I think I want to start my first post in Dallas by saying…YA’LL, MY LIFE IS SO DIFFERENT NOW AND I LOVE IT.
These past few days have been CRAZY to say the least because my whole life has changed and I’m not complaining! I wish I had moved to Dallas sooner!!! I haven’t even explored the whole city yet and I’m already obsessed and can’t imagine living anywhere else. The part about this move that I haven’t talked about on the blog is the fact that I moved to Dallas without even visiting first (did so much research beforehand though and asked so many people about it and just knew that it would be a whole lot better than living in Rochester!) and even managed to secure the perfect apartment and just seeing it through pictures. I’m still not sure how the hell I got so lucky with this whole thing. I have never taken a risk as big as this one in my life and I’m just so glad it was worth it in the end. It’s been 4 days since I’ve moved here but I still can’t believe this is my new home!
These past couple of days have been spent pretty much neglecting my social media and trying to get settled in and “adulting” which is so much harder and more expensive than it looks. By far, the most expensive thing I bought is a brand new car! It’s a 2017 Nissan Sentra which is a million times better than my old 2008 car that was always in the repair shop. The best part about moving is that everything feels so new and you also get a chance to start fresh and buy new things! Overall, I love my new life and it’s given me such a fresh perspective on things. Rochester always made me feel limited but here, there’s so many possibilities and I have such a good feeling about things.
Before I left Rochester, I shot this look and this top is perfect for warm fall days. I actually got it on sale (I can never afford Self-Portrait for full price haha) and it’s also available in white which is just as pretty. I can’t wait to shoot new fall looks here in Dallas! Stay tuned.
Thanks for reading,
