My friend peeked at my closet and told me that he loved that my closet was mostly colors. I didn’t realize I had so many pinks, reds, and coral before he mentioned it. I always try to stay away from buying too many black or gray dresses especially in the warmer seasons. It’s funny because the more I look at my closet, the more colors I think I need.

It’s funny I don’t really […]
