Ahh yes, today is the big day. Goodbye 20s, hello 30.
Surprisingly, I’m alright with turning 30—I thought my 20s went rather well, so I’m excited to see what this new phase brings. Plus, my favorite musician Mike Doughty commemorated the big event with the release of his new CD Sad Man Happy Man. So how can you not be psyched about that?!
Okay, I made that last part up.
But…
(you knew this part was coming, didn’t you?)
…if there was one thing I could do differently, I wish I would have discovered my inner “punk” a bit sooner. Who knows, maybe that’s the sort of stuff you figure out when you turn 30?
At any rate, I decided to make a freebie kit that embraces my inner ”me”—which I would describe as girly punk.
In celebration of my big day, take a moment to think about who you really are and how you’re going to express that to the world today.
Me? I’m going to wear all-black. And, extra mascara. : )

Happy birthday, fashionably late.
Great new kit. Thanks for giving us the gift on your birthday. I will be turning 30 in 4 months, and am looking forward to it. Life just keeps getting better over the years. So my 30s should be great!
