And we believe that the inward person is FAR more important than the… Continue reading You Are A Walking Billboard
From 3rd grade until 12th grade I went to a school that required we wear a uniform. If you are picturing white, green, gold, and navy plaid pleated skirts, polos, blazers, and brown loafers, you are accurately envisioning my wardrobe during these years.
