Each week I take it as a new start and I always plan to be better than the week before. This helps me with consistency as well as reaching my goals. I’m actually always excited to bring new content and create with my favorite photographer/ husband @bysirarthur (You can see a bit of BTS on my insta story) I wasn’t as consistent but instead of beating myself up I push myself to take it day by day and step by step especially with my new content. This year I’m looking forward to also bringing my blog back and just have an overall more creative outlook on everything. What do you do to maintain consistency? __ D E T A I L S Denim Shirt: @levis Hair: @nadulahair two 18 inch, two 20 inch bundles with a 16 inch closure, dyed by @jsamaiye (video will be up on my YouTube on Wednesday!)
What are your favorite pieces of content from me and what do you hope to see more of in 2019? __ I’ve always been the type of content creator who loves building a sense of community. Hearing from my audience and being able to actually interact has been one thing I’ve missed more from posting. This year I’m more determined than ever to bring more beauty content but with a bit of lifestyle too. I’m uploading my first inspiratorial of the year tommorrow on instagram (at 7pm est) and on YouTube and I’m just really excited for you guys to see! I hope everyone is having an amazing day so far 🤗🤗

As I reflect over this past year I realize you guys haven’t seen as much of me as it was in the beginning of the year. There are times that you need to prioritize yourself over everything, It’s been an amazing year to be honest, it’s been mind blowing. Through this all I’ve realized one crucial thing, I’m the painter of my page and whatever I paint is what people will see. What people didn’t see however, was when things went wrong, when I had sleepless nights over wedding planning or when I cried for no apparent reason at all aside from stress. In all that though I came out strong, stronger than I have ever been in all my years. Why? There’s only one quote I can use to explain why “It is not in the still calm of life, or the repose of a pacific station, that great characters are formed. The habits of a vigorous mind are formed in contending with difficulties. -Abigail Adams In 2019, think beyond, seek more and enjoy things as they come. Take a break when you need to, the internet will always be here, Enjoy your family, learn new things and always remember love is the answer to everything. Here’s to an even better year to come!🍾🎇
I truly miss summer but I'm so excited about this holiday season.
