Blogger Link-Up: Coming of Age Epiphanies

 

 

 

A few weeks ago, Camille (the talented writer and photographer behind The NYC Diet) contacted me about an interesting topic she had, prompted by the kind of shopping trip we have all  experienced.

Being in our mid to late twenties, many of us have realized that the products and 

brands we once considered “okay,” just do not do the job anymore.

 

Yet, there are still so many things we will never outgrow.

Things I will not Scrimp On:

 

Absolutely anything to do with my hair. Great hair is essential in looking 

put together and every dollar spent is done so without a single regret.

Wardrobe essentials: These are items I will use time and time again, a gorgeous pair of pumps, well-made oxford, tailored blazer, classic strand of pearls, timeless frames, etc.

 

While I may allow myself the occasional trendy piece, they are not usually at prices deemed a splurge.

Literature: I spend an inordinate amount of money on books, both hard copy and electronic. 

 

We are never beyond learning and it is almost impossible for me to leave a Barnes & Noble empty handed (and I would not have it any other way.)

What I will never be too old for:

 

 

 Things of the sparkly, pink nature. There really is no concrete reason why, 

they just brighten my day and make me happy.

Dessert. I indulge in chocolates, froyo and other sweet treats not exceedingly often, 

but I will not pretend they are exempt my diet.

Mittens. Believe it or not, I prefer them to gloves. 

My hands just seem warmer when all of my fingers are nestled together.

Riding my bicycle. I cannot describe the feeling I get while riding my cruiser on a Spring day when buds are beginning to flower, on hot Summer nights with only the breeze to cool my skin or gorgeous Fall afternoons where the blazing colors of the foliage are nothing short of astounding.

 

 

 

What will you never grow too old for?
