Thank You, Internet

I wanted to say a quick "thank you" to the internet today, and primarily to the style blogging community out there.

Overall, I have been AMAZED at the kindness, love, and support that flows through the style blogosphere; I have met some truly lovely women whom I greatly admire, and I completely enjoy making those connections. We all know that the internet (and, obviously the world), is full of not-so-nice people, but what this community has taught me is that it is even more full of kind, creative, and loving people, from whom I draw endless inspiration and support.

So, that's all to say a great big "thank you" to those of you who follow, comment, or just stop by for .01 seconds, and to those of you who put yourselves out there on your blogs every day and face the big scary Internet with humor and grace. You all inspire me to do it, too.

Hope your week is going well, and thanks, as always, for stopping by. :)

I wore this while Christmas/Hanukkah shopping over the weekend (4 gifts down, 4 to go!), and for a very specific reason. These boots are really hard to take on and off, ever since the pieces of leather that used to make the zippers easy to pull up and down fell off. Now, they're really hard to unzip, and thus (I hoped) would discourage me from trying on clothes for myself. Seriously, this was my thought process.

It kind of worked. I got lots of shopping for other people done, and only bought a shirt for myself because my mother made me. It's her fault. I swear. :)

Hope you all had a great weekend!
