Totally Not Awkward First Post


Hello, and welcome to my totally not awkward first post. I'm Leslie, and after reading style blogs obsessively for a year or so, I'm finally attempting to start my own. Eep. I thought I'd start out with some basics about me and the blog.

who?
My name's Leslie, with an S sound, not a Z. I'm a twenty year old student with a major in international politics and two part-time jobs. I have a boyfriend, three roommates, and a dog, all of whom crack me up on a regular basis. My second home is Sweden, and moving back there is still my number one goal.

what?
A personal style blog. Like I said, I'm a fan of other people's blogs, but I never wanted to leave comments because I didn't have a blog of my own. The title of my blog is from a line in Andrew Marvell's To His Coy Mistress.

where?
I'm a Californian in Arizona for now, but I'll be spending my summer in Estonia for an internship, and my next (and last!) undergrad year studying in Austria.

why?
I love clothes and dressing up, but no one enjoys listening to my monologues about my closet quite as much as I enjoy giving them. Consider this my new outlet. And to be cheesy/honest, all of the bloggers that I read seem like such cool girls, so I want in on this community, pretty please!

That's it from me for now. I'll be back in a few days with an outfit post (provided I can outsmart my new tripod), and until then, I'm commenting on blogs that I've always been too afraid to comment on. Does that ever get less awkward? Anyway, I hope you'll say hello, and see you later!
