Many times I have to remind myself that even though I’m no longer 17, I’m still really young. Really young. Being really young means transition, confusion, mistakes and lots of questions. It’s assuring myself that it’s very natural to feel that I’m doing things in an incorrect order, or at the wrong pace.
At this moment I am just happy to be in a really cool place, have great health, and the ability to take myself as far as I believe I can.

The styles are beautiful [in L.A.]. People have their own trends and their own authentic swagger, but it’s not what I gravitate toward. Maybe if I was born and raised there, I would have warmed to it. I admire it, but I’m detached from it. I’m very visual. When I’m in New York, I walk down the street and find myself complimenting everybody. I like when people put things together because they felt like it, not because they wanted to impress someone. You can always tell when someone is dressing for other people, but I just love when people dress for themselves.

Instagram Roundup // Week One

Instagram has become an integral part of my daily routine, and I love checking up on my feed to see who’s posting what (and where)! I generally keep a record of which photos I really adore over time, and I’m hoping I can keep up with sharing which Instagrams — and their ‘grammers — I really admire.
Enjoy my first round of ‘grams, all from this past week!

Anthropologie features this montage on their homepage showing how to take one look from summer to fall/winter. I love this idea — one dress for every season, with the addition of layers. Something to think about when living in hot (soon to be chilly, then cold) New York.
