The Good Old Days

Backpacks-Street-Style

Remember the good old days? Passing notes in class praying your teacher wouldn’t catch you. Hoping your 6th grade crush would sit next to you in the lunchroom. Playing with pogs. AOL 3.0 chatrooms. Away messages. Friendship bracelets. Making up dances. The only stress you had was where would the next slumber party be. It’s hard to believe all that time has gone by, and I can’t help but remember those great childhood years. Something I owned too many of back in the day was the backpack (all the way from Jansport to those fake Prada ones everyone I went to school with carried). I was all about the backpack. In time I was over that stage and thought they were uncool, but I guess I spoke too soon. I’m feeling backpacks again (as I mentioned in this post), and I’m not ashamed to say it.

new kinds of kicks

As you’ve previously read here, I think sneakers have really changed their ways. They are no longer boring and dreadful to wear outside of the gym; they are colorful, fashionable, and quite chic. Since January (when I wrote that post), I’ve come across even more pairs that I can’t help but fall in love with.

I am so excited that I am The Chic Sheet’s newest guest blogger, and my first post went up yesterday. For those who haven’t gotten a chance to see it, please click here to read. Enjoy and have a great weekend.
