These Shoes Were Made For Hustling: Embracing my inner Girl Boss



This is a sponsored conversation with Shoes Of Prey, but all opinions and text are my own.

First post of 2018! YAY! I’m hoping to set the tone for this entire year with this post and all the goals I have for my brand and my blog. I don’t think there would be a better way to start the year but with a great pair of heels that scream Girl Boss like this ones from Shoes Of Prey.

This year I am truly not feeling the whole “resolutions” thing. I think it just leads to disappointments. Now, that doesn’t mean that I don’t have goals for this year, to the contrary I have way too many goals! But I rather chose to have a clear understanding of my goals and working one day at the time to get there. I don’t know when I’ll get them but I am happy knowing that I have 365 opportunities to get there.



All my life I’ve been told I’m “bossy” a term that until the last couple of years had a negative connotation in my head until I read a quote by one of my personal idols, Amy Poehler where she says “I just love bossy women. I could be around them all day. To me, bossy is not a pejorative term at all. It means somebody's passionate and engaged and ambitious and doesn't mind leading” And that day, it all made sense. I was born to lead. Simple.

But I also have realized in this 3-year process of building my blog and my brand that having the right attitude does affect the outcome of everything that I do. Dressing the part also helps a lot! By now, you know that I am no the conventional girl and while sometimes I love to dress up, sometimes I really like to dress down and sometimes I like to mix it up! But this is the beauty of fashion and why I fell in-love with the fashion part of my blog. Because it lets me express myself. Dressing the part doesn’t mean wear a pant suit or heels. Dress the part you want to be; you want to be a trendy CEO? Put your twist to that blazer! Personalization is key when you want to express who you are through the way you dress.


This is why I loved Shoes Of Prey so much! They are a shoe company where you can design your own shoes and even personalized them with an inscription on them. I somehow knew these shoes were going to be a special piece for me and I took quite some time nailing down my own design, I know they look simple but when you have so many options and styles, trust me it can get tricky but so much fun! I also took the inscription to heart and probably was the hardest thing to decide on since I wanted it to be a powerful reminder of what 2018 was to hold for me. But when I landed on it, everything fell into place; “She can and she will”.


 
So yes, I am bossy, I take initiative, I have a lot to say about pretty much everything and I have no filter. And I love that about myself because without it who I am today would be a very different person and probably Miles + Smiles would not even exist. So, cheers to an amazing 2018 to all my girl bosses out there!
