No Time to Play Small: Stepping Into the Last Quarter in Style
Fall is just around the corner, and I can already feel the shift — not just in the weather, but in my energy. The last few months of the year are my favorite because they remind me that we still have time to finish strong. And for me, part of finishing strong means showing up fully — in my goals, my habits, and even in my style
.
When I was putting this look together, I reached for this teal green off-the-shoulder two-piece set from Fashion Nova that I’ve been waiting to wear. Something about the color feels like the perfect transition into fall — bold, but still soft. I paired it with black suede knee boots (also from Fashion Nova) and my go-to Amazon shades for that easy, effortless vibe I always look for in my outfits. Fashion for me has to be simple enough to throw on but still make a statement, and this look does exactly that.
But here’s the thing — this post isn’t just about the clothes. It’s about mindset
.
We’re in the final quarter of 2025, and I refuse to play small. ✨ If I want more, I have to be more. That means tightening up my routines, leaning into consistency, saying yes to new opportunities, and letting go of the fear of being seen — in life and online.
This is not the season to shrink back. This is the season to step up.
So here’s my challenge to you: take a look at where you are and where you want to be before the year ends. What can you do in the next three months to get closer to that version of yourself? Maybe it’s a new habit, maybe it’s a big decision, or maybe it’s just finally giving yourself permission to want more.
Because if we play small, we stay small — and we’re not doing that anymore.
✨ Your turn: What are you stepping into these last few months of 2025?
