I lose myself

You know how sometimes you get so wrapped up in a book and you lose track of time? Here lately I've been doing just that, losing myself. I feel like I've lost track of time, I've lost the person I want to become, I've lost the main reason I want to blog.

I just keep going, I want to go back to the person I was-becoming about 6 months ago. That girl knew exactly what she wanted, knew exactly what she wanted to blog about, knew exactly what to say at the right time. I want her back, desperately. If I could find that confident beautiful girl again, life would be complete. The girl who knows how to dress, make a statement, make everyone think twice. Where is she? 

She's buried deep inside of me inching to come out again, inching to see the light of day again. I want her back so bad, so very bad. 

I'm currently in this place in my life where i can't seem to make up my mind about what needs to be done with the rest of my life. I want to change every aspect of my life, as in hair color, the way I dress, what I talk about, the people I talk too. I want change.
I'm considering doing a lot of things different in the up coming months. 
First I'll start with my hair

 

              I've always wanted to have platinum blonde hair. But I will settle for highlights, in this life time.  this is the first and easiest change I will make.                  The next will probably be my clothing, I want to dress more my age rather than a 19yr, but believe it or not, my clothing has changed a lot over the past year. So it won't be that big of a change, and I'll still do my style posts. Which leads me to my next change, I want to start photographing my style. I always get compliments on a piece of clothing I'm wearing. I need to document these outfits so I don't post about it twice.    Over all- I need change in my life, and I think I'm starting in the right place. lets see if this can keep going.  Stay positive. Stay Classy.   

It's here! It's finally here!!!

Like every other woman, I have been anticipating seeing this trailer- guess what! It's finally here!    I loved the books and it's now finally coming to life!    http://www.fiftyshadesofgreymovie-intl.com/uk/
Have a beautiful Thirsty Thursday!  

I know...

You guys missed me! I'll be back tomorrow with a new post and updates on how my vacation went! I can't wait to tell you all about it! Until then enjoy this lovely photo of me!

Why I love having curly hair

I remember when I was younger I disliked having curly hair, I would do everything to make it straight or pull it back so I wouldn't have to deal with it. People would say, "Carson your hair is beautiful,  you should let it do its natural curl" So one day I let my hair down (literally) and curled it. I got so many compliments and asked why I never wore it like that.

 The reason was because it was so long, and I would get hot-even in the dead of winter I would get blazing hot. Now that I'm older, I love love having long curly hair. I can do anything with it! Wear it up, wear it down, wear it half up and half down, there's an endless amount of things I can do with it! 

I recently came across a hair product that I was a little skeptical about. I saw it in Kroger one night and kept coming back to it every time I went in. 

It's a little pricy for me, but finally when I went in the other day it was on sale! I'm all about sales, like I could live off the sale rack at clothing stores! 

It's called:

This texurizing spray has changed my life! I've been using almost every single day since I bought it! If you have super curly hair like mine, then this is for you! I bought this at Kroger, but you can basically buy it anywhere, where hair products are sold like: Ulta, Urban Outfitters, Drugstore.com and many other places. The cheapest place I have found online to buy this, is: Wal-mart (I'm surprised!) Buy here or if you're an Ulta member, you get the discount so you can buy yours Here. If you shop at UO then you can buy yours Here.

 I believe this will become a staple in my hair basket from now on, I can't believe I've gone so long without it! Thank you Ashley for convincing me to buy this! 

 

 I'm also going to do a post on this shirt and necklace later! 

Remember..

Stay Classy!

#Packing

I dislike packing. 

Now that I've got that outta my system we can move on. 

 I have plenty of  "go to outfits" that it's not a problem, I just don't know how many to bring. 

I wish it was like the movies, where you can grab everything shove it in the suite case and be out the door.  But noooo, you have to fold everything neatly make sure it all fits and then you can go...

I'm pretty good with folding and making it all neat and pretty, but putting everything back, that's a whole other ball game. 

I need tips on how to pack, I'm going on a weekend getaway and have a bad habit of taking everything including the kitchen sink.  I don't always use everything I bring- trying to minimize it to the basics.  
 So far this is what I have

Agatha Christie is not going with me. 
She gets to stay home and guard the house!
I've got: 5 tops, 5 pairs of shorts, 2 dresses, and 2 skirts. 
I'm probably not going to wear all of them, but I've gotta have options! 

What am I forgetting? Besides the essential lady things. 


Remember, 
Stay Classy!

Bamboo and Orange.

    This outfit is darling to say the least! I was overly excited to share this with you guys.

Unfortunately, I can not find any links to the clothing I'm wearing. My top came from the boutique I work at, soo comfortable!

 I got the shorts at Fabrik back in March, they're orange with gold detailed zippers. I love love these things, they're so comfortable and go with just about anything! 

 My shoes I've had for years, they are also gold with cute flowers on the top! Best 15$ I've ever spent on a pair of shoes! 

My earrings are simple orange/pink balls. 

I told you I had a surprise in store for you guys! 

Have a fantastic Thursday and remember

Stay Classy!

4th of July+ Krispy Kreme+late nights

As we all know this weekend was 4th of July weekend, where you get dressed up in your red, white and blue outfits, enjoy fireworks, eat fantastic food and hang out with family. 

Thursday 

I started my weekend early! I had the entire week off and did absolutely nothing, of course I did the usual clean up and washed clothing. Then this happened!

I had lunch with my sister! I never get to see her, so this was an opportunity I could pass up.

Granted I didn't get to see her long, seeing we had a quick bite then she had to get back to work, which is about an hour-two hours away :(

 When we are able to see each other we make time. :) 

Friday 4th of July! 

Started off as a quite sleepy day for all of us here, Everyone had worked and played the night before (except for me, I just played). Did a few things around the house then slept most of the day way, for some reason I was tired! Around 8pm I got a call from one of my favorite girls asking me if I wanted to go to dinner with her! Of course I said YES! 

My outfit for that night consisted of this awesome shirt I picked up at work!

 You can get yours (Here) 

These are the most comfortable shirts you will ever own! 

That night ended with fireworks in my backyard, They were shooting them off in the distance so I didn't have to leave the comfort of my own home. :) 

Perks of living in the country!

 Saturday

Was slow and filled with cleaning, arguing and nothing fun. I once again slept most of the day away, Don't ask why I've been so tired of late. I can't seem to figure it out. If anyone else has been feeling like this please tell me, because nothing I do seems to wake me up, All I want to do is sleep. 

That night I went to dinner, had the best wings ever! and talked a little about life. 

My night then got a lot better! With this beautiful outfit

Pearl earrings. Gold ring. Simple black dress. and this awesome jean vest that I love! 

I was taken here at 11 o'clock at night!

The fat kid inside of me was jumping for joy, I don't eat doughnuts often but when I do, I come here! unfortunately the lobby was closed. :( But their drive thru is open 24 hours! woohoo!! My fat kid got even more excited! we got a dozen glazed doughnuts! 

 Then we finally got home around midnight, which is unusual for us, I never stay out that late anymore. I'm becoming more and more of a night owl but still like to be home at a reasonable hour, I would rather be at home reading on a Saturday night then out prowling the town.

 That was my beautiful weekend!

What did you do on this lovely relaxing weekend?! 

Stay Classy-

But it's only Wednesday! Positive Wednesday! 

Be Happy!

Fall in love..

With yourself and everyone else around you. 

I often don't take into consideration the people that love me for me, and will/have stood by my side though out all the crazy things I've done. I often don't see how could anyone stand to watch me destroy myself and then put me back together, it's an on going war inside of myself.  I often don't see how anyone could let me do whatever it is I want to do, No one has ever stopped me from driving to fast, going on a day trip to Atlanta (one of the dumbest things I've ever done), or eating to much chocolate. I realize these people have stayed here for a reason, because they love me, they think the world of me and know I can/will do better. It might taken me a while to get into college and find my footing, but I'm getting there, one step at a time. Nothing comes to those who wait << That statement is very true. I waited for an opportunity to come to me, Yes, one did but that didn't last very long. Soon after I had to go out and find what I was looking for, find that something that made ME happy, That made me want to strive for more. I'm striving for more in my life, I'm striving to survive on what I can for the time being, but in the end I want to live a rich and healthy life (rich- as in happy and relaxing) being rich would be nice, but not just yet. haha. 

My dad used to tell me, "Live everyday for yourself, no one else, and live a little for me." 

That's exactly what I've done, everyday is for me and a little more for him. 

(This all came flowing from my mind this morning.) 

Stay Classy-
