My Farewell to Kelsey Nicole

I started this blog almost two years ago as a place for me to be creative and express my interests in fashion, beauty, and health. I fell in love and discovered that blogging is so much fun. However, as life became busier, my attitude towards Kelsey Nicole began to change. What once brought me excitement and joy soon started to leave me feeling anxious and stressed. Time is precious and recently I have made a significant effort to be more selective in the ways I choose to spend my time. So for now, I am taking a step away from the blogging world.

I have met so many wonderful people through this little community and so many doors opened to many fun and exciting adventures. It is time, however, for me to say goodbye for now. Maybe I'll be back one day, who knows! To all of you who have read and followed along on this little journey of mine, thank you.
