Single During the Holidays
I am just going to come out and say it because I know lots of you think it. The holiday season can be so hard sometimes! Not everyone has the ideal situation. I am lucky to have an awesome family, BUT I would be lying if I said that I didn’t get sad. I know I joke around about being single, A LOT, but being single during the holidays hits a little harder. All my siblings are married. Almost all my cousins are married. Even though there is so much love that radiates from all of them, I still feel lonely. Because I hate how this feels and I KNOW…

What Makes Me GO?
It’s time to get real. I have hit multiple creative funks within the past WEEK. I have felt so stressed and anxious, yet I LOVE where I’m at in life right now. I feel very blessed to have this collaboration fall into my lap, because this shoe is SO special. It’s not like every other Nike shoe. When Nike mentioned that the Nike Air Max 270 Reacts were influenced by the most expressive art movements of the 20th century, I was blown away. I imagined the design team strolling through museum after museum. I pictured them taking in all of the colors, strokes, textures, and angles. THEN IT CLICKED. I…

If I Were a Shoe…
I have a silly question for you that you may have never been asked before…have y’all ever related to a piece of clothing or accessory? If you were to ask me this question a month ago, I’d say “UM PAIGE NO, YOU ARE WEIRD”. Now, I can say that I absolutely do! Here is the story of how this question and blog post came about… I was given the opportunity to work with Finish Line and adidas to review the adidas Original Continental 80 shoe. I am not going to lie. I had to think about it for a second. I am really trying to keep my blog a place…

How well do you know Paige Arminta?
Hiiiiii! This blog post was SOOOOO fun for me to write! I didn’t get to EVERYONE’S questions that were submitted via my Instagram Story, but there are 46 questions below that will give you a little look into my personal life! What religion do I practice: I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. What has been one of my hardest obstacles in my life and how did I get through it? I am not going to go into much detail here, because it is very personal and doesn’t only involve me. My life took an unexpected turn when I was going into high…

Body Dysmorphia vs Paige Arminta
I never thought the day would come where I would admit this to not only myself, but to those who randomly end up on my blog. I can see my mom and my close friends saying “hallelujah, she finally understands that she has this issue!” Bless all of them for putting up with me and all my crazy talk. I can’t imagine how annoying that gets. I am here to tell you all that I have a small case of a stupid thing called: body dysmorphia (BDD). Yes, I am that girl that, at times, feels so ashamed of “my flaws” that I skip out on social events or photoshoots.…

THE DAY I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!
Today is THEE day. I can’t tell you how many hours I have spent imagining what this day would look like. How I would feel today? Where in life I would be? Would I be happy? Nervous? Anxious? Would I be capable? Would I be “ready”? Would I feel 100% confident in knowing that “it is the right time” to make this leap? Let me first start by saying this…I AM TERRIFIED. Literally terrified. I am anxious. I am NOT 100% ready. I don’t know if this is the right time. What I do know, is I am happy. I am capable. I am passionate. I am ready to be…

Decisions Stress Me Out…
When all is said and done, I suck at making decisions. Especially when they are big decisions! I understand that I make lots of little decisions unconsciously everyday, but when it comes to big decisions I find myself getting really stressed out! I recognized that when it comes to me making a big decision, I only list the cons. I get fearful. I tend to point out every little thing that could go wrong. As you could imagine, the longer I go back and forth, it prolongs a result that could end up changing my life. Sounds dramatic, but it’s so true! I am currently going through this as we…

Random Look, Random Story
I have been racking my brain on something to chat about, but nothing is coming to me. BUT…i did have a story about this outfit that some of you may find funny… So..a couple of weeks ago i made my way to Arizona to see some family. Well, Utah doesn’t have a Zara…YET, so you better believe i made a stop to get some shopping done. I don’t see my niece very much, so I made it into a girls day out and took my mom and niece with me! Just FYI, my niece is 9. If you have ever asked me about shopping and my tips and tricks, my…

I’m Afraid of Goals
It’s that time of year when we all get our pen and paper out and write down our goals for the new year, right? I’ve gotta be honest..I haven’t done that for the past couple of years. I’ll think about things that I want to do, but never write them down. I personally have felt like it’s too big of a commitment and i don’t want to disappoint myself if I don’t accomplish what’s on my list. Lame, I know. You know that picture you’ve seen with a male brain vs a female brain? The males have like a few squiggly lines, but the females have like a thousand squiggly…

Moves need to be Made
When I was living in LA I kind of put my blog on the back burner. For some reason I couldn’t find the time to do it. I am not sure if that was because I really didn’t have the time, or if it was because I lost hope in myself and what my blog could be come. I get really overwhelmed and seem to justify my thoughts and actions. I mean, I would see all my Utah blogger friends growing and doing the best that they could to keep up the hard work. They seemed to find time. How come I couldn’t? I realized that I gave myself every…
