Starting New

Hey everybody. I think it's pretty clear that My Everyday Runway has not been at the top of my priorities in the past year. I want to say a few things about where my head has been at, and what the future of this blog holds. So, if you're interested keep on reading.
It's really hard for me to describe the year of 2017 as a whole. There were so many crazy good moments I never dreamed would happen (Hawaii, NYC, transferring to my dream school) but there were also some very hard moments where my anxiety really took over (the beginning of the school year wowza). It was the year that I even realized I had a real form of anxiety. In past years, I had pushed it off and took it for me just being a worrier. It hit me hard in some moments, and I had felt broken for the first time in my life. 
But now, here we are in 2018. I am in a better place, but still nowhere near close to the person I ultimately want to be. I am working everyday to strengthen my faith, and my relationship with family and true friends. 
I love my blog, and just thinking about the person I was when I started it (and my outfits oh my gosh!!) makes me giggle and look back with a fond remembrance. 
I am here to restart My Everyday Runway, but in a new and much more personal way. I will still include fashion of course, but I am aiming to bring more personal stories, advice, trip recaps, and hopefully some faith-related content. I have no idea how often I will post, but let's just hope it's more than last year :) 
xx, gracie

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...
