I think the funniest part about wanting a beautiful life is realizing you’re also responsible for maintaining it (🤪). between working full time in fashion, building my jewelry brand, creating content, dating, having a social life, making time for my friends and family, trying to stay active, romanticizing the little things, and somehow finding time to just exist… i am quite literally overwhelmed 95% of the time. 😭 i have expensive taste, a million ideas, and apparently a deep inability to just sit down and do nothing. some days i’m feeling like the woman of my dreams and other days i’m wondering who authorized me to have this many responsibilities. and the funny thing is, i genuinely love all of it. i love getting dressed up, going on dates, making beautiful things, building something of my own, and having a life outside of work. but sometimes i forget how much energy it takes to do everything you love. today i randomly saw two girls wearing @solenejewelryshop Soléne on my tt fyp and it was such a small but sweet reminder that something i’m creating is actually making its way into other people’s lives. 🥹 anyway, i don’t want to be less ambitious, i just want to figure out how to enjoy everything without constantly feeling like i’m running behind. still figuring that part out. in the meantime, if anyone has figured out how to be a woman of leisure with 47 responsibilities, please advise. preferably over drinks. xx
