Who am I?

So I'm back from vacation and I'm ready to jump back into the blogging game. I had no wifi access and just enough cell reception to call my husband once a day and send a few texts. It was nice to step away for a week, and I can't wait to share my trip here, but I'm still getting everything back in order. I came home to 320 personal emails and another 160 work emails, so it's safe to say I'll be busy for the next few days. Luckily, I've spent the past week thinking about Back to Cool shopping that is likely to commence any day now that my vacation is over. Without further ado . . . 


All of you 90's kids out there will totally agree with me, we grew up in the best era. Hey Arnold, The Spice Girls, Beanie Babies, and Pokemon. The fashion was interesting to say the least, but I'm so excited that everything has come back. Up until 2 months ago, I despised Birkenstocks and denim jackets. I went so far as to make fun of one of my closest friends for having a pair of Birks and rejoicing when her Dachshunds tore them to bits. Now, I feel like a jackass because I see how ahead of the trend she was and always is (sorry Kate)!


Now I find myself with those orthopedic-looking sandals, a thumb ring, my husband's giant plaid button down, and shredded shorts that I can't wait to pair with a denim jacket. Who the hell am I?! I can tell you this, my brain is very susceptible to repetitive images. Continuously seeing birks and 90's revival pieces on every blogger ever and all of my Pinterest boards have me convinced that I too can pull off these styles. The jury is still out on whether or not I can, but I believe that with enough confidence and levity I can make it work.
