Hello there pretty pretty people. I’ve been thinking over the last few days about how to write my feelings on blogging right now, but to be honest – I am still very much in the air. A little too cryptic? Probably. But I’ll try to put it out there without putting too much of my little heart on the line.
I had come to a part of my life where I felt like I had everything planned out. In life, there are planners those who go with the flow – and I’ve always been a planner. Once I figured out what I wanted in life, I went for it like nothing else in the whole world mattered. And once I got it, I was happy – and checked one more wonderful thing on my little made up ‘life list’ that I loved so well. But as we all know, sometimes life doesn’t go as planned, and sometimes it crushes you like a ton of bricks. The last few days have felt like a lot of the latter, and the joy of outfit posts, product round ups, and my favorite beauty products just don’t seem to seem as important as those metaphorical bricks that are currently crushing me. There’s a time and a place (and an importance, really) about the creative escape of my blog – but taking some time away to figure out the things that truly matter might be the only way to feel better – and hopefully make things better too.
And because I’m one of the luckiest ladies in the world, I have friends and family who are willing to help a sister out when she needs it most. I’ve already got an amazing list of coffee and margarita dates to squeeze in this week, because true friends know that double fisting caffeine and tequila is the only way to live. And, I have the most kick-ass intern of all interns who’s graciously taking over the rest of the week to share her favorite back to school goodies and fictional style. So please, stick around! She’s one amazing designer, creative and all around wonderful lady – and you’ll be excited to see the world through her very stylish eyes.
I'm sorry to hear things aren't going well right now. Thinking of you.
Oh Miss Maya, I'm sending all the positive vibes I can muster your way. You know where to find me if you want to chat 🙂
Just remember this is just ONE season of your life- sometimes remembering that rough times are temporary is all I need to push through.
Sending you tons of love and big hugs sweet friend. If there’s anything I can do, just let me know. xx
Oh! I know the feeling! Take some time for yourself! Remember, hard times are good in the long run. They suck during, but make us stronger in the end.
Sending you lots of love and hugs, lady! Hope everything is okay – take all the time in the world that you need for yourself because YOU are the most important. xo
Thinking of you my love–whatever it is you're going through, know we're all here and you'll coming out stronger and happier on the other end. Lots of love!
I feel you, girl- as a fellow planner-in-arms and someone who often takes on too much, I feel you. Take the time you need to recharge- thinking of you! 🙂

Girl. If I wasn't crying so much I would say I'll come to Chicago but we would both just cry a lot then.
Oh, I'm so sorry, Maya. It's so great you're taking the time to hang out with your friends and family, because caffeine and tequila do cure a lot of woes. Hang in there, pretty lady:)
You are one of my favorite people and I just love you.
Isn’t That Charming.
