So I've had this blog for quite awhile and haven't posted much...
I have been super busy with school and testings and college searching and everything, so I thought I'd formally introduce myself with a blog post so you guys can get to know me a bit better before I start posting regularly.
If you hadn't already noticed, my name is Emmi. Emmi, not Emmy, Emme, Emmie, Emmey, etc. EMMI. Don't ask why it's spelled that way, my parents picked it out. That's not my real name, so I'll let you figure out what my real name is(HINT: not Emily).

This is my second fashion blog...The first I made three years ago and it's pretty bad. (http://www.fashionablielate.blog.com for anyone who wants a good laugh).
Since the first blog, my style has evolved over time...From tunics with leggings and neons to combat boots and dark colors to collared shirts and monograms to the mix of styles I have today, I still can't categorize my style. I'm definitely leaning towards a more preppy and sophisticated style (except for the past few days as it's been -10 and I have been wearing sweatshirts and Uggs...oops...I regret nothing).
I guess I'll tell you a few things about myself:
*I'm pretty small so I get frequently picked up by people and love to jump on people since I can't possibly injure anyone besides myself. I like to call these"surprise piggyback rides".
*I'm diabetic #swag
*I aspire to be either a lawyer, standup comedian, personal shopper, and/or hand model.
*I am one of those people who says "I literally cried" about whatever, but in reality, I LITERALLY cried. I cry over everything. Puppies, shoes, handbags, cleaning off my car, extra large lattes, you name it.
*I go through weird food obsessions. The latest is hot sauce. I put it on EVERYTHING. Except toast, which is my other obsession. Only butter on toast. It makes sense and it's delicious.
*If you are my friend, be prepared for me to spontaneously show up at your house & never leave you alone. Also, be prepared to be the subject of my fashion/ photography photo shoots.
This is my super hot best friend TJ modeling some cute fall looks.
*I loveeee to travel (I'm a dual citizen of The Netherlands and the US). I've been to over 10 countries. This is me in Barcelona in fall 2013.

| This is me and Tay trying to reenact a Friends poster we saw. (Note: I am lactose intolerant, but this milkshake was necessary.) |
*I spend a lot of time doing school work... I swear I'm not a nerd...
*Oh yeah, I dance and sing...and play soccer when I don't have a concussion or broken back :-)

Hope I get to show you guys who I really am through this fashion blog. I've learned to not take myself too seriously, so we'll see how serious this blog turns out to be!
xo,
Emmi
