Paisley Perfect



The past few days have been a bit of a whirlwind. Last Friday, I got an unexpected call from my mom about my dad's health. I don't want to go into too much, but he ended up in the emergency room. Luckily, he is back home now and we are awaiting more answers. In the meantime, a best friend's dad passed away...again...a bit unexpected. Plus, I have been going through a few other personal details, but everything is getting ironed out.
I feel like when I step away from blogging or social media, I owe you guys an explanation. I know you are NOT sitting around waiting for my next post, but still. I have loyal friends that come here and support me, so I feel like I should share why I take a few breaks here and there.
I have always told myself that my personal "life" comes first, everything else can take the back seat. I love what I do, the friendships I've made and the opportunities that come with blogging, but at the end of it all, I will choose to focus on real life and not beat myself up if a miss a few posts here and there.
I REALLY appreciate you guys coming back even though things haven't been as consistent as they were in the past. I can only hope you will check in every now and again and say hi. Your reading and coming here will always be a huge part of my life!

The bright side? I actually got "dressed" yesterday and had a nice afternoon with an old friend. I have been meaning to wear my Barcelona top and ankle pants for over a week, but didn't have a reason. It felt good to fix my hair, throw on some heels and feel normal again. I highly recommend you guys check out Express for the latest Spring finds. I am in love with all their tops and of course, as we all know, their pants are classic and fit like a glove.
Happy shopping and thanks again for all the support!! xoxo
