Let’s be honest, on the day to day we’re all pretty hard on our own personal style – we have “nothing to wear”, we’re continuously making lists of pieces we’d like – neigh, need to buy and we’re constantly lusting over the outfits we dig up on Instagram and Pinterest. Yes I am generalising here, but after 28 years of being female I know what it’s like. That being said, a couple of years ago I came to this realisation:
It doesn’t have to be perfect.
One of the biggest turning points for me with my personal style was when I stopped trying to achieve perfection and decided to just own it.
Instead of worrying if I’ve put together the best combination, or wishing I had that other pair of shoes, I get dressed (yes this still includes a few changes) but once I’m out that door, I take on the day without second guessing it.
Of course there are still times I don’t love what I’m wearing, but committing to my looks has made a huge difference in the confidence I have with my personal style. So whenever I’m starting to wonder why the hell 6AM me thought sneakers and ripped jeans were appropriate for my 12PM meeting, I just say to myself, “Whatever Lor, own it.”

Stunning images in this post babe! I really like the soft pink pieces you have been wearing lately especially with you blonde hair. They compliment each other nicely. It’s so important to love what you wear, and you are right, it’s sometimes those scrambling mornings where your favourite looks shine!
