This page is unlike the average “Style Blogger” category. I don’t have that talented boyfriend that is at my side 24/7, taking outfit pictures of me. I’m pretty low-key everyday and I’ll only take pictures of an outfit if I’m out n’ about in a cool outfit or at an event. This page is dedicated to my personal style and how it has evolved over the years. I do A LOT of DIY and I design of of my apparel and accessories. If you’d like me to make a custom garment or accessory, please contact me!
Comments are always appreciated!
Please note: All pictures are in order top to bottom, oldest to newest.
