Through The Lens


The worst part of winter is not being able to run around without a coat on. I can't stop dreaming about the summer, and it's soooooo far away. I don't think it helps that this is going to be the coldest week so far. Nothing wrong with some warm thoughts right? I've been trying to snap some quick pictures whenever I get a chance because it's been so cold, and I am still feeling under the weather. This week is already starting off way better than last week and I am going to enjoy a few more days off before Monday rears its ugly head.

I am in the process of figuring out post graduation plans, which is pretty exciting for me. I am hoping to have more ideas that I can put into action soon, and more planning can be done one step at a time. The great thing about dreams is that they really are achievable if you have the patience and perseverance to see them through. As time creeps closer, I promise to share more details with you guys, and hopefully I will have more news very soon. 

In other news, my online class ends today! I will be taking my final after work and I am so happy to be done with it, I am ready for the spring semester! My classes this semester include small store fashion retailing, fashion merchandising, contemporary retail management, my internship class, and a team development workshop. I am most excited for the small store fashion retailing class. When I saw my advisor a few months ago, she thought it would be a good idea for me to take this course since I ultimately want to own my own business. If I had more time I would definitely be taking more classes (electives) that aren't mandatory for graduation. I have also thrown around the idea of taking some jewelry making classes after graduation just for fun.

Anyway! Before any more rambling takes place, I hope you guys have a great day. Keep that smile on. xo

  11. I was an art minor in college and there was a metal working class that focused a lot on jewelry making. I always thought it would be cool, but I just didn't have enough room in my schedule to squeeze it in.

    Anyway, really cute boots!

  15. Gorgeous outfit! We're entering our coldest week yet (down in the teens), as well... immediately following "winter" weather of 60+ degrees! I haven't been able to put away my fall wardrobe but I can't quite wear my winter wardrobe either.
