Living in a world of content creators can be really intimidating sometimes. I barely have followers compared to many, so I often ask myself, am I being realistic? Can this dream be realized in a sea of bloggers? This dream I have to become an influencer and entrepreneur. I believe in myself, so I must believe that it can. Although I am working on these things, I have yet to attain my goals. There is so much work to do that I get overwhelmed at times. Nothing in life is certain; but we have to fight for the belief in ourselves and what we can achieve because everyday society reminds us otherwise. I am believer! Are you?!

This look is something I created on a whim. I wasn't sure what to wear one day to an event so I threw this on. The dress is a little shorter than I'd normally wear, however, I loved it so much, especially with the dramatic sleeves. It reminds me of the drama during the Victorian era. This dress is old. I actually don't recall which store I bought it from. The shoes have fur and are something I have always loved but never purchased because I felt it wasn't right. However, a newer brand that I have come to adore called Brother Vellies, though pricey, is a sustainable slow fashion brand that is committed to the cause. I have stocked their site and I finally saved up for a pair of the Dhara sandals. I LOVE them! These babies will be in my closet for years. I don't even care when this is no longer a trend, I'm still wearing them!
