9 Confessions Of A LuLaRoe Addict

It all started when I complimented my co-worker's printed leggings and she said "they are LuLaRoe!" My response was, "they are Lula-what?!" She went on to explain to me the amazingness of this company and she offered to let me feel how soft her leggings were (by the way, they were soft like room-temperature butter). I wanted to know more. Around the same time, a family friend became a consultant. LuLaRoe is not something you can purchase in stores, you have to first find a consultant and then make purchases through them. But this is what makes these leggings, shirts, skirts and dresses such a craze: consultants only get certain items in their shipment and no two consultants have the same inventory therefore, you can find yourself mass-joining groups on Facebook to find your specific coveted item (these items are called "Unicorns" by the LuLaRoe community, basically this means you want a print that is hard to find).

I hesitantly looked at my family friend's LuLaRoe page and I bought my first pair. The rest is pretty much history, my co-worker warned me and said "once you buy one you will be hooked", and trust me I am. So far my collection has grown into eight pairs of leggings and three dresses but I'm fairly positive the obsession will continue to grow. Here are some things any LuLa-addict has experienced...

The first time you felt someone else's leggings and died at the softness in the fabric

When you got your first item in the mail and you knew you were hooked

Every time you get paid you accept that at least 15% of that paycheck will contribute to your LuLaRoe habits

When you find your Unicorn but it's in the wrong size

When you find your Unicorn and someone comments "sold" just seconds before you could

You wonder if you should just take out a loan and become a consultant already

Every time you try a new item you pray that you hate it so you never have to spend money on it again, but you never end up hating it.

You stalk other women in public who appear to be wearing LuLaRoe so you can ask them who their consultant is and be their BFF

You understand that you have a problem but you could be addicted to way worse things so it's OK

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
