Struggles of Being A Blogger

Image
Hey everyone! My name is Greta and usually I like to keep things positive on here but today we are going to be addressing some of the struggles of being a blogger because it can be hard sometimes, especially when you are enrolled in school still. So please comment down below, follow my blog, follow me on instagram  @afabulousstyle , and lets get started! 1. Whenever people from school find out about your blog they feel the need to pull it up and look at my old articles and laugh at them in front of me. Or worse they mention it to teachers and then they pull it up on the projector and then you are just completely humiliated. 2. Its hard to upload articles 2 times a week when you have homework every single day! So I often find myself spending my entire weekend writing articles because I just don't have time on the week days cause of school! 3. Being a good blogger requires unique style, but sometimes people look at you funny when you wear what you want. I dress up every day...

Unpopular Opinions: "VSCO Style" (Rant)

Image
Hello everyone, and welcome back to my blog. I know that some people may get triggered by this but at this point I don't care. There is a popular so called "lifestyle" called VSCO girl lifestyle. Yes, VSCO is a photo editing app and people have transformed it into a "style" and "lifestyle" and today we are going to be talking about it. So please comment down below, follow my blog, and lets get started! I am just going to say this up front. VSCO IS NOT A LIFESTYLE! IT IS NOT A CLOTHING STYLE! It is literally just an app for editing pictures. The "VSCO clothing style" is literally just a basic girl on a beach. People need to stop calling it a lifestyle or a personality trait cause its really not. Thats all people. - Greta

Dress Code Life Hacks

Image
Hello everyone! My name is Greta and welcome back to the Prepster! Today we are going to be talking about some life hacks to help you get away with dress code violations a little bit easier. My school has a standard dress code, no bra strap exposed, fingertip length skirts and shorts, two fingers for straps, and so on, so I'm for sure going to be using some of these life hacks. So please comment down below, follow my blog, follow me on instagram @afabulousstyle and tik tok @preppylifehacks and lets get started! 1. Good posture will raise your shoulders slightly, making your fingers higher up (which can help with the fingertip length skirt issue) so always walk around the halls with good posture. 2. If you want to wear leggings but your dress code forbids it, wear it with a really oversized sweater or cartigan that covers up to your mid thigh. People will be less angry. 3. If you want to wear a tie up top but your dress code won't allow it, where a cami under it and the...

Please comment down below, follow my blog, follow me on instagram @afabulousstyle and lets get started! A GOOD PAIR OF OXFORDS: At least one high quality pair of oxfords is essential for prepsters when going back to school. The oxford shoe is so timeless and classic preppy and perfect for school, as it mimics some school uniform shoes but is still very stylish.

Add a blazer, some jeans and some oxfords and boom, a simple and stylish preppy look. Add a sweater, some fake glasses, some oxfords and a pleated skirt and you ...

How To Prepare For Back To School

Hello everyone! My name is Greta and today we are going to be talking about how to prepare for back to school because it can be hard to know what to do to mentally and physically prepare! So please comment down below, follow my blog for more classic preppy vintage content, follow me on instagram @afabulousstyle and lets just get started! 1 or 2 weeks before: @ I know everyone probably already tells you this, but like a week before school starts start getting into the habit of going to bed earlier. Maybe try like 1/2 an hour every day and eventually you'll be ready to go to bed by like 10, which is a good time to go to bed if you have to wake up at 6 am like I do. You should practice waking up early on the last few days of summer, but don't worry about that too much! @ Get all your supplies and pack your back pack as soon as you can, that way you wont have to worry about it the night before school starts! @ Watch a ton of back to school videos on youtube @ Finish al...
