& Just Throw it in the Bag

Good morning! I’m challenging myself to post at least three times a week and three times in one day won’t count. I also want to post more of my beautiful city on here. Hope everyone is enjoying their Hump Day. Lately I’ve been into Crossbody bags because most of them come medium sized. The larger…

& I Leaped from the iCult & Wandered into the Galaxy

I was faithful to my iPhone for about five years.  You couldn’t tell me that the iPhone wasn’t the best phone on the market. My best friend would tell me otherwise and I never took her serious until the iPhone 6 dropped and I started to question why I was buying the same phone over…

& Summer’s Almost Over

Boot season & layering is almost upon us and I’m sort of okay with that. My summer has been pretty darn awesome. I won tickets to Cedar Point and got to take three people with me for an overnight trip to the park and the water park. Then, my mom and my aunt took me…

& 31

Dear Self, When you open this in the year 2020 you’ll probably smile amused by 2015 problems. You have a thing for stressing out about small things and hopefully you’ll grow out of that by 30. It’s weird because you also see the bright things in most situations. I may come off as chill but…
