I often have some issues with motivation due to my anxiety. It's tough to pep myself up every once in a while, so i try to keep myself in a positive environment. I decided to share some of the ways I keep myself motivated on my youtube channel. Hopefully you will check it out and maybe get some inspiration to try one of them yourself. I hope you all enjoy!

Well it's official! After what seems like forever, I have finally uploaded a video to my YouTube channel. I decided to share my office space with you all. I have included a link to my desk tour here for you to check out: My Desk Tour. Hopefully you enjoy it as much as I do!

If you are like me, then you love to travel! It doesn't matter where I go, I just love to be on the go. There are so many new places to explore in the world. So to me, that means I have a lot of places to go! If you think about it, there are tons of people in the world with lots of different cultures to learn from. Being able to watch and learn from others can really broaden the way you think.



I think my love of travel comes from two things. One is from back when I was a kid, I use to love when my brother and I would suit up and go explore the neighborhood. It didn't matter how many times we went out, I was always searching to find new things That "explorer" feeling stuck with me and now I want to search farther than just my neighborhood, I want to see the whole world! The other reason, is my dad. He used to work as a tractor trailer driver, so he traveled all the time. He used to tell my brother and I stories about all the places he had seen. It made him so happy that he got to see all those places. I decided I wanted that too, so I decided back then that I would see as many places as I could.

What I wear:

Since I like to travel, I decided to share one of my favorite travel looks with you.  I like to wear loose fitting tops most of the time or a tank top in the warmer months. I always carry a jacket with me in case it's chilly on the plane, train or at the airport. I usually go with a pair of leggings or stretchy jeans for my bottoms. That way I can bend and move around easily. On my feet, I wear sneakers, sandals, boots that are easy to slip on and off since each airport has different security rules and you never know when you will have to take your shoes off.


Inside my personal bag:

I chose a big personal bag so that I can fit all of the "essentials". This is a peek at what I take with me, I always remember to take an extra pair of underwear and socks in there as well, because you never know if you will get separated from your main luggage. Trust me, I have been through the "lost luggage" struggle more than once. It's best to be prepared in case that happens.





Inside my suitcase:

Like I mentioned before, I use a carry-on size and a large size suitcase. Most of the time I reach for my carry-on just because its easier and you don't have to worry about checking anything at the airport. This is a sample of what I would pack for a 5-7 day trip. I take pieces that I can mix and match together with each other. That way I cut down on suitcase clutter. If you keep the items limited then it will also cut down on the weight as well. It is up to you what you decide to pack just make sure to try everything on before you pack it up. You don't want to get there and realize your outfit wasn't what you had expected or worse, that it doesn't fit. Playing around with different looks can be fun, so I say get in that closet and figure it out early.


Hopefully you enjoyed my little bit of travel advice, and that it helps some of you. Bon Voyage!

I live in an area where there are a lot of military families. I always thought the uniforms they are wear were cool. I was searching through one of my local Goodwill stores (as I often do) and came across an awesome find. Someone had donated all of their former uniforms, so I was able to score an authentic jacket. Needless to say, I was super excited! I have been searching for the perfect one for months. It's the perfect length and size for me. So in honor of my new treasure, I thought I would throw out some styling tips for those of you who would like to create your own camo style.
