"Where's B been?!"

The question I've even been asking myself lately!

*** You might want to grab a coffee and get comfy for this one, it's a long post!***

SO much has been going on, or at least it seems like there has been and I had felt the need to take a serious step back from blogging. Mainly because I didn't want to put half a$* (excuse my language) content on my blog just because I wasn't able to put the fair amount of time into it, and I also felt that other things in my life were more important at the time. So I decided to step back to give myself the space I needed, in order to focus on other stuff!

SO, I bet you're wondering what "stuff" I've been up to, and what's been consuming all my time.

Here we go :)
First things first, the main reason I needed to take a step back was the fact that I needed to soon decide what the hell I'm gonna do with my life.
Simple, right?! Negative. 
Yeah, I know.....try answering that yourself when you DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER. It's definitely not cool, and it is a definite set back. I felt like I was always trying to "figure out" what my school/life plan was and I truly needed to focus on doing my research and applying to other nursing programs/schools and really getting a plan for my life come Fall 2017! But, just so you know...I do in fact - finally, have a plan. Just in case you were wondering😉
And I wanted to mention that I do realize I am young, and I have allllll the time in the world to figure out what I want to do, but this girl is burnt out on school and is SO ready to be done. I could graduate with a bachelors just from all my dang credits, and I'll already be a senior this fall. So even though I know I have time, I am so ready to graduate!!

Secondly, $$$$$!
Believe it or not, I love to shop, splurge, and spend - but honey it takes mulahhh (money), money I didn't have or need to spend, plus I have bills to pay - which means...no new pretty clothes or accessories for B! :(
But behold, while I was taking time off from blogging I had a lot of time to be thinking about different types of posts I can do with the blog other than fashion, so I'm excited to be incorporating some of them in soon!

Now for a few life updates and things I wanted to mention! 
I don't know if you remember me mentioning a while back, a sweet surprise that Cody is so generously paying for and letting us get - and she is seriously the sweetest little baby girl ever.
Me and Cody are happily adding a sweet Golden Retriever pup to the fam!
We already love her SO much!! We can't take her home quite yet, so I don't want to share pictures, but I will soon enough! Anyways, she's our little butter ball and we couldn't be more happy to have her sweet self with us :)

And lastly, I wanted to fill y'all in on a little extra stuff that's going on!
As some of you know, and I've said before on here, I have struggled with terrible acne, big pores, OILY skin (oh its oily), and I have taken many many antibiotics over the years in order to lessen my breakouts or eliminate my acne all together and nothing has worked. I have been soooo hesitant to go to extra mile and take Accutane, but I've decided it's pretty much my last resort and hopefully works out for me.
With that being said, I have started taking accutane recently and planned on doing updates on my skin/the side affects. The products that work for my while on it, etc. The only thing is I am SO hesitant to put pictures of me with absolutely no makeup on, all in my face, showing everything on my skin - because to be honest this is one of my biggest insecurities and a lot of people have never seen me without makeup on! So I'm going to have to grow on that, but seriously, if you'd like me to do posts like this because you're considering taking Accutane or are just interested, please let me know! It seriously helps immensely! Comment on instagram (@brandilynanne), email, comment on my blog post, whatever! I'd love to hear from you :)

PHEW, that's a super long post. But after being M.I.A. for almost 2 months I think y'all deserved an update!😊

I DO have a few up coming looks and I planned on putting up and a survey soon to get more feedback from y'all! Stay tunned! Hope you're enjoying your week :)
