DIY Peek-a-boo Pleated Skirt

A few months ago, I was going through so much in my personal life. I was trying to juggle my family, grad school, a full time job, my clothing line,  my YouTube channel, and my blog. I was extremely overwhelmed and had to drop a few things off my list, so I thought long and hard about that decision.  My blog and YouTube Channel was deleted from my life. Well, at least I thought it was.  Sometimes I feel like "Why can't I do it all?!"  Today, I'm learning to balance it all without getting too overwhelmed. I've learned to balance and organize my schedule so that my family gets a majority of my time and whatever time I have left, I work on what I want.

As a mom of two with a stomach full of stretch marks, I normally do not wear crop tops, but in my dreams, I'd like to think that I can actually wear one.  Today, I am embracing my curves and all of the not so perfect flaws of the mommy life.

For now, I am extremely inspired and so excited to be back on my blog. I've missed it so very much. It seems like I've been gone for forever.  The street style and clothing pieces that I've seen on my favorite blogger has me like "Wait! I can make that!" or "Hold up! I want to make that!"  I can and I will Dammit!  So here I am; fully inspired. My tank is full and I'm excited to mingle with you (my blogger friends) and meet some new ones.  Comment below and let me know what inspires you.
