"Glam Witch Style by Bridget Eileen" Vision Statement

We receive both subtle and blatant detrimental messages often: that we should spend more, weigh less, be more modest, look younger, or generally just be better than we are right now. I don't accept this. I feel it's more than okay to not have expensive clothes, to wear a size 18, to be over age 20 and want to look cute AF, and to express ourselves in ways that aren't mainstream: I feel this is essential to living our best lives.

When I started this blog, I had been posting outfit selfies every day on Facebook. However, a little album on my private Facebook account wasn't really dynamic and public enough for what I wanted to do with each picture: showing off my economic and artistic prowess when it comes to a budget wardrobe full of vintage inspired outfits for home and office. I decided to move everything to a public website and create this DIY cottagecore and glam witchcore eclectic style body positive beauty blog. 

The thing about this little hobby of mine is, the more I do it, the more I love it. And the more I read other beauty bloggers, especially in the various style communities I consider myself a part of--the age 30+ and 40+ style community, the body positivity community, the cottagecore and witchcore style and vintage clothes community, the thrifters, and budget-friendly bargain hunters--the more I love what we're doing. Because I see what we're doing is more than just showing off cool clothes: we're changing the culture.

When I first began posting, I'd just put up a picture and a little note about where I got the items from. The more I've done this, though, the more I see how explaining how to find items at discount prices, how to style an outfit that's in a cottagecore, witchcore, or other vintage style but for work, and especially how to wear outfits that make you feel happy in your body is a subversive and empowering thing.  

So, without doing anything but being myself and explaining what I wore today, I've ended up doing something rebellious. And I'm happy to do so, and I hope it drives you to do so, and support those who do so, as well. 

Thanks for your support along the way!
