Good Enough
If I’m honest, I’m nervous to post this — I actually wrote it about a 3 weeks ago haven’t felt the courage until now. It’s kind of a touchy and serious subject for me… I want my blog to be encouraging and uplifting, and I want you to get to know me through what I write. I want to be an open book. I want to be honest with you. I want to inspire you because we are on this journey together. In order to get to know me, I think you should know something that I have struggled with lately that I am absolutely positive many of you struggle with…

Autumn Style // 1 Sweater, 2 Ways
Having a friend who owns a nice camera and loves taking pictures is something I’m thankful for. Recently, my friends, sister, and I ventured outside to a couple of different locations for a photoshoot. I’ve been wanting to do a style profile on here, and this was the perfect opportunity! I also included a couple of pictures of my friend Emma and my sister Abby because they’re super pretty! Here you have a couple of my favorite outfits. I love the layered fall look and mainly stick to neutrals in the fall and winter months. I wanted to share with you how you can dress up or dress down a simple…

Tip Tuesday // Treat Yourself
Often, we get caught up in the anxiety and stress of our daily lives. I like to take time and special moments to treat myself to a few of my favorite things. For me, these include a nice bath with deliciously lovely bath bombs & bubbles, a quick makeup shopping trip, an ice cream treat, browsing Pinterest & a few of my favorite blogs, or watching my favorite Netflix shows — these include Supernatural and Reign, which I recommend to all! Believe me. It’s perfectly fine and wonderful to take time to yourself. Many people of all ages in this day & age tend to be busy-bodies, never giving themselves a…

Wisdom Wednesday
Each second is special and yours to take. Value every moment and make the best of it. You’ll never encounter the exact same one twice. Embrace every bit — the easy, the hard, the good, the bad, the somewhere in between. Make the memories mean something important. Enjoy it all. xoxo, KB

Tip Tuesday
Very simple, yet effective… Drink lots of water everyday!! Water is vital for life and offers many benefits. These include things like better skin, less calorie intake, and just making your body and psyche feel incredibly energized overall. One thing I do to aid in my hydration intake is always having a Camelbak full of ice water with me at school. Even if I don’t feel thirsty, I often surprise myself by how much my brain and body appreciate a bit of H2O!! I usually end up drinking about 2 full ones at school alone. It’s amazing how much I’ve noticed drinking water has made a difference. It’s just one…

Like what is happening currently, the occasional long post will also be up whenever I feel motivated or have something on my mind. Just wanted to keep you all informed on what is to…

Finding Mr. Right
I recently found a blog post through FaceBook titled “An open letter from Mr. Right.” It really opened my eyes, ears, and heart to who I often think my “Mr. Right” could be and who I should think he could be. It starts off basically telling me that he is “no fairytale hunk” (to quote it directly), which is, honestly, what I’ve pictured my whole life. I would dream of being swept off my feet and drowning in romantic moments. I dreamed of falling hopelessly in love with my Mr. Right/Prince Charming. I wanted my love story to be as perfect as it is in every Disney movie. No matter how much I dream and…

Current Favorites: Beauty + Random
It’s currently about 9:15 on a Saturday night & I am listening to “Today’s Top Hits” on Spotify. It’s currently playing a bit of Drake, and, for some reason, it felt like the perfect time to write. Sometimes, I just get in the mood to write–these moments usually bring out the best posts because the content is often not forced. It just seems to flow so effortlessly from my brain, through my fingers, and onto the screen using typing methods taught by Mrs. Casey. Even if I start this article now, it may take another day to finish it, which is probably what will probably happen considering the time of…
