I will forever be grateful that a naive, ignorant, bored Indiana girl decided to give this whole blogging thing a try eight years ago. I will never forget wandering to our desktop computer sitting atop an old desk in our guest bedroom turned office turned guest bedroom and curiously typing www.blogspot.com into my web browser…

This whole outfit is included in the @nordstrom Anniversary Sale, and I’m showing how I bring three other fall trends like this into my everyday looks on the blog! #ad #nordstrom #nsale @shopstyle [link in bio]](http://scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com/vp/e6ee8404cea18fbf29a1ab6c1811c2cc/5DE10A97/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/c0.107.853.853/s640x640/67390581_206060877045660_5562828745572222602_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com "Crushin’ on camo!

![What a week 💐 Work was c-r-a-z-y, I turned another year older [oh hey 3️⃣3️⃣], I celebrated with cocktails, I slept, I read [When Life Hands You Lululemons and yes, I totally recommend] and I was filmed for an interview sometime in between all of that. The final question of the interview was “what do you want to leave behind as your legacy?” The question was intended to be from a business perspective but the first thing that came to my mind were my precious little nieces and nephews and what I want those kids to remember me as and what I hope to instill in their lives. Needless to say, my eyes immediately filled with tears and I sat there silent not wanting to answer because I knew the floodgates would open. It was a question that struck me and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since. As for work? I truly hope that because of this space, a woman [or three] spirit has felt lighter after visiting LIY, that I can help curate a community that allows individuals to not feel alone and that when you have a date night, a high school reunion or a Saturday soccer game to attend that we played a small part in helping you feel confident and beautiful in whatever it is you are wearing. Thank you for sharing a part of your day with LIY and for following along, I’m grateful, that’s all ❤️](http://scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com/vp/9b71784d4cccef937c09ac2c7a5210f7/5DCA1036/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/c0.175.1405.1405a/s640x640/67124526_2321749631265173_1512477418156876123_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com "What a week 💐 Work was c-r-a-z-y, I turned another year older [oh hey 3️⃣3️⃣], I celebrated with cocktails, I slept, I read [When Life Hands You Lululemons and yes, I totally recommend] and I was filmed for an interview sometime in between all of that.
