Happy Tuesday, everyone. Hop you are all doing well! November was a whirlwind and I can’t believe it is already December! Crazy. I have this week left of classes and then next week we have exams. Fortunately, I only have one exam, but 4 projects due. All of the work I’ve been doing will pay off when I coast through exam week.

Anyways, I know I have posted before about what all happened in the last year, but today is an important date to me. This time last year I was reaching the worst of it all and I remember it like it just happened. It’s strange because it feels so distant, but at the same time I feel like I could touch it. If any of you are going through hard times or depression whether you are 20 or 100 years old, I hope you know I am always here to talk. It sucks feeling like you are alone and no one really understands. We all have different circumstances and reasons, but they are all situations we can overcome. Trust me on that one. I hope anyone who feels this way can reach the point I am at someday and feel like they have gotten over that huge mountain they were once facing. It is an amazing feeling.

On a complete different note, I am in love with all things high waisted jeans because I can were all of my crop tops. HA. But really, it is quite nice to have these jeans around. I adore this cardigan. I basically wear it everyday. It’s so soft and nice and just perfect. These boots are insanely comfortable and easy to pair with other things. I really like the way this look turned out. Of course I have on all of my rings and a necklace. It wouldn’t be right if I didn’t! Last but not least, I love this top. Topshop knows what they’re doing.

Hope you guys are having a great December so far!
