Monthly Must Haves

Hey fellow fashionistas! Time for monthly must haves! At the end of each month, I will rave about my 10 favorite finds for the month! Hope you enjoy!!
1 & 2 (Hair favorites) 
I have stick straight hair, and I can not stand it. Even after I wake up, my hair just sits straight. There is never any volume or texture. I have tried a lot of products to make my hair more voluminous. They never seem to work, and if they do it's only for a small window of time. I recently got a haircut, and my stylist recommended these products. I was hesitant after trying so many things that did not work...... but I decided to give them a try. After a few days of using these products, I could instantly start to see more volume. I love them!! The one on the left is for your ends. It doesn't really add volume, but it is important to always keep your ends strong...... Split ends will have an effect on your volume. You can find this here
The texture and root lift spray, (adds volume:) you can find here
                                                           3. Penny Chic, by Shauna Miller. An amazing book on affordable fashion, closet cleaning, and (my favorite) finding your style tribe!!
4. Taylor Swift's 1989! This album is really fantastic! I especially LOVE Blank Space!! :)
5. THESE SHOES!! I have had a few pairs of Uggs over time.....but these are by far my favorites! I love how they look, and the comfort level is extreme! I pretty much wear these to school every day! #Obsession
6 & 7
These clogs are amazing! Sven Clogs has really high quality clogs, and they are so comfortable! I have to admit.... it took a little practice to take on the stairs at my school:) Going from lunch to gym in 3 minutes is not easy!! They also really stand out in a sea of Converse, Vans, and Jordans :)
The lap desk shown above is awesome. I have a generally smaller room, with no room for a desk. I actually prefer sitting in my cozy chair and doing homework on the lap desk. Here it is!
8. Essie's "The Perfect Cover Up"
I tend to paint my nails with lighter colors. I love peaches, pinks, and lavenders. I surprised myself when I picked this up at CVS. I decided to go for it, and I ended up loving the darker hue!! I will for sure look for more dark colors this fall!! 

9. Panera's Chocolate Chip Hot Chocolate!! 
Two words- Guilty Pleasure
10. History In High Heels
This blog is what got me interested in blogging. I love her posts and all her pictures!! Go check it out!!
Hope you enjoyed my October Must Haves!!!
XOXO, GG

what his words could not see

the problem with insecurities is they like to hide. they sit below the surface, waiting for something or someone to set them off. you yourself may not even know they're there. i knew mine was there, i just didn't want to admit it. i fed myself all the right literature, watched all the right videos, listened to all the right people who were telling me that what i was going through was normal, good, beautiful even. i consumed it until i told myself i believed it. but the problem was, i never did.  deep down, i didn't accept what was happening. i told myself it was temporary, i would lose it soon. at my very core, i believed that something was wrong with me. i rarely let others on to the fact that when i looked in the mirror i was deeply sad. growing up your whole life being skinny, no one ever tells you what to do when your body changes. when your external value is no longer based in your smallness. i couldn't reconcile what was happening to me. i could not understand or ...

Versatility In Your Wardrobe- Dresses

Image
Hey fellow fashionistas! A really important thing in anyone's wardrobe is versatility. I mean, you can't wear one item and never wear it again! Mixing and matching outfits is something fashionistas pride themselves on all around the world. I try my hardest to create a completely new look with all my clothes. The cool thing is, nobody will know if you wear the same shirt twice in the school week! You will accessorize and pair it totally different! I'm going to show you how to create the illusion that you own a lot of clothes, when the reality is.. you're just a master of outfit creating. Ok, there's a twist! A lot of people think of separates for mixing & matching, and they usually think of dresses as a one-time dressy outfit. Dresses can be made super casual! The looks created today will all include a dress! Don't be afraid to rock one to school or just running errands, these are super comfy and laid back! (1) Add a button down under one of your favori...
