Welcome to The Girl in the Checkered Vans!
My name is Kayts, and as y’all may have guessed I’m the girl in the checkered vans. I’m twenty years old and am currently in the very complicated process of figuring out what it means to be Kayts in the real world. I decided to make this blog as a way for me to document the journey that is my life and everything I love about it. Y’all may have picked up on a slight southern twang there. Well I would just like everyone to know that, that is just a nasty habit I picked up in my short year and a half at TCU, so if I say y’all one too may times I’m sorry in advance. I am a born and raised California girl, and for the most part, you can most definitely tell. I’m from Rancho Mirage, California; home of Coachella, snowbirds, no real changing of the seasons, and my personal favorite music festival, Stagecoach. Growing up in the desert has made me a certified desert rat, meaning that I love anything to do with the desert and with that comes my annoying obsession with my jeep and off-roading. So if I haven’t scared you guys away already, I’m sure you will get to hear a lot about my jeep, fashion, traveling, and just about anything that I find blogworthy.
Just so y’all know a little bit more about me as we share this journey together, I think y’all should know that I am a brutally honest person at times, and the first thing that pops into my head is typically what comes out of my mouth or in this case my hands… I have no filter and for that I am gonna say a quick sorry in advance. I have a deep love for traveling, art, fashion, photography, food, adventures, cheerleading and because I am my father’s daughter, off-roading and anything that has to do with the desert, ocean or big bodies of water. And as y’all may have guessed a great love for my checkered vans. I just recently decided to transfer colleges, but while attending TCU I was a Fashion Merchandising major with a minor that changed three times in the short time that I was there, it went from Business to Graphic design, to finally Studio Art. As you can probably see from the changing of my minor, I change my mind like I change my clothes… too damn often. So it shouldn’t be a big surprise that I am now going to be attending The Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles, California in hopes of getting a BA in Social Media. What can I say… you can take the girl out of California, but you can’t take California outta the girl… believe me, I tried… and while I enjoyed my short time in Texas… I am so happy to be back home where my heart belongs and on to my next adventure.
I hope y’all enjoy reading what life throws my way because I’m so excited to start this adventure with y’all.
