Grand-mère Approved

I'm sure your wondering if you're at the right site. Yes, yes you are! I'm going through some changes, as all people do when they turn 25 and question EVERYTHING, I really want to move blogging full time and now that I'm starting to fully understand my style I decided that it was less AVANT GARDE more....granny. This isn't really news to me, more affirmation of something I always knew. Even my grandfather called me grand-mere growing up...

Well she ain't what she used to be....

I want to bring in more lifestyle as well, that I used to have more in my old blog. I want things to be clean, simple, and of course vintage! I'm embracing my old lady style, I'm embracing that whenever I go out women 70+ always give me compliments. I'm embracing my weirdness, in pastels and loafers....

SO UPDATE YOUR LINKS, I would from now on like to be known as "grand-mere approved" and not "avant blargh" But for the sake of NOT LOSING ALL MY WORK, LINKS, FOLLOWERS, SHOUT OUTS, I'm keeping the domain...! And just in case in a few weeks I decide to switch back...heh heh..I can sometimes be more wishy washy than Charlie Brown.

Stay Tuned!

born this weird

Well its official guys...im a quarter of a century years old. It feels good to be 25...i feel more sure in my age, I feel like I'm taking control of my life and no longer focusing on being a people pleaser, but making myself happy. I know the phrase is going around "you couldn't pay me to be in my 20s anymore." but honestly I'm loving every moment and grateful to just be alive to experience new things and share them with you.

And is it any surprise that fashion week has kicked off on my birthday? Of course not, they did it for me ;) Thanks for hanging out guys and supporting me on this journey

hugs + kisses

Now that I am a post grad, I can relate to all the signature post grad films, reality bites...kicking and screaming, you know all the classics where the protagonists are thrown out into the real world, cold and confused. Is that normal, to feel this strange after college? I literally believed that my stress levels will go down since homework is OVER, but I just feel more overwhelmed.

Nothing like a few 90s movies to cheer you up. I was at first hesitant to 90s style, feeling like it was private to me, not to be shared and highlighted like awesome 80s fashion. But I'm starting to realize that the 90s are 20 years ago...TIME FLIES PEOPLE, I remember every year of the 90s vividly, I'm a child of the 90s born in the 80s. Its time to make up some of those fashion faux paus I made in junior high lol! Plus I can finally dress like my brother and his brat pack of gen x friends. I mean they were so Janeane Garofalo, its ridic. So get ready of summer of long dresses, round glasses, and curly hair of course. I can't wait to get my hair to scary spice portions...At the end of the day, expect me to still look like Elaine...lawls...

Oh btw, HOW AWESOME IS THAT PURSE??? Its sooo stevie nicks right???
