{my signature piece}

It's no secret that I've always struggled with finding my personal style. I've always had this internal conflict between what's popular, and what I feel comfortable and beautiful in. This past year, I've really been able to find that perfect balance, and I was fortunate enough to almost completely rebuild my closet from the ground up. That being said, I brought something into my wardrobe last year that I, as well as others, now consider my "signature piece." 

On Friday morning, I got a tweet and a text, both before nine thirty. What were they about? Just friends, sending me something that reminded them of me. I think that's pretty amazing.

I try not to over do it, I really do. But it doesn't help that I have 23 hair bows, 5 pairs of bow earrings, and 2 pairs of bow shoes. I really love this little signature piece that I've come up with (and I've even started using it in my blog design). It's like personal branding of sorts, don't you think?

That being said, it is easy for me to want ohmygodgivemebowsoneverything...you know? Especially when there are bows showing up EVERYWHERE these days.

But I'll embrace it. And since it's my birthday next week, here are a few of my favorite bow pieces that need to make their way into my life. Hint hint.
