Insta EJC: A look back at 2012

At the end of every year I look back and reflect.

I acknowledge my triumphs, I evaluate my mistakes and I always set the bar higher for the coming year.

2012 for me as both a blogger and a normal gal was filled with unimaginable adventures.

I started the year with my very first outfit post (for fun)...

Little did I know that Stiletto Beats would turn into a personal style blog!

I saved a little black and white furball bunny that I have come to adore tremendously. 

I graduated Summa Cum Laude (second in my class) from Woodbury University.

I began collaborating with photographers, creating wonderful photos that took my blog to the next level.

(Thank you Eric I, Alan Loayza and Emilio Castro) 

I was featured on sites such as The Examiner, Bang Style and more!

I was chosen as one of MAGIC's Official Bloggers, spending a week

reporting, tweeting, and posting all the amazingness of the tradeshow.

I had the opportunity to collaborate with my favorite brands - Michael Stars, 

Pour La Victoire, and many more building relationships and upping Social Media!

I grew up as a woman, realizing how important my family was. 

I met and built blogger friendships that will last me till the end of my blogging days!

Love all you girls...you know who you are. 

I explored, observed and grew in a city filled with the wildest of dreams.

Thank you to all my followers, your support and love has meant the world to me!

I hope you join me in my 2013 journey and continue to visit my blog.

XO 2012!
