My FAVES so far..

Hello loves! 
I hope everyone has had a great March and is ready for April! I thought about posting a joke and then realized I'm horrible pranks so decided to keep it real. 
I have come up with some sources to those awesome new twists to these classic 70's styles. There's nothing I love more than a bold print and a wide leg; the 70's revival is in full effect! Here are some great styles that will have you stylin' anywhere you go and wont make a crucial ding in that spring budget!



 The Palazzo Pant has been emerging for the last few years but were semi-difficult to come buy. The hunt is over! This pant trend has caught on and you can now find this style in almost any of the stores you visit online or locally. Check these pants out at Target!
 One of my absolute favorite pieces has never gone out of style, the Jumper. I have a cute flutter sleeve and flirty print plays on the harmonious black and white that has taken over the Spring's typical take on  bright and floral prints.







Jean Jackets have to be in each and every closet, men and women benefit to this essential. Whether you want to dress down a flirty dress or your destination is a music festival, a jean jacket is the perfect layer.


 
 Platform sandals  are a 70's staple and any closet lacking basket weave platform sandals will be lusting after this hot new take on a classic! Don't be the last to find out that this shoe is the most versatile this season. You can pair this shoe with most, if not all, of the trends this spring!

Welcome MARCH! I LOVE this month. We have finally reached the first quarter of the year. Have you reached any of your goals yet? I'm getting there. Massive changes are happening and looking forward into the unknown is very scary & empowering.  Everyone should face some sort of adventure at least once in their lives. What adventure do you crave? What's holding you back? 
It could be simple and you're making it complicated. I'll give you some advice my mom gave me. "Be Selfish"! It might seem like a small truism but digest the concept. Open your mind to the universe and allow yourself success. It's never too late to stand up for yourself and make a change! Listen to that music that makes you feel powerful or watch Enough, with Jenny from the block, and walk with confidence. Too often we allow others to put us on their paths to success, don't allow your dreams to diminish for someone else to prosper. Recently I took a look in the mirror and decided that I wanted more. Not just money but experience and interaction, I crave living.
This past year has been a massive lesson. I am learning how to walk away from my current plight to create my own opportunities. It's important to make goals and the necessary changes to reach them. I began to read old journals and random logs that I have aimlessly placed amongst my things over the last year and where I wanted to be isn't where my path was taking me. Somewhere along this journey I lost my way, and that's not a bad thing. We can all learn some things about ourselves and others when we take these detours in life. There have been times that I think the timing has been off or that I spent too much time thinking or working towards the wrong thing and thinking that way is what kept me on that detour. I am exactly where and when I should be. Trust that the universe is going to give back. Now, make sure you are putting in the work and dedication. Goal reaching requires commitment and tenacity, attack these goals. It's liberating, this act of seizing my potential. Each day I wake up the purpose of my day means more because I am serving my own dream. This be selfish mantra is one that you have to work at and be serious about. Put post-it notes on mirrors, in your planner, in the car, at work on your desk and on the cabinets in the kitchen.  
So I challenge you to wake up with purpose and develop a tight grip on your dream- make it happen. You have one go at life and you need to make this one great. This can all sound cliche or it can be motivational. Choose your perception and take charge. If you're wondering why I chose that picture it is because that's the look of "epiphany". Moments after I decided a shift in my universe is necessary, #kcco !
