This is a special post in collaboration with my Style Collective Sisters!
Who I am and Why I blog:
In case you have never come across my blog, welcome! A Beautiful Little Fool is inspired by F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby I loved the character of Daisy Buchanan and her message so much that I got it tattooed on my rib cage! I love how Gatsby created himself from the ground up to accomplish success in his terms. A Beautiful Little Fool is someone who doesn’t play by the rules and instead creates them.
My Personal Mission Statement:
I want to help women feel empowered everyday through fitness, food, and fashion!
I’ve been really focused lately on my health and wellness journey and at first I was keeping it to myself but then an inspired thought crept in and said, “Why don’t you share your journey?” So even though when I started my blog it was meant to focus on fashion it has slowly been consumed with my wellness journey.
I’ve worked on achieving this through losing over 50 pounds, starting a new relationship with food, and learning to dress for the body I have, not the body I want!
What does International Women’s Day Mean to Me:
International Women’s Day, to me, means finding and using my voice. Knowing that I can wake up in the morning and be the woman I want to be and not what society thinks I should be. International Women’s Day is about supporting one another and being equal in a man’s world.
Why I love Style Collective:
Being a member of so many amazing communities has really made me feel less alone and able to lean on the support of so many women who are also going through the same things!
