so,
I love this photograph. And I’m lying in bed procrastinating getting ready for a party tonight, because it just feels so great to bum around when there’s a thunderstorm outside your window. And I don’t know what I want to wear. I have the urge to give away everything that’s currently in my closet and start fresh, but I think I’ll resist. And I’m currently...

I got a tan! I had forgotten what I looked like with a tan. So now I am a bronze goddess (har har) with a slight sunburn — thank you, summertime.
I am so thankful for this past week. I got to spend seven wonderful days with my family and boyfriend, cruising along the Western Caribbean. Our cruise stopped at four different ports: in Grand Cayman B.W.I., Belize, Isla de Roatan, Honduras,...
winner?
super exhausted in the most amazing way from my cruise, so this is going to be short — I WON SOMETHING! I mindlessly entered a contest held by adored austin before I left town, and while on the cruise ship I received a facebook message I just had to read (screw international rates, right?). THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

And of course, my thought process went a little like this:
1) I love the simplicity of this outfit 2) I wish the weather was mild enough in FL so I could get away with wearing a jean jacket & actually not pass out from a heat stroke 3) Those strappy wedges are...

Those two things have NOTHING to do with each other besides the fact that I was a concoction of them the past few days. I always have fun dressing up… I always have. Before I had any dime to do so I would be on a constant cycle of recycling my clothes. I would wear the treasures I had found from…

He’s left it up to me to come up with some ideas, as he’s been quite busy this summer, and we’re definitely on a budget, so I’m going to start an inspiration board on here to gather my...

Apparently, the reason I have not received my letter for the nursing program is because I am one of about thirty students with a really high GPA…who are on a waiting list IN CASE other people reject the program. My GPA is a 3.7…the highest GPA that got in was a 3.75.
If I had gotten an A in…
Crossing my fingers that you’ll get in! <3
OP for Walmart
I absolutely love finding fashionable (and cheap) items in unexpected places. So, when browsing the internet, I stumbled upon OP’s line of bathing suits for Walmart & was intrigued. My thought process went a little like this: a) EW, Walmart b) Meh, well the Miley Cyrus & Max Azria line ain’t too shabby c) The official OP website made their suits look good and d) Maybe I should...

The last couple of weeks have just been so dang hard. I suppose throughout life you’re bound to have your ups & downs, but lately I just feel as though I’ve been bombarded with negatives…
So, last week Thursday, July 1st, A & I’s little one, Kymani, was struck by a car and was killed. It still seems so unreal that it even happened. It feels like just yesterday that...
