Style Like Me: Part 2

Monday, August 28, 2017






I was going to spread this series out, but you know me, I'm too excited to wait. I mean, I waited 17 days to post part 2, but I'M POSTING ANYWAY! I had a lot of fun taking photos of these ladies and they were dream volunteers. 10/10 would take pictures of them again. Enjoy their photos and their amazing individual personalities!!

1) How would you describe your personality?


 Probably very dark to be honest. Very passionate and sort of curious.


2) How would you describe your style?


 My style is probably just like an eclectic collection of different pieces and styles that I kind of mesh together. Some days I'm more girly and other days, I'm really boho, or some days I can be kinda witchy, autumn vibes. It sort of depends on the season and mood.



3) How do you connect your personality with your style?

Overall, it's just about mood and feeling. I think sort of like personality wise, my music taste really influences what I'm wearing or pop culture, the media, maybe sort of like a more indie, grungy side of that. I find a lot of inspiration from the alternative, loving side of me that I really put into my fashion.


4) What are three things that you love about yourself? 

Probably my eyelashes, my desire to know and gain knowledge, and I pride myself in my style so probably that. 








Emily



1) How would you describe your personality?



Hmm I think I would definitely describe my personality as "comfortable." I try to have a comfortable environment just because I don't like feeling stressed or upset. Anything that allows me to have the most easy-going situation, I'll do. I like to feel good, and have others around me feel stress free as well. Over all, I like having comfortable fun, in my house, drinking my wine, and watching a movie in peace. That's a good night for my personality!


2) How would you describe your style?

My style changes but I think I've gotten around to "go-to" looks I have. I certainly dress to feel comfortable. I love sweats, joggers, loose sweaters, leggings, you name it. I don't really go above and beyond with my outfits. I'm not gonna be walking around in skin tight clothes, or heels. When I do feel a little fancier, I go for a "60's" comfy mod style. I like turtlenecks and skirts and jean skirts and dresses and stuff that is nice and classy like a black suede skirt with a black turtleneck. So ya girl can get a little fancy hahaha


3) Do you ever connect your personality with what you wear?


FOR SURE!!! I dress the way I am because if I don't feel comfortable in my clothes, I most likely won't feel good all day. Even if I look like I rolled out of bed, i'm okay with that, as long as i'm comfortable.




4) Name 3 things you love about yourself?

girllll I love that I can eat an entire pizza from Little Caesars and be UNPHASED! hahaha. I love that i'm good at talking to people and having them talk to me. I like that about me. And I like that I can stand up for myself. I have little patience sometimes, and usually, when it comes to keeping my friends safe or happy, i'll try to speak up as much as I can.

Top 5 of Life: August

Wednesday, August 16, 2017



For all those who are new to my blog, I like to write a monthly post about my 5 favorite things in my life and it can really be ANYTHING. It's a popular YouTube segment, but I decided to write about it instead! I hope you enjoy!


((These top 5's are also part of July but hey, who's paying THAT close of attention?))

1) Birthdays. Now, I know a lot of people hate birthdays and I did too, back when I was super sad about my life. Which was YEARS upon years of depression. I hated getting older. But after my 21st birthday which was one of my worst birthdays ever, I decided to enjoy them. My 22nd birthday had someone who was way more famous than me send me beautiful roses and it was amazing. My past birthday (on July 25th) was my 24th birthday was even better than my 23rd. I had a great full day of friends and laughter and lots of balloons and cake! I love birthdays. I really do. 



2) Dunkirk. Okay okay, just because Harry Styles is in it doesn't mean my opinion will change. I think it was an okay movie. Confusing in parts, boring in others, but by golly, the cinematography was GORGEOUS. I saw it in XD so the screen was massive, and the sky and the ocean were so crisp and that's really what I stared at half the time, how beautiful it was. The movie was 100% not Oscar worthy and Harry Styles didn't get a role where he should be nominated for an Oscar, but everyone did a fine acting job. It's just the beautiful nature scenes that should win ALL THE OSCARS. 

3) Going out to work on internet things. I love bringing my computer to little cafes, Panera Bread, or Starbucks and working on my blog there. It gets me out of the house and the environment is so relaxing to me. You can go with friends or by yourself (I've done both) but either way, eating and writing is a win-win to me. 


4) Panera Bread's agave lemonade. It's a Panera post this month, I guess. I've been going there a lot recently and just discovered their lemonade made with lemons, cane sugar, and agave nectar. Normally I stay away from "healthy versions" of things. Not because I don't want to be healthy, but because I'm VERY picky and I most likely will think it tastes bad. BUT THIS LEMONADE IS AMAZING. It honestly tastes like regular fresh squeezed lemonade. It's just a bit healthier. I recommend this drink to anyone who needs a cool refreshing summer drink. 


5) The blogging community. I'm less than a year into this whole new blog of mine (not counting my mental health blog I used to have), so I'm really a newbie. I just made a Twitter and an Instagram specifically for my blog (which does include some personal life tweets sometimes) but I only really follow other bloggers on these accounts. I had no idea there was a whole community of bloggers and how NICE they are! I have yet to encounter a rude blogger, although I do bet there is someone like that out here. I felt so welcomed by the community and ever since joining, my views on my blog have went WAY up. I'm very thankful for them and their open arms, even when I'm still new to all this!

Style Like Me: Part 1

Friday, August 11, 2017






I decided to start a series on style and personality because I find it really cool that in most people's lives, those two connect. Sometimes without even realizing it. As for me, I would say that I'm a funny and witty person who can't get enough music. As for my style, I own a lot of Twilight shirts and I wear band shirts on a weekly basis. You see how my personality connects with my fashion choices (albeit, I'm not high fashion)? I just find that so interesting for some reason. I also LOVE photographing people. Nature is cool to shoot, but taking pictures of people make me really happy. So, I decided to create this series, Style Like Me. The people who volunteered for this are REALLY awesome and I hope you guys enjoy reading about the people, seeing their individuality, and like the series as a whole!

1) How would you describe your personality?

I would describe my personality as happy, positive and sometimes quiet. i definitely am an introvert. I dislike like being the center of attention which is weird because I'm a fashion blogger. I guess doing what I love pulls me out of my comfort zone and that's not a bad thing. 

2) How would you describe your style?

 I love mixing and matching things until I get what I'm looking for. I love trying new things. It's all about what makes you feel good and what you feel comfortable in.


3) Do you ever connect your personality with what you wear?

I definitely do, probably without even realizing it sometimes. I think that's what's so great about fashion, you can convey how you feel on the inside to match the outside. You really have ability to be yourself and probably is the reason why I gravitate towards clothes and fashion.

4) Name 3 things you love about yourself

 I would have to say if I could choose three things that I love about myself, it would be my ability to have a positive outlook on life. I think sometimes we all take life a bit too seriously and I think it's important to remember to find out what makes you happy. The second thing I would say is that I have such a great relationship with my family. Without them, I wouldn't be where I am today. My family is everything to me and what I cherish the most in this life. Lastly it would be my ability to love everyone. Maybe that is how I was raised but I always try to treat people the way I would like to be treated.

My Favorite Blogger: Zoe London

Saturday, August 5, 2017

I'm the first to admit, I'm not a big blog reader (SHOCK VALUE). I'll of course read the occasional blog but in all honesty, I just can't find my favorite. I enjoy La Femme Collective and The Debrief (which is England based) sometimes, but the rest is mainly fashion blogs that all look the same to me. I just thought I wouldn't ever find one I would like (besides mine...). Until Zoe London.


I actually don't remember when I started following Zoe on Twitter. I don't remember when I started following MOST people on Twitter. But I knew she was a DJ and made YouTube videos (where she has over 64 thousand followers). Every picture on Instagram and video on YouTube she would post just has such a good aesthetic quality that it's hard not to like. 

I then learned she had a blog too. I logged on to it and her tabs on top says she writes about fashion, lifestyle, food, beauty, music, travel and video. So really, she does it all. If I had money for all of what she does, I would love my life. 
______________

In her 'Fashion' category, she has some tips on blogging, life, and fashion week posts. 

In her 'Beauty' category, she has reviews, tips, and cute hair posts.


In her 'Lifestyle' category, she has blogging questions that people wanted answers to, and posts about herself. 

In her 'Music' category, she posts about music festivals (many which sponsor her, which is any bloggers goal), and some DJ posts.

In her 'Travel' category, she talks about getting engaged, and her trips to different cities and countries (which is ALSO any bloggers goal. At least it's MY dream to travel).

In her 'Food' category, which really hasn't been updated in a year, has posts about food festivals and fun places she's eaten.

And lastly, in her 'Video' category, she has lookbook tips, hair dyeing videos, and her video series "Band Does My Makeup".

So like I said earlier, Zoe has it all and does it all. If you need a new funky haired blogger, Zoe London is your girl.
