Lourdes Leon, Madonna’s eldest daughter, is graduating high school and wrote about leaving high school and entering her college years in a new Material Girl blog post.

Lourdes Leon Graduates High School

Leon, 17, launched the Material Girl clothing company with her mother when she was just a freshman, and in her most recent blog entry, she comments on how strange it is that the clothes she is working on now will hit shelves when she is a freshman in college.

“I just met with the Material Girl design team. Can’t believe I was just starting high school when we launched MG and now I am graduating! These looks will hit Macy’s when I am a college freshman,” Leon wrote.

Leon graduated from the New York City performing arts LaGuardia High School, where she studied drama, and is rumored to be attending the University of Michigan in the fall. In her blog post, Leon said she was thankful for attending a school that allowed her to experiment in fashion, regardless of how she might cringe at some of her previous fashion choices.

“Makes me happy knowing that I went to an arts school where any kind of style could fly: It gave me the confidence and the yolo spirit I needed to successfully look like a clown (it’s fine),” Leon wrote.

Like most high school seniors, Leon revealed that graduating from high school has been incredibly surreal and expressed her worries at impending college life:

“I feel like High School Graduation is something I’ve been talking about forever and now its finally here. I was so excited about ‘being done with school’ and now that I’m actually done I’m like clammy and sweating and nervous because… WHAT?!?! Knowing that I’m going to have to wake myself up for class, and not someone banging vigorously at my door for 5 full minutes, relieves me and worries me a little.”

Finally, Leon also touched on her choices for summer fashion and music, saying that she is excited to wear crop tops and “walking around with no pants on and it being ok.”
