me. A BFA in Illustration? Ahhh, my dreams came true. I had to put in so much effort to be able to go to the school of my dreams and somehow I made it happen. Literal blood, sweat, and tears went into this. I’m seriously still in so much disbelief.

I bought this dress months ago. When it came out, I knew it was beautiful and all that but when I realized it’d be perfect for the occasion, I had to wait for a restock in order to be able to get it because it sold out like wild fire! And in my least original outfit yet, these are also the shoes from the lookbook. I didn’t intend on wearing these but my other pair were shipped to Miami accidentally and came in after I already moved out of Rhode Island–oops!

Also, loved my makeup (I somehow accomplished it myself) and you can see a better photo of it here. In a typical “me” move, my nails were done as I was heading out the door and walking to the convention center, only to have my sister step on my freshly done toes and take out a nice chunk. Because it wouldn’t be a “me” moment if it were perfect.

Bear with me as posts are a little out of order for a sec but, yes, as of now I am in Miami and I’m ready to take my hometown by storm! So excited to be blogging from here again. I’m missing the Northeast soooo much but I’ll be back there in due time.
