My favorite part of Denver is, by far, the Highlands. I absolutely LOVE the vibe of the neighborhood and the bustling of all the bars and restaurants. Plus, it seems so diverse (at least to a person who lives in the middle of suburbia). There are restaurants you wouldn’t typically see in my town: Ceviche, Tapas, etc.
I love going bold when I head downtown. Bright colors, and interesting patterns are my go-to choices for what to wear out.
Here are the elements:
{Skirt: Forever 21} {Clutch: Express}
{ Santa Fe Sunset Bracelet: Jewelmint} {Pearl Bracelet: Art of the Flower} {Watch: ?}
I snuck in a little bit of red. {Sandals: Charming Charlie}
Final Product: 
I LOVE this house. It’s so obnoxiously purple. How can you not love it…? {Shirt: Charming Charlie} {Boyfriend Sweater: Express}
And here is a little thought:
I’ve been sort of freaking out about getting older lately. I’m 23 now and in 3 months, I’ll be 24. I know this is totally irrational, because I am in the “prime” of my life. But I really do get a little worried about what I’m doing with my future. What will be my career, who will I end up with, and what about my health (I have back pain now, but what about in 20 years?)?? It’s really hard watching your friends get married (every time I see a new wedding album on FB, I get so annoyed) and being in a place where you realistically know you can’t have that. Not yet anyway.
So what’s a girl to do? What would you do? I have friends who sit down and make lists about their goals for the next 5 years and friends that just go along with the flow. What is the right way to handle getting older though, I wonder.
Regardless of where I end up, what I will do, and who I will marry, I am reminded of the Bible verse:
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own”
Matthew 6:34
This should be my new mantra. Seriously.
Thoughts?
