Concrete Jungle Where Dreams Are Made of

I am finallllllly here! I don't know why I was so frightened before, because all I feel now is absolute elation and excitement. I am so blessed to live out my dreams.

I love wearing these sequin shorts! I got so many compliments from random strangers because of them, which made me feel even more like a New Yorker, ahhhh. But walking so many miles in heels gave me horrible blisters, so I had to change out of my Jeffrey Campbell wedges and buy an oxford at H&M to ease the pain! First NYC lesson learned!

It was hardcore raining today, and it was surprisingly lovely. Everything feels so surreal. 

My momma and I at the Metropolitan Museum of Art! We went to the Schiaparelli and Prada exhibition...such fabulosity...

Your Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes

Last night, I crawled out my second story window onto my roof and watched the perseid meteor shower for hours. While I was just lying up there--with nothing but my iPod and the wondrous heavens  above--I wished for so many things on so many shooting stars. (This was actually on my bucket list, so I'm glad I got to cross it off!) It was so serene and lovely, I can hardly describe it with justice. While I was wishing after wishing after wishing, I've had a re-realization that I'm really greedy. I want so many things out of my life, it's unreal. I remember one of the things I used to wish for was to move to New York City, and I don't know how this happened, but that dream is coming true. But now, I am absolutely frightened down to my bones. I don't know why, because it's the first step to my ultimate dream--everything is going according to my plans. I guess I am not as brave as I led myself to believe.

Road Runner

My best and I went on a mini road trip on Route 66 to a restaurant called Pops today, and on our way back, we stumbled across the most secluded and pretty little lake in the middle of nowhere! Spontaneous photoshoots are the absolute best.

Bows and Pearls

This collar is one of my absolute favorite things to wear! I can literally pair it up with anything, so I actually have to stop myself from wearing it all the time. The neck bow is also something I am obsessed with, you'll see me often wearing it! This is the outfit I put on this morning before I had to change the top due to it being 105 degrees! It has been at least 100 degrees every day this summer and I am so sick of Oklahoma's weather. I hate hot weather. Anyway, sorry for the cruddy camera quality. I am REALLY bad at self photos with my Nikon, these were taken on my phone.

All We Want Is Flight

Had another photo shoot today. It was 113 degrees and absolute hell. Good thing my model doesn't look like she's dying in the photos, because we both certainly were!!!
