Livin' in Color

So the grad. party was an all around good time. Looking back on the night, I can't help but think about how my personality has changed. In the past I was always a black and white type of person. But over the past few months (post-grad), I've encountered so many changes that it would be impossible to think so extremely...black...white--good thing too, because I look ravishing in colors other than black, like coral for example ;) Anyway, back to the point I've been trying to make. At the party I ran into friends/acquaintances I haven't seen in years--and you know what? I liked them. All of them. Which makes me think...why did I pass such harsh judgements on people in the past? Why did I shut myself off from so many great people that surrounded me? I am completely different than my high school self (thank God!) and so much happier post-grad than I ever could have imaged.

By the way, I'm wearing: Maxi dress: Marshalls // Wedges: Dolce Vita for Target // Belt: Borrowed/stolen from Mom // Watch: Michael Kors

Here's to living a beautiful life! 

Slacker

How was every one's Thanksgiving?

Mine was pretty good: great food, family, and a bunch of laughs...
Despite the Holiday cheer: the colorful leaves, sweet aromas, gift giving guides, and (gasp, already!) Christmas music, it may be hard to believe that I am in a rut.
It's not like I am stressed, or heartbreakingly sad...I am just blah!
I wish I could clearly articulate my stresses or worries, it would probably be therapeutic and helpful but for some weird and bizarre reason, I can't get it out; I can't unleash the inner demons that are driving me mad right now, absolutely MAD!
I think it's the feeling of being stuck: stuck in a place, stuck with the same people (although I love everyone in my life). I crave something new and different, which is weird considering I am usually scared of change. I am just looking for something....new? different? unexpected? challenging?

I know this is a fashion blog, and no one wants to read about my foolish woes, so I guess I can appease you all...although I do not have an outfit post (major SLACKER, I have been bumming it since I have been home for break), I have something I want to show you guys!
These are the new black heels I got at Forever21 for $23.00.
They are super high and super cute and I can't wait to wear them at my sorority formal in December...all I need now is a dress....oh yeah, and a date!

What do you guys think? Do you love them as much as I do?

Anyway, I hope everyone is having a great Holiday Break, let me know all your black Friday purchases!
I hope I can get out of this rut: so far I have been trying with tons of Kettle Corn and movie--I went from Post Grad to Sweet November.
Wish me luck!

PS: I guess enjoying the simple things in life is my first step in getting over this rut. I am just going to take some advice from the character of Adam Davies in Post Grad,
"Every evil, terrible thing that ever occurs in the world is directly offset, counterbalanced if you will, by the complete utter joy of biting into an Eskimo Pie. It's the way we maintain balance in the universe."
