25 Years

Dress: Free People // Wedges: Schutz // Clutch: J.Crew

Today is my 25th birthday! It is hard to image that I am a quarter of a century old when I still feel like I am 10 most days. I never thought I would be married, own a home, or still running a blog at this point in my life – but I am couldn’t be more happy with where I am! I wanted to share the five most important things I have learned in 25 years (and this amazing black dress!). I have learned that family and friends are always the most important, everything that happens is always a part of a larger plan, don’t take things so personally from others, treat others better than you want to be treated, and it is impossible to please everyone. There is a story behind each of these lessons, but no one has time for that 🙂 I cannot wait to see what I learn in the next 25 years!

Outfit details: I am wearing a black linen dress by Free People, paired with raffia woven wedges from Schutz. This dress is perfect for summer heat and so easy to dress up or dress down! It was perfect to wear out to dinner and on a night with friends. I love the details on the sleeves and the buttons down the front of the midi length dress.
