So you're going through a style revolution...

So you're going through a style revolution, so am I...
I just realized that every new article of clothing I buy or even just lust after is different than what I have ever liked.
I just realized that my old wardrobe consisted mostly of shirts left over from 8th grade.
I just realized that even though I own 92 pairs of shoes I only wear about 3 of them.
I just realized that I keep looking up ways to change my hair.
I just realized I stopped buying drugstore makeup and started splurging on things like Bare Minerals and Urban Decay's Naked 3 Palate.
I went in for a trim and ended up taking off 5 more inches.
I started hoarding every trendy nail polish color.
I started online shopping from stores I have never even set foot in.

I am sick of my routine.

So why not change it up?
Why not chop off your hair?
Why not change your wardrobe?
Why not hoard nail polish?
Why not donate more than half of your wardrobe to the DI?
Why not splurge a little every now and then?

So I did.

A Very Special Day

Today is a very special day.  Today my baby brother turns 16. Crazy right! 16 years ago when we lived in California my parents told me and my sister Lauren that we were going to have a new sibling. They asked us wether we wanted a brother or another sister.  My sister answered right away that she wanted a brother. I on the other hand wanted a sister. Much to my dismay it was a brother.  I never would have thought that 16 years later he would be my best friend, my partner in crime, my star-wars-watching buddy, my lunch going friend, my cohort in surprising my mother, and my favorite sunday drive buddy.  I am sure it is not easy being my brother but he sure does a great job! Who knew a 16 year old could be so amazing.

Happy birthday to that stud in the middle.
