Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there! Even though there’s only one day technically dedicated to these rock stars, we really should be acknowledging them every damn minute of every day. None of us would be who we are without our moms. Of course, not everyone is lucky enough to have a strong […]
We’ve all had that talk with a friend. That “you’re so much better than him” talk. That friend usually looks us as with sad, ashamed eyes. “I know,” she’ll say, as she looks down. But things don’t change. We tell her over and over that she deserves so much more. We list her best qualities […]
I’m a total quote hoarder. You probably didn’t even know that was a thing, but here I am. On the heels of my 2018 New Year’s resolutions post, I wanted to share some that have been speaking to me lately. I hope they speak to you, too! Colorfully Yours, Haley All images are from Pinterest.
Happy New Year, friends! Can someone tell me how 2018 crept up so quickly? Normally, I’m not a huge believer in New Year’s resolutions. If I have specific goals in mind, I try to set and accomplish them throughout the year, rather than “saving them up” for January. This year, though, I’m going to make […]
Throughout our lives, we’re told to “stop being so sensitive.” It comes out of people’s mouths like it’s a bad word. Whenever we visibly feel something, we’re told we’re overreacting. People even blame our hurt feelings on our sensitivity as opposed to their own actions. So, what’s wrong with being sensitive? I, for one, think […]
It’s official. As of last night at approximately 11:04 PM, I am 26 years old. I’m more than halfway through my twenties. How did that happen?! The last year has been one of my best and one of my hardest. I learned a lot of lessons—many that I didn’t want to learn, but that were […]
This fall, I am turning 26 years old. I’m more than halfway through my twenties. How is that even possible?! While I’m freaking out just a teeny bit, I have to admit that I’ve learned more in the last year than I have at any other age. I want to make the rest of my […]
A little over a month ago, I turned 25. A quarter-century! I know to most adults it sounds impossibly young. But to people my age, it represents the beginning of a new chapter of life. It seems to be the first birthday that brings people anxiety about their age. I’ll admit, the significance of it […]
I’ve had a lot of people question my unwavering dedication to working in the field of fashion. From wondering why I don’t just do “that stuff” on the side, to imploring me to use my own medical battles to help in the field of medicine instead, to just scoffing at my passion for something so […]
My mother is one of the most selfless, caring people I know. But there’s no argument – she’s not a sentimental lady. Our family nickname for her is “The Little General” because she runs a tight ship, even at five feet tall. That’s why when she sent us all an email with a very sentimental […]
