Let's Keep It Kind

So I have never had an issue with rude comments on my blog, but today someone left a rude comment and I just wanted to address it. I'm not mad at whoever it was (It was annonymous)
I just ask that everyone remember we're all in the blog world just to have fun, enjoy fashion and inspire one another through our experiences and what we wear. This blog gives me the freedom to express myself and it also gives me inspiration from others...so Thanks to all my Fav blogs like My Super Sweet Fashion Diary, Fab Finds Uner $50, Daily Work It, Gingersnap and more!! I love reading your blogs daily and I am so thankful we have this great place to share our ideas :) So let's all just keep it polite, but if there are any rude comments they will definately be deleted! Thanks everyone for supporting me and Low Cost High Style! :) ~Kendra~

Style Obsessed Sunday

So since my boyfriend was sleeping all day (cus he works nights) I decided to keep myself entertained on this lazy sunday by organizing my Low Cost High Style Notebook, cleaning out pics that don't really inspire me anymore and also creating a few new notebooks. I started by laying out all my supplies and the new D.I.Y. notebook I just started working on.

.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
I made tabs for Clothing, Shoes, Jewelry, Headbands, Purses and Misc. Accessories in my DIY notebook and put in all the pages I have so far and it looks really good, but I definately have plenty of room for more DIY ideas.

.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
While cleaning out my L.C.H.S. notebook I realized I had tons of inspiration pics from Fab Finds Under $50 and I had plenty of unused notebooks, so I decided to make a notebook all about inspiration from Kimberly's blog. This is what the pages look like: (Below)
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
So I had a lot of fun looking at all the inspiration pics and magazine pages and thinking about all the posibilities within my closet :) So fun!!! ~Kendra~

Tommorow's the last day of training and first day of starting actual work....ahh I hope I do well :) Wish me luck!!
