Disclaimer:

     Sorry for my lack of blogging recently! However, while I was away, I just kind of sat back and observed. I kept up with all of the people I was following, read their posts, commented on some, but I started to see a similar trend within everyone. "I am a true PREPSTER!", "I lovelovelove pink and greeeeen!", Lilly, Jack Rogers, Tory, monogrammed, Sperrys, theses are all brands and things I really like, but do they truly define me? No. I am a student, daughter, girlfriend, sister. I am not Lilly Pulitzer, or Sperrys, or Croakies, or all of these things that supposedly make me "preppy'.
     It's just such an annoying word, "preppy". I love the crisp clean style that can be described as Preppy, but I would never catch myself using that word to describe myself? No. How embarrassing, and how stupid would I sound?
     Don't get me wrong, I'm really not trying to offend anyone. I just think that once anyone who labels themselves as such gets called out, they shouldn't be surprised.
     If you follow me because you think I am Preppy, well, thanks, I guess? Lol. I guess it's the look I'm going for, but I would love to think of myself as a funny, cute, and spunky girl :o)

I may have only been blogging for about a month now, but I definitely can see what you mean. I think it's easy to get caught up with certain labels, but at the same time, it's also important to remember what truly defines you, who you are to others. Thanks for having such a grounded perspective, it's really refreshing :)
