I recently watched a video by fellow Virginian YouTuber Kaleb McAfee about her experience with quitting social media for 30 days (check it out here!). She mentioned her feeling that social media can have negative effects on so many different aspects of your life and I completely agree. Not a day goes by that I don't feel bad about not having the perfect body, wardrobe, or just life in general. I take time out of my day, time away from my daughter and boyfriend, to make sure I upload the perfect photo with the perfect filter at the perfect time. It's a vicious cycle that bloggers, influencers, and YouTubers go through on a daily basis.

Tomorrow is my birthday and I'll be turning the big 3-0! So much has happened in my 20's, both positive and negative, so I'm a little sad to see the end of those years. I am forever grateful that God allowed me to see 30 and I intend to make the next 10 years the best ones of my life!

Sometimes you want to add a few inexpensive, trendy pieces to your closet since you know you'll probably move on to a new trend in a couple months. The shopper's remorse you feel after a big purchase can often kill the high you get from retail therapy. I am a firm believer that great pieces can be found without maxing out your credit card. Of course, quality over quantity often applies to pieces that are more timeless and you'll wear season after season, but affordable fashion should never be a bad thing! If you're looking to update your fall wardrobe without breaking the bank keep reading to see my under $100 fall fashion picks!

There were great suggestions on the last comparison and I have a few more lined up for this month so keep an eye out for those. Today's post came to mind the other day and my first thought was "Duh!" It's all about the gorgeous Chloé "Drew" crossbody bag, which retails for $1,850! This bag is amazing, but not everybody can afford the real deal.
