⁣It’s crazy how just a couple hours of light change completely altered my mood and motivation. ⠀
⠀
Over the last couple weeks, I’ve seen a drastic change in my motivation and as a result, I would get down on myself for it. Has anyone felt this way over the past month?⠀
⠀
Maybe my mind and body needed it? Or, it was a reaction to this ‘Groundhogs Day’ lifestyle mixed with the winter blues? Who knows! ⠀
⠀
I had a talk with myself this weekend and decided it was time to get back into it. Wake up early, work out, and do something for myself everyday. ⠀
⠀
Even if it’s simple, like 15mins of stretching in the morning - just something to nourish my body and reset my mind ❤ // #mentalhealthawareness #mindbody #mentalhealthadvocate #beigeoutfit #beigetones

⁣Debunking 4 Instagram myths:⠀
⠀
1. You need a huge following (10K+)⠀
FALSE - An engaged following is more successful than a large following of unengaged followers. Focus on building an authentic, targeted audience - this will be attractive to brands! ⠀
⠀
2. The need to story everyday⠀
FALSE - I felt the need to do this everyday but that’s not the case. Post with intent. Have a strong storyline to keep your audience intrigued as opposed to one off frames.⠀
⠀
3. Hashtags don’t work⠀
FALSE - hashtags work and tremendously help my reach. Ensure to be strategic and focus on niche hashtags for the best results!⠀
⠀
4. The need to post everyday ⠀
FALSE - instead of posting for the sake of throwing up content, post with intent. Post a few times a week with high quality content and valuable captions. // #instagramtipsandtricks #instagramtipsdaily #igtips #bottegaveneta #lugsoleboots

⁣Everything you’re feeling today is valid.⠀

⁣Everything you’re feeling today is valid.⠀
⠀
Let’s face it, there’s really no right way to spend Election Day and it's quite impossible to escape the intense anxiety. So here are a few things I'm doing to mitigate stress and improve my mental health today:⠀
⠀
1. Take small breaks, such as yoga stretches, meditation or an easy, self-care routine for a nice distraction.⠀
⠀
2. Call a friend or family member and address your feelings.⠀
- I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again. A support system is EVERYTHING. ⠀
⠀
3. Plan out the day. ⠀
- I’ve made a list of things for me to do today to distract myself from the news, and I’ve decided to turn on the TV after dinner this evening. ⠀
⠀
4. Set boundaries with social media.⠀
- I know this is tough, but try to spend no more than 10-15 mins an hour on social. Maybe stick to following one account for news updates? Alarms also help me manage my time and stay focused!⠀
⠀
5. Don’t stay up late, go to bed at your normal bedtime. Your rest and state of mind is a priority.⠀

Now let’s go out and VOTE! // #vote2020 #rockthevote #mentalhealthawareness #selfcarefirst #voteforchange #bidenharris2020

⁣I have a hunch that Rihanna designed this cute @savagexfenty rainbow bralette and leggings with the LGBTQ+ community in mind ;) ⠀
⠀
Which brings me to my next question - who's seen Rihanna's new #savagexfentySHOW Vo. 2 on @amazonprimevideo? Talk about a powerful and beautiful performance that not only highlights her new collection but also celebrates diversity and inclusion. Thank you Ri Ri for creating a line that suits all bodies and gender identities. ⠀
⠀
This comfortable loungewear look from @amazonfashion made me feel amazing for the first time post-surgery. I'm still a little insecure about my lower abdomen scars, so I was excited that the high-waistline covered them comfortably. Don't worry, in time I will come to embrace the scars :) #founditonamazon #ad #savagexfenty #loungewear

Roundup of some recent fall looks styled with few of my favorite go-to pieces 🍂❤️ // #fallfashiontrends #fallfashion2020 #jacquemus #jacquemusbag #autumnstyle

⁣Favorite fall trend: head-to-toe knits.⠀⠀
⠀
After my appendix surgery, I couldn’t wear jeans or my favorite pants. Therefore, knits became the go-to during recovery.⠀
⠀⠀
This @staud.clothing dress was the first fashionable piece I wore post surgery and for the first time I felt myself! It was comfortable, colorful, and perfect for fall. ⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Just because my body changed doesn’t mean my style did. Still getting comfortable with the scars, but soon I’ll fully embrace them 😊❤ // #falltrends2020 #autumnmood #autumnoutfits #staud #fallfashiontrends

⁣Small progress is still progress ⠀
⠀
I said this awhile back but I needed a gentle reminder 😘⠀
⠀
There are days I’m super productive and days I can’t manage to get anything done. Things happen - life changes, a pandemic, an uncomfortable election... you get the point.⠀
⠀
I need to remind myself that even if I check off one box on my list or answer one email, I’m making progress and I’m one step closer to my goal. In my mind it’s a little win for the day ❤⠀
⠀
So as you go about your day, know that progress is a reflection of just DOING. A little is just enough. We can’t be 💯 productive all the time. Our bodies need rest and we are worthy of that.
⠀
Happy Friday babes ❤️// #mentalhealthawareness #entrepreneurmindset #bottegaveneta #denimstyle

⁣My wife is my photographer and videographer - and her work consistently blows me away⠀
⠀
When we first started dating, she encouraged me to create a fashion blog and she’d help me shoot content. Four years later and we’re still going strong ❤⠀
⠀
I’m so impressed by how she always wants to incorporate new features and ways to capture content. She wanted to diversify our BTS videos, so she leveraged the GoPro Hero9 and attached it to her backpack strap. ⠀
⠀
Swipe through to see her video! It’s like you’re right next to her looking through her lens. Excited to keep sharing more BTS of our shoots! Let me know what else you’d like to see! // #fallfashion2020 #autumnvibes🍁 #fallfashiontrends #lesbiancouple #goprohero9
