I'm changing things up around here this week. I realize that I've kind of outgrown the Links to Love idea, mostly because I feel like it's not just links I'm posting. I'm sharing updates, both life & blog, I'm talking about random things, the posts I shared on the blog today and the links I…
If you follow me on Instagram you know which planner I already chose. If you've been reading this blog for the past 4 years, you know which planner I chose. This year, I thought I'd switch things up, which didn't work for me last year or the year before. When I saw that Ban.do released their new and impro…
People say to never judge a book by it's cover but I have to admit, that I do it often. If a book has an intriguing cover and it sparks my interest, I need to read it. If the summary matches my interest, then it's a sealed deal. That is exactly what happened with Opening Belle. I saw the cover on Amazon and a…
As I've stated in the past, I'm very much into skincare lately and have tried a bunch of different brands and products. There are definitely some products that haven't worked and some that truly have. I've discovered what my skin needs and what it doesn't like. I have dry, sensitive skin and my ski…
What a week! It's been very long, very tiring but well worth it. I finally made the big move (granted I'm still living with my mom, but it was still a big move!) Tuesday was a wild day; the movers came in like wild animals and just took care of the apartment within two hours. It was insane to watch them clear …
Tomorrow is finally it... moving day! I've been talking it to death since April but I'm so happy it's finally here. I'll have my own room again, my little oasis, and decorate it however I please. It's going to be the epitome of an Instagram/Pinterest worthy bedroom. That being said, I know this wee…
It's the 3rd day of the sale and I already shopped it... because I'm an overachiever when it comes to shopping. And I also don't want my favorite must-haves to sell out. Last year was the first time I ever truly shopped the sale and got some staple pieces. I knew this year wouldn't be so different. For…
4 days till moving day! 4 days till I have my own room! 4 days until I can breath in my house because I'll have air conditioning! Can you tell I'm excited? I am PUMPED. I feel like my life will feel whole again, because for the past 2 months I've been beside myself. Moving is not easy; packing is not easy;…
I've been in a real Lilly Pulitzer mood lately. There will be times when I don't even browse the Lilly website and then other times when I am tracking the hashtag on Instagram to find out what new things people are wearing/buying/styling. I can finally afford *some Lilly dresses and I treated myself to one at …
My hair is something that I have a love/hate relationship with. It's very thick, curly, frizzy, and unruly. It has given me a lot of grief over the years; from flat ironing it to a crisp during middle school, to trying to embrace my Carrie Bradshaw like ringlets, to sometimes just throwing my hands in the air &…
I am SO CLOSE to moving day!!! I can almost taste it!! We are a week & a half away from my own room, in a new, nice apartment. It's a good thing too because it's been super duper hot this week and I had to pull my mattress into my mom's room to sleep on the floor. Her room is air conditioned while the …
I was in the market for a new eye cream last month and I had a strong desire to try something new. I didn't want something I've tried before because the beauty junkie in me always wants the latest and greatest. I was searching high & low on Sephora.com for something to entice me and I found it. Fresh is a …
