girly layers

Remember December when the temp was approximately 70 degrees? It really put a damper on my Christmas when I contemplated putting on shorts... Well the temperatures sure have cooled down since then. It was a nice 19 degrees when I woke up this Monday and it's stayed pretty chilly ever since then. With school starting back up I am almost thankful that all my classes happen to be in the Business Building this semester (less of a walk from central deck) because I don't have to bundle quite as much in these frigid winds. 








I am obsessed with this peplum sweater... I've easily worn this sweater more than anything else so far this winter. I love that it is so easy to throw on when it gets too chilly & let's be honest Georgia winters are all about playing with thin layers. 


Quick note on the picture above: I wish I could say that I was having some deep philosophical thought while this picture was being taken, but really I was thinking about how awkward I am. I really don't like taking pictures of myself, not because I think I look bad, but because I have always thought that taking pictures of yourself makes you a show off. Like, look at me—look how pretty I am, or how great my make up looks, or how my clothes are always on point, because to be honest that will never be me. 

I don't aim to be perfect but I aim to be confident in myself and I think that's what this picture beautifully portrays. I plan to keep putting my "un-photogenic (really though—you should see the rest of the photos)" self out there and get outside of my comfort zone because I think that is the best way to live life. And everyday I am getting more confident. So maybe I was thinking some deep philosophical thought after all.

How do you feel most confident?
