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…

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…

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…

let things happen as they may
You know those people who will send you quotes or songs to help uplift or inspire you? Well, hi. I’m Paige. I am one of those people. My best friends are those people, and my Momma is too. I LOVE IT! This past week my bf, Tay, sent me a quote from this book she was rereading. I realized that I had read that same book a long time ago and was inspired by her to reread it too! Best decision I have made this month (you’ll see why below). You know…there are so many things I want to do. So many things I want to be good at. So…

Change in the Weather
I am sitting in my kitchen. I have two long sleeve shirts on. I am wearing my warmest sweatpants. Oh, and don’t think for a second that I do not have socks on. cuz I do. So yes, I’m just here thinking to myself “WHAT DID I DO?!” Yep. It’s real. I moved back to Utah. It’s in the hundreds in LA and my crazy self has ended up back in Utah where the weather is showing me no love. I am not going to lie, I would do anything to be laying by the pool, sipping a sparkling Bai (Bolivia Black Cherry to be specific), and listening to the…

it’s time to “stretch” myself
I am so excited to share an idea with you all. I might be crazy, but keep reading! So, I am just going to say it, I decided it’s time to stretch myself. I have been doing a lot of thinking lately, and if you could see into my brain, it would look like one of those illustrations you see with a bunch of squiggly lines all over the place. A colorful squiggly line mess, but a beautiful mess! I have thought about giving up the blog, because why would I continue when there are SO many other bloggers who inspire others more than I would ever be able to?…
