Hi! My name is Liz

I really never thought I'd start a fashion blog, since I never really thought of myself as fashionable. I like dressing up in pretty things, sure, but my normal style is not necessarily what people expect from a 21 year old girl.

I spent almost all of middle and high school wearing jeans and t-shirts.
I didn't like my shoulders. I felt awkward wearing dresses. By the time I had graduated, I was sick of it! I just wanted to wear something exciting, and something I was comfortable in. So when I went away to college, I created a style over for myself.  It was no longer jeans and t-shirts for me, suddenly it was bow ties and blazers!

When I came back home, my manner of dress stayed much the same as it was at school. My style has broadened out over time, and I've started adding some feminine looks into my wardrobe. I wear dresses more now, and am comfortable showing off my shoulders. "Girly" things are fun!


I'm quite happy with the way I dress! Recently, though, I got it into my head that maybe it's time for a change. It all started with this feeling that nothing fit quite right. Not in the sense that everything is too big, or too small, but in  the sense that just nothing looked quite right. My first instinct was, of course, to post about it on Facebook.
Which led to a fun chain of comments about what I should do to solve this problem. 
I had a good laugh thinking of me, someone who looks awkward wearing leather jackets, dressing in punk or grunge fashion. Then I got an idea.
Which is how I got to where I am now, talking to you all (thanks to the suggestion of a friend who suggested I blog about my experience)

I've had fun in my stylistic journey so far, and I'm excited and nervous to see where this stylistic experiment will take me. Hopefully it is fun and enlightening for all of us.
