I’m just now realizing that Freshmen Fashion is now over 1 year old. It is crazy to think that a year has passed. I have learned so much since starting this blog and it has introduced me to some awesome things and people. The fashion blogging community is very supportive of all of it’s members and I am happy to be one of those members.

It’s amazing how much can happen in a single year. I can’t believe that I will never be a high school freshman ever again. It's insane! Freshmen Fashion has been a place for me to talk about all of the things that I love and to share them with people who love them just as much as I do. I started this blog last summer to document my Freshmen year in fashion and to intermix my two greatest loves fashion and writing. I set out to showcase attainable fashion that was chic and affordable. I truly hope that my readers find inspiration from Freshmen Fashion. 

I want  to say thank you to everyone who has visited Freshmen Fashion, read a post, left a comment, and followed. I love reading your feedback. It makes me feel great to think that people appreciate the things that I write about. 

Personally, I believe that I have grown as a writer since my very first post written all the way back on June 12, 2012. I can only hope to better my writing and fashion knowledge in the future through this blog.

Thank you to everyone that has supported me over this past year. I greatly appreciate it. 

I hope that Freshmen Fashion will introduce to me to even more amazing blogs, people, and opportunities over the next year.

Thank you so much,

BL

Girls' Day

Today I had a fun day out with my bestfriend. We went to the salon for a little bff time and to get our nails done for the concert we're going to on Saturday. My friend chose bright purple polish while I picked this reddish/pinkish color with cheetah accents.

Adventures in Target

Sunglasses Forever21, Scarf  (similar) Forever 21, Jacket TJ Maxx, Hat Target 

There's just something about this kooky floral hat. I found this lovely "treasure" at Target while I was on the hunt for a black and white Red Sox snapback. This one sort of reminds me of Hawaiian shirt. Anyways... still on a mission to find that Red Sox hat.

Quote of the Week

“Fashion is not necessarily about labels. It’s not about brands. It’s about something else that comes from within you.” —Ralph Lauren

I love this quote. It is completely true. You could be wearing the most exquisite million dollar outfit but if you have a frown on your face and a horrible attitude then people are going to be less likely to want to get to know who you are. Don't get me wrong I love fashion and I really appreciate designer labels but you don't need overly expensive things to be "fashion-forward". Fashion shouldn't be about who's outfit cost the most money. It should be about showing the world your personality without having to say a single word. Basically what I'm trying to get across here is that having a love for fashion is wonderful but always make sure that you are true to yourself.
