Tan Shredded Beanie from 2020AVE, Tan Sabine Wrap c/o Tart Collections, Ship Necklace c/o Awwdore, Red Printed Dress c/o The Editor's Market, Thigh High Socks from Forever 21, Black Booties from White Mountain

Today's look is inspired by treasure maps! This printed dress is from The Editor's Market and although the print is really just a bunch of intricate details in circles, I thought it looked a lot like a map (especially with this cute ship necklace from Awwdore, that looks like it's sailing on it!). To add some neutral tones to the outfit, I wore my tan beanie and tan wrap cardigan, and completed the look with black socks and shoes. I also decided to curl my hair since curled hair always looks great with a beanie, and I also felt like/really hoped it might have been the day for some particularly good news... because...

...... I GOT INTO PARSONS YESTERDAY!!!!!!!!!! As you probably know, Parsons has been my dream school for years now and to get in has made my entire year. I can't even tell you how unforgettable the feeling of pure and incredible happiness I experienced was, when I opened my mailbox (after staring out the window for what felt like decades, waiting for the mailman to arrive) and saw the giant envelope from Parsons! (Giant envelopes always mean good news). I am so thankful to all the teachers who have helped me make my portfolio what it is, and all my family and friends who have always supported me in whatever way they could. I don't know what my financial aid package is yet, but I think I will find out soon! I did mention my blog and the work I've done from it in my application, so I have reason to believe that it helped me in getting accepted! So a very heartfelt and grateful thank you to everyone who reads my blog and has offered me words of support. You guys are the best.
