Remember When?

January is the month for looking forward, but it’s also the best month to reflect. It’s Designer Showcase’s 15 year anniversary, and I can’t believe it. I have so many fond memories as a blogger. Fashion has changed so drastically. Remember when we had to put on multiple pieces? Remember when our outfits weren’t as shiny as the ads? Lol, I’m loving the technology and showcases that let designers shine. Happy anniversary Designer Showcase! ❤️

You left me no choice but to stay here forever…

Friends break up, friends get married
Strangers get born, strangers get buried
Trends change, rumors fly through new skies
But I’m right where you left me
Matches burn after the other
Pages turn and stick to each other
Wages earned and lessons learned
But I’m right where you left me

Yes, I use songs for inspiration, but I’m really posting because Designer Showcase is back with its February round! I immediately fell in love with Sasha Design’s Michelle. It comes with a jacket, top, and jeans. As spring approaches, it’s time to start dressing in layers! Need a ride to Designer Showcase? Click here!

Lyrics: Right Where You Left Me by Taylor Swift

Best believe I’m still bejeweled

Sadness became my whole sky
But some guy said my aura’s moonstone
Just ’cause he was high
And we’re dancin’ all night
And you can try to change my mind
But you might have to wait in line
What’s a girl gonna do?
A diamond’s gotta shine

But if it’s all the same to you

So we could call it even
You could call me babe for the weekend
‘Tis the damn season

Who knows, if I never showed up, what could’ve been
There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen
I had a marvelous time ruining everything

I’ll get lost on purpose

I only see daylight

I wanna be defined by the things that I love
Not the things I hate
Not the things that I’m afraid of, I’m afraid of
Not the things that haunt me in the middle of the night
I just think that
You are what you love

Taylor Swift

More often than not, a song will come on that I need to hear. Whether I choose to embrace it is a matter of where I am at the moment. Am I moody? Nah, don’t need to hear it. Am I holding on to something I almost let go? Yes, please give me more. All I can say is it’s brighter now.

The Bolter

Started with a kiss
“Oh, we must stop meeting like this”
But it always ends up with a Town Car speeding
Out the drive one evening
Ended with the slam of a door
Then he’ll call her a whore
Wish he wouldn’t be sore
But as she was leaving
It felt like breathing

All her fuckin’ lives
Flashed before her eyes
It feels like the time
She fell through the ice
Then came out alive

He was a cad, wanted her bad
Just like any good trophy hunter
And she likes the way it tastes
Taming a bear, making him care
Watching him jump then pulling him under
And at first blush, this is fate
When it’s all roses, portrait poses
Central Park Lake in tiny rowboats
What a charming Saturday
That’s when she sees the littlest leaks
Down in the floorboards
And she just knows
She must bolt
