I like to think that I'm a pretty adventurous person. I'll pretty much wear anything, try any trend and my love off all things colorful occasionally has me dressing like a walking bag of Skittles. I wear it. I own it! But I realized a few months ago that a lot of things scare me or just flat out give me anxiety. Are these things "scary," or have I just built up the fear in my mind? It's the latter.A few weeks ago I went on a trip to Nashville with Chevy and I had to seriously ask myself, "did I make a huge mistake???" Though Chevy was our sponsor, there was a fitness component to the trip, including CrossFit and kayaking. Um, CrossFit absolutely freaks me out. The workout just seems so hardcore. I like working out, but those workouts just seem too intense. And as far as kayaking? I can't swim and have a serious fear of large bodies of water. So this trip would have normally been something I said no-way to, but instead I said, let's do it!Chevrolet Silverado CrossFit Event - Nashville

Ah, the button down shirt. Pretty much everyone has at least one in their closet and you can find them at pretty much every, any store. And understandably so. The style is a classic.But while you might wear a button down in the traditional way {buttoned down!}, you can absolutely have fun and remix it. You can even turn a button down into a trendy crop top and even a halter. Don't believe me? I'm showing you how. And it's ridiculously easy.Black printed button down shirt styled as a crop top

Ah, summer is here. Well, it's not officially here and it's been a little chilly and gloomy in NYC lately, but summer is just a few weeks away. That means it's summer style season aka maxi dress season. Yay, right?! But if you're anything like me, then you might dread shopping for a maxi. My specific dilemma is that I'm short. 5'2" to be exact.But I've found a few ways to embrace my love of the maxi dress without dragging the hem on the ground or tripping over it. And of course I'm sharing them with you! Looking Fly on a Dime: black maxi dress with a red crop top

My birthday is exactly one month away {woo hoo, Cancers!} and I naturally can't stop thinking about what I know now that I wish I knew then. That includes everything from love to finances and even personal style.My 20s were full of style envy. I worked at fashion magazines so I was naturally envious of the celebs on the pages of the mag and even the coworkers I encountered every single day. They just looked so great and I just...well, I wasn't really sure.But looking back, there are a few things I know for sure and that I'd tell my younger self.White Coastal cat eye glasses, gray v-neck shirt and printed black pants

It's been a while since I've been overly excited about something on the blog. Last year I shared an in depth post about blogging burn out and why I stopped blogging for six months. Also, I made it clear I wanted to provide something that's really beneficial versus just posting content on the blog for the sake of having a weekly post. I knew I wanted to create something fun and accessible. Oh, and free. That's why I've been working overtime on my first e-course.I'm so excited to finally launch 5 Days to a More Stylish Wardrobe!Cover for Fashion E-course 5 Days to a More Stylish Wardrobe
