The First Post

Hello, my name is Kaitlin Valentine. Sorry for the awkward introduction, I'm crap at writing "first posts". I feel like the first post should be something that explains what this site is about even though most people probably won't read it.

So here it goes:
I've created this blog/website because well, I'm a young twenty-something who has a deep deep yearning to live a lifestyle I frankly can't afford. I would love to wear designer clothes, buy expensive perfume and makeup, have an amazing apartment and eat fine foods, but as a recent college graduate who is struggling to find out what exactly life out of school means, I don't exactly have the income that the aforementioned desires call for. My whole life is basically a Tim Gunn 'make it work' situation...
So now on to the actual point of this website. I wanted to create a place for people in the same situation as me. Here you can find options to keep you modern, chic and on trend that won't make you bankrupt or depressed. You can read about easy and inexpensive recipes that are better than a fast food value meal, simple DIYs that can take your apartment from awkward college dorm room to chic & sophisticated, and the latest beauty and fashion trends that you can achieve with less $100.

I hope this sounds interesting and helpful to you! I also want to hear from you! If you have any tips or tricks that help you fake it until you make it let me know!
