This lovely season the über talented Alexa Chung partnered with the fantastically comfy, chic label Madewell to create nothing short of a daywear masterpiece. As I make my way into a new life, I'll look back on what I've learned and move forward in a new skin... I'm sure it will all be made well. (Umm.. did I really just write that. Uh?)

-Always pair the outfit with the shoes no one else thinks will match... trust you, it will!
-Unexpected will never be boring.
-Go ahead, wear the headscarf!
-Big glasses are nerdy. Sexy nerdy.
-"Oh I'm sorry, do I not match today? Wait. I'm pretty sure I planned on that"
-Braids. Braids. Braids. Twist them up, wear them down... just put them in!
-Shop vintage. Not just for your closet, but for your whole house!
-Crafts make for brilliant endeavors.
-Travel! It'll be good for you.
-A margarita is always a good place to start.
-PAMA liquor. Buy some, please!
-Cocktails made with freshly muddled fruit... mmmm.
-New restaurants house new adventures. Try one!
-Meat tastes better than being vegetarian feels. Ha!
-Why have a smoothie when frozen yogurt exists?
-Once you go organic, 4 PLUs just taste icky. Always look for the 9.
-Drinking a cappuccino with a warm pastry makes me feel like I'm in Italy.
-Chocolate ice cream will never taste good to me... no matter how many times I try it.
-It takes two of my hands to fill one of a man's.
-When a heart breaks, you can actually feel it.
-Nothing beats family... Wait a minute, I knew this one already!
-True friends are the most precious jewels I could ever hope to adorn my world with.
-To truly love someone other than yourself is one of the happiest and most painful tasks.
-Age means nothing when you find a friend that's young at heart!
-Always be honest and always be true, and you will never regret what you say or do. (Oh, rhyming...)

Now onward, and in a new outfit no less!

Love.
