So in case you haven’t heard about the Vanity Fair contest, I ended up being edged out by another blogger in the final minutes. Literally in the last 20 minutes. Which I will admit was kind of heartbreaking. Yes, I am disappointed, but I refuse to be anything but a gracious loser. So congratulations to her!
I want to say a massive thank you to you guys. I wouldn’t have gotten over 6000 votes without your love and support. I am truly overwhelmed by it and so grateful by how many people stepped up to support me. I am so lucky to have that and it does not go unnoticed!
You know that expression “When it rains, it pours?” Well, it kind of does. It seems bad luck tends to run together because one little thing keeps popping up after another. Having kind of a tough few days. It’s the little things that set me off, you know? Like after that bad day, you drop your phone for the millionth time and THIS time the screen smashes? I don’t mean to complain but sometimes it feels good to get it off your chest!!
Anyways, it’s Friday and that’s a wonderful thing! I hope you all have an amazing weekend and that I do too (insert cute and cheeky emoji here).
i know exactly what you mean! sounds like it’s time to kick back and relax. and at the very least, that is one lovely outfit!

What in da hell? How does someone even win in the last 20 minutes? That’s crazy! I’d be disappointed too! I definitely wouldn’t be as gracious of a loser as you in that situation.
Sorry you had a rough few days Jill. On the plus side, I find that when I have a rough few days, the next few ones are pretty okay! Hopefully it’s the same for you! 🙂

Aw, I’m so sorry to hear this, lady – you worked so hard and you definitely deserved the top spot. But your grace in defeat is admirable 🙂 Hope the weekend is better!
