I started this blog two years ago because I adore all things fashion and beauty. At the time I hadn’t realized exactly WHY I love these things. Reflecting back now, I’ve come to see that makeup isn’t just something fun. Being able to try out new palettes or products and then review or offer advice on how to best use them has become an outlet. In the time that I lapsed from blogging I found myself doing just this with my friends. Talking about what just  hit the market, what I purchased at the Sephora sale and what I need to return because it just doesn’t work for me. Sharing my love of all things beauty is why I wanted to start a blog.

Similarly, fashion plays an equally large part in my life. Growing up I was told that you only get one chance to make a first impression, and that all you need is a little effort and you can look put together. I’m always on the hunt for affordable fashion, good sales and testing out the latest trends. Trying out fashion services and subscription boxes is so much fun, and has introduced me to brands I had never heard of. Fashion and beauty are outlets for me, and if I can share what I’ve learned along the way, then I feel like that makes all my trial and error worth it.

So, while I can’t promise I’ll be perfect right off the bat, I want to get back to sharing this journey. I’ve stopped and started numerous times, but I’m optimistic that there are people out there who will want to hear what I have to say and to share. Stay tuned, because I’m hopefully just getting started (again!).
