As Thanksgiving comes to a close I felt it was only right to share what I’m thankful for this year….yes I try to be grateful and thankful for everything life has given me year round but today it hit me all that this year has given me…making me feel extremely blessed.

As always I’m thankful for my amazing family, friends, and my adorable dog Charlie, but I’m also thankful for a few new amazing things that have happened this year:

Last year at this time I was a senior at Hunter College in NYC…writing final papers, working part time as a hostess at a restaurant on Long Island, all while interning at WWD then freelancing at Footwear News.

Today, I’m a college graduate who landed her dream job straight out of college being a social media guru for FFANY (Fashion Footwear Association of NY).

I launched this blog which is a piece of me as well as an extension of my style, personality and who I am as a person.

And….

There’s also one new addition I’m thankful for this year…my boyfriend. I’m going to be honest. I thought for the longest time I was going to be like Carrie Bradshaw; alone and single in the Big Apple but happy and content with a job at Vogue and a closet filled with shoes, but my boyfriend has given me hope that maybe, just maybe…good guys still exist…

I hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving and have given thanks for all the amazing things that life has brought you this year!
