Seventeen Style Council



Ive been reading Seventeen Magazine since I was 14, back then I just loved the clothes and funny embarassing stories. Through the years it's been a part of me growing up and learning about myself. A few months back I received an email from Seventeen saying that they were considering me for the Style Council. The fact that they even considered me meant the world to me, one thing I hated that I did was that I doubt it myself, I said there so many good blogs out there with more followers and views than mine so I tucked in the back of my mind. A couple weeks later I received the email saying that they had chosen me to be a part of the group! I'm saying all this to say don't doubt or belittle yourself, when planning your goals aim high and never settle for anything lower, if you reach your goal set a new one, set a higher one. Don't try to be the second, or third somebody, be the first you and do what makes you happy. these are the words from the heart of a girl who was bullied for being different and thinking outside of the box until one day she said I don't care if you don't like it, I don't want to be like y'all, this makes me happy. Don't hold back from being yourself!
Check out your latest issue of Seventeen Magazine, I'm on page 56!

  5. Aw! Congratulations! Love the mini self-loving speech :) It is a bit sad when people can't see how brilliant they are. I have been told to "believe in myself" in so many different ways lately. I hope I get to the stage in my life when I don't doubt myself either ;) x

  9. SO awesome! You deserve it all! I feel you girl...mainly the only blogs that get highlighted these days have 5000+ followers. I'm happy to see someone with GREAT style and not necessarily the numbers (...yet) has the spotlight for once:)

  10. First off congratulations! I've been admiring all of the girls hoping to grace their pages one day, but I won't give up! But I do have a question, did they contact you first or did you apply? The whole system confuses me
