I obviously can't speak for everyone, but I think we all feel like this sometimes. It is so hard not to compare yourself to others on social media! <br /><br />I think the thing to remember when it comes to comparisons is that 'things' do not define you. They are just things. Your job and salary are also things that do not define you. What creates happiness and what leads to a fulfilling life are how you make a difference and you find things that bring you personal happiness. It's also so important to surround yourself with others who bring you joy and happiness- these people will never judge you because you don't have a fancy handbag to carry- and no one should be judging you because of this!! <br /><br />I also think it is important to remember that while you may feel poorlu about some things in your life, some people would kill for your life! Be proud of all you have accomplished and how far you have come!<br /><br />Sometimes the people who have the bags, shoes, etc. aren't always the nicest or happiest or whatever it may be! Social media is so misleading and while it can definitely be a source of inspiration, it can also be a source of heartbreak, too! <br /><br />If I were you, I would 'audit' your social media channels. See who you are following and if makes you feel badly, just unfollow! Try to find accounts that inspire and lift you up and I think you will notice a difference in how you approach social media! Just my two cents!

You have great style :) <br /><br />I love reading your blog so much. However, (and to be clear this is MY problem) I can't help but feel so horribly about myself that I don't have the means (I guess 55K/year doesn't get you very far in this world) to be able to buy Chanel flats, Manolos, Goyard totes, a nice car, premium brand clothing, etc. I tend to compare myself to others a lot and it makes me hate myself and wish I had a different life. <br /><br />Decorating magazines...instagram...blogs...I love reading and looking at them but just feel like it's a losing battle trying to keep up with it all. Sigh :(<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4918559434689983550.post-56134858968250595642019-02-06T15:09:46.882-05:002019-02-06T15:09:46.882-05:00Those are beautiful wedding shoes!

While I ended up not having the right occasion to wear mine before the wedding, I desperately wanted to A. because if you’re splurging on shoes you love, why not?! and B. there’s no better way to break them in!! Also, I totally had my shoes well ahead of my dress and as one of the first things I nailed down (it might even have been before our venue was official 😂).

I love pulling my wedding shoes out on New Year's Eve and on our anniversary. I'm hoping I'll have a formal fall or winter wedding to go to where I can where them, too.

(Which is how I ended up with three pairs of wedding shoes!) I actually wore mine beforehand to break them in, but taped over the monogram part so it wasn't technically bad luck. So exciting!
