Over the years, I've been working on carefully refining my daily routines. Spontaneity definitely has its time and place, but I've found that I am pretty routine-oriented through and through. I need some sort of structure in my day-to-day life or else I find that inevitably various aspects of my health will be neglected. I'm finally at a[...]
Hi everyone! I wanted to take the time to officially introduce you to my new and much improved website! While you can still access my blog through the same links, I decided to switch up things behind the scenes. I always hate taking such a long time away from blogging as, once again, I have so much to say that I need to catch up on. Howe[...]
I was so thankful I got to have my dream photoshoot this summer for my senior pictures. I’d dreamed for the longest time about getting professional pictures in the city and really being thoughtful about my clothes and vision so that the aesthetic would match that of my blog brand. I’ve always loved photography, so getting any pictures[...]
I love finding new songs to put on repeat, and listening to my favorite songs is my most favorite way to relax and unwind. Music can be so powerful and comforting. I’ve shared some of my favorite Christian and inspirational songs on the blog before, like in this post here, and today I thought I’d share ten songs I’ve been enjoy[...]
As I write this, the sun is finally shining through my house, casting light off the solid dusting of snow we’ve had for this month. I’m already dreaming of warm days, and all this sunshine teases me into thinking we’re already there… With that said, it’s hard to believe the first month of the year is already over with! I mention[...]
When it comes to opening presents, I’m still a kid at heart. I remember on Christmas Eve this year, a few hours before supper, I asked my mom, “When are we eating presents?” I had meant to ask when we were eating, since we always open our presents after supper, but clearly my excitement got ahead of me. As the moment finally ca[...]
Ever since I was a young girl, I’ve had a fascination with fashion. You could definitely say it’s become more of a passion with age, but there was always that spark there. My mom has shown me a lot of pictures of me when I was a baby and toddler, and she always picked out the cutest outfits for me, so maybe that’s what instilled in[...]
I’ve always been attracted to the glitz and glam in life, along with pink, of course. Since sparkles are a key element in my personal style (as they are in my blog name, haha), I have made it my mission to incorporate as many sparkly fashion items into my wardrobe as possible. Unfortunately, this isn’t always easy to do, since sparkle[...]
I’ve noticed another trend, looking back on the various goals I’ve set for myself over the years. I’ve always been one to have big aspirations, and there’s nothing wrong with that, but I’ve also noticed how year after year, some of the things keep getting listed over and over as my goals. Maybe you can relate? It’s certainly n[...]
