The other day my friend and I were creeping on my blog, and she asked me when I started having a style blog. And really, I have only done this whole blogging thing for a little over a year and a half (I'm not counting random elementary school diary blogs, hah). It wasn't until my junior year of high school that I even knew of the existence of fashion and blogging (in the sense of fashion blogging), and not until summer after junior year that I started taking pictures of my outfits. It's crazy to think of how far my personal style has come, from just wearing dresses and slacks and t-shirts until I was a sophomore (girls weren't allowed to wear jeans at my old school), to jeans and shirts and sometimes dresses my junior year, and now I'm wearing floral on floral and sporting rings and scarves. I wonder what my style will look like in the next five years. I guess we will just have to wait and see.





Also, it's Friday! Hope you guys have an awesome day!

This is my friend Dane. I had set up a photoshoot in my dorm room and Dane came in and wanted to model so of course I let him. It's so much easier to have people model for me than having myself model, especially with photos like this where I have to manual focus. So if anyone who goes to my college wants to model for me, let me know!

Today was our school's carnival, which was actually just one inflatable ride and a couple games. I stood in line forever to get a henna tattoo that didn't even transfer very well, and Dane got a batman tramp stamp. It was super hilarious! All my other friends were other places so they missed out on the henna goodness. I've been thinking a lot about getting a tattoo and even though I'm terrified of needles, I really want to do it. I'll probably still wait a long time to make sure I actually want it, so never fear people. :)

I found the perfect spot to take photos. This place is right outside my dorm and even when people walk past it, most don't notice a person taking photos because they are usually looking straight ahead. So you will definitely be seeing this sidewalk again.

Also, my friend and I were creeping through some of my old blog posts, and man, I have improved a lot in terms of taking outfit photos. Some of my older posts were baaad! Haha, but I do love looking back on them and seeing how much I've grown in almost a year of having this blog.





I hope you guys have a fantastic day!

autumn leaves

Model is Allie.

It's officially fall. Tomorrow there is a fall festival at our school and all the leaves are changing colors and it makes me so happy because I haven't really experienced a real fall in a while. Alaska has about a week of the trees changing color and then winter rolls around, but here beautifully colored leaves practically cover the entire ground. It's amazing.
