Four years ago today I created a profile on blogger and started Delightfully Tacky. I was home from college for the summer, had just discovered fashion blogs, and thought that it would be a fun and creative hobby. Four years later and here I am, still plugging away at Delightfully Tacky! It's been so fun to have a sort of digital scrapbook chronicling the last four years. Through college, break-ups, graduations (both mine and my brothers'), having black and red and cotton candy colored hair, living in three different cities and six different houses as well as a Winnebago, crossing the country in said Winne, getting married, and beyond. Thousands of blog posts.
I feel like this space is about much more than outfits, but they've been the most consistent part of my blog. When I see these old outfits I remember something about that day. Where I was going. What I did. So here are some of my favorite outfits from the last four years.

It's been a crazy journey. If I'm still here in four more years I can't even begin to imagine where I'll be. I'm so thankful for all the wonderful friends I've made through this blog, and all the readers who take the time to come visit and read. Even if I'm no longer running this blog in four more years, it will still be fun to look back at this time in my life as chronicled through Delightfully Tacky.
