Graduation & What I'm Doing Now...

Well, I am officially done with college! I graduated with my BA in Marketing and Public Relations (woot woot!).

These past four years of undergrad have been memorable, and I feel very lucky to have gone to such a great school and have made so many amazing friends and connections. 

To say that this spring semester has been stressful would be an understatement. On top of classes, trying to figure out what you want to do with the rest of your life is intense. As you probably would have guessed by now, I love fashion. I always thought I wanted to move to NYC and work in the fashion industry, and that is what I had planned to do post-graduation.

I had everything lined up to move to New York, but then recently received an opportunity to travel the world doing marketing and PR! I will be traveling all over the United States, Mexico, and Europe for a year as a marketing and promotions representative for an non-profit organization called Up with People. I will be starting my job in Denver, Colorado and ending in Rome, Italy.

I will continue to blog on my adventures beginning this summer when I start traveling with the organization. I always thought working in fashion was my calling, and as much as I would love to eventually be a part of this industry, I want to try something new and explore my different interests. I enjoy blogging about fashion on my own terms, and I plan to always do what I love. 

Here are some pictures from graduation day. It ended up being a really fun time considering it was 80+ degrees. 

I wore a simple dress from Loft in black with a blue stripe, and black wedges that I recently got from Marshalls. I wore my Alex + Ani bracelets, and my black gumdrop Kate Spade necklace. 

All of my friends and I decorated the mortar board of our graduation caps. I chose to match the colors in my dress, and put an anchor on it :)

Mike wasn't my photographer today since we both had to worry about graduating ;)

I had an eventful weekend but I am so thankful for the time I got to spend with some amazing people.

Look forward to a post coming soon!
