Happy New Year! I'm currently sitting and trying to catch up with things that need to be done. I'm making a list of blog improvements to come and I'm immensely excited. This year has been full of random surprises and I would have to say it was okay. As some of you know, this year has been quite a struggle for me. Everyone has ups and downs and I'm just in a period full of downs. These last few months have been better than I expected. I've managed to get through another year and that's always good. I've been pulling through and I constantly remind myself to keep on going. So, that's what I've been doing. This year has also included some thoughts on what do with my life. I've always had a thing for writing and fashion. I thought it would be great to mix the two. Blogging has been a good outlet for me and you all are a huge help. I couldn't ask for anyone better. You're positive comments are a part in the reassurance to keep me striving for my goals. 

I apologize for having an emotional post today and not much of one talking about fashion. I promise to keep the sappy posts at a bare minimum. 

This monthly marvels are trends that I'm currently seeing at high school. Going to a public school in the middle of nowhere doesn't really give you much of a variety fashion wise. I'll be back soon (Hopefully in a few days!) and I'll introduce some new things. 

I hope you all have had good holidays! 

With love,
Carmen 

Very Belated Christmas

Hi guys! I've been gone for quite awhile and I apologize for my absence. I missed doing my bug Christmas post and I was so excited about it. I wanted to share my outfit with you on Christmas but I didn't have much time. My sister were still wrapping presents on Christmas day! We eventually got toolazy to wrap them so we found some cute christmasy boxes to wrap them in. I've never had a more hectic Christmas.

Anyways, the purpose of this post is to give you a bit of insight of my posts to come. I was thinking of doing interviews every month and do a giveway sometime during the new year. I'll stick to doing Monthly Marvels posts and I might throw in a few instagram updates. I hope this makes you all very happy about the future of this blog. Feel free to email or comment some ideas. I don't mind and my inbox is slightly empty.

With love,
Carmen

Today has been a slightly laid back day. I spent most of it going through my closet for possible outfits. I've managed to wear fuzzy socks everyday and I've got a large collection of them. Tights have become my winter essential. With the temperature slowly decreasing, it's been a hard time finding things to do outside of the house. 

The last couple of weeks have been a bit of a battle for me. For some reason, I've managed to rethink my whole life and what I want in the future. I think I'm to the point where I point out every flaw that I have and I've been in a constant confused state. For the last few years I've planned out my whole future and now I'm questioning everything to come. I want a career that I love and enjoy, but my mind has convinced me that I will never be able to achieve my goals. 

I think it's safe to say that I want to put as much effort into blogging. I think I'm going to introduce a few new posts. Maybe an interview with another blogger, a giveway, or maybe a small Q&A. Feel free to comment what you'd like to see on here.

With love,

Hi everyone! I was planning on posting this about 2 weeks ago. I just wanted to start back my monthly marvels series. Christmas is coming soon and I'm so excited. I was thinking of doing a giveaway after Christmas and I'd love to have you guys' input. I'll be back in a little bit. 

With much love,
