I think I'll post more #ootd on a regular basis. Some days, I get a lot of compliments on my outfits, which years ago I would have never imagined would happen! My style developed from observing others and basically trying on anything and everything I am drawn to, even if I think something will look terrible on me. I have found so many great pieces by challenging myself and ignoring my old fear of being "too fat for that!" My body doesn't need to change to fit into clothes... I need to find clothes I love that fit the body I love. If you never try, you'll never know. #plussize #curvygirl #effyourbeautystandards #celebratemysize #loveyourbody #loveyourself Dress/leggings: #Maurices @maurices Cardigan/belt: #torrid @torridfashion Knee-high socks/lace cami: #LaneBryant @lanebryant

Two years ago when I moved into my very first very own apartment, I had planned to crack open a bottle of champagne fir myself to celebrate. However, at the time, my move in date landed smack dab in the middle of a class project where I had vowed to give up alcohol for a few months. So instead, I got a bottle of sparkling grape juice and celebrated anyway! Tonight is my last night (alone) in my apartment. I decided I needed to bookend the experience with another bottle of sparkling grape juice. A108 means more to me than anyone could know. Despite the dastardly Elephant Family aboce me who tested my last nerve, I loved this little place. What it signifies will always hold a special place in my heart. Cheers to my years of finding myself all by myself and to the exciting new chapters ahead! ♡

My bosses at my graduate assistantship got me a journal as a thank you/goodbye gift. Totally unexpected and totally sweet.
