This is a much longer and more vulnerable post than usual, but here we go. When I started my blog, I was super self-conscious and worried constantly what others would think about it. I really wanted a hobby and a creative outlet, but most importantly, I wanted the community that I noticed was forming back when I first started posting my #ootd's on Instagram. What I didn't know was that this little space on the internet would introduce me to some of my very best friends. Girls that I feel like I have known my whole life, can talk for hours on end about anything, and will be close friends for life because we share this one special (albeit, unorthodox) "hobby" aka my part-time job that is blogging.
We decided a few months ago that we all wanted to go to New York Fashion Week. An experience that none of us have had before but has always been a goal. And it is finally happening! I am so excited to be traveling to the Big Apple next week with some of my closest friends to experience this amazing and fast-paced week of fashion.
If you had told me a year ago that I would be having this opportunity, and that I would have met these girls, I would have told you that you were lying. Moral to the story here is if you want to pursue something, do it. Even if you think that people will judge you for it. Because honestly, that is a reflection of them, not you. Blogging has been such an amazing, unique and fulfilling experience and I wouldn't change it for the world.
Cheers to friendships and once-in-a-lifetime experiences! I'll be posting about my experience as well as lots of outfits, so stay tuned! And be sure to follow me on Snapchat (@lmidd14) for a behind-the-scenes look!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
