blogging is hard

Between working about 30-35 hours a week in the store, and countless hours outside the store working on evolved and freelance work, blogging is hard. I love making graphics for posts and getting a good one all together and presentable. Getting home from a long day of dealing with pretty terrible strangers really takes it out of you - and on that note, I think everyone at some point in their lives should have to work retail for at least a month to see how terrible some people can be. It'll make you a better stranger to others, trust me. I am rarely rude to anybody.

What's that one quote? You can tell a lot by a person by how they treat others who can do nothing for them? I think so. That quote is my ish.

style-sesh!

After getting a degree in interior design, I never thought I'd be working a job that is basically interior decorating and styling. I never thought I'd like it either. I always styled my own room and made little vignettes out of habit, but no one seemed to care except me. Until now! Behold, the West Elm home stylist team. I was told to create three vignettes along with three corresponding stories/people (all were basically versions of me... hehe). It was actually really fun to tear up the house and set up imaginary spaces with borrowed merch. Approximately $1k worth of merch. In accessories. YEAH.

Here are the results. (after the jump!)
