I say this every birthday, but I honestly just think life gets a little sweeter with every passing year. Even with a few bumps in the road last year, it was an overall win. So many incredible memories and opportunities. I’m thankful for every single one. My goal for every birthday is to make the…
On My Radar
I spent the weekend celebrating my grandma’s ninetieth birthday in Tampa with almost the entire family. It was fun to catch up with one of my cousins whom I haven’t seen in years and to see my grandma surrounded by her children and friends. (My grandma definitely has more friends than I do, by the way;…
A Great Way to Save on Clothes + A Giveaway
My obsession with thredUP has continued throughout the summer. I’d say it’s a borderline problem right now, but I don’t consider it a bad thing. thredUP is the largest online consignment store where you can find your favorite brands like J.Crew, Lilly Pulitzer, and Kate Spade for up to 90% off retail. Every week or so I pop on to search for my favorite brands to see if I spot something that I love. It’s so much fun because every week there are more items to look through– they add 15,000 new items a day!
My Tricks for Good Habits
Remember when I made it a resolution to “stand up straighter”? Well, I failed miserably at it for more than a year. I gave up at some point during 2016 and figured I’d always be a sloucher. In March, after hurting my neck/shoulder/back while sleeping, my quest for better posture was reinvigorated. I implemented a…
Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale! 🎉 (Updated!)
Good morning friends! Are you guys ready for the Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale?! It starts this morning around 8am-ish. I wanted to pop onto the blog this morning for some last minute tips, and I’ll update this post after the sale goes live too.
This is hands down the best Lilly sale of the year. In fact, they only put their clothes on sale twice a year, so it’s the best way to get discounted prices. The sale can (will?) be insane, as it is every year. Like, insane insane.
The 10 Best Budget-Friendly Recipes for College Students
I rarely cooked meals in college. I had a meal plan all four years (🤷🏻♀️) and despite living in a house one year with a functioning kitchen, I never even tried. I wish I had though! As I read through Louisa’s draft, I thought that not only are these recipes great for college students, they’d…
My Morning Routine
Even though I don’t go into an office every day, my mornings can get a little hectic. Especially when I have a big to-do list for the day, I try to establish a good routine in the morning because it sets me up for a full day of success. Taking the time to start the day…
How to Make Creative Instagram Story Videos
This has turned into my most-asked question in the past few weeks: how do I make my Instagram story videos. If you’ve been following along on Insta, you might have noticed that I’ve been trying to get more creative with what and how I post. Honestly, I try to keep raising the bar regarding post…
On My Radar
I know I may be just a tiny bit biased here, but I think I’m the happiest girl on the planet right now. For a while, I’ve felt like I was chugging along and doing a lot of “behind the scenes” work, which, while necessary, doesn’t always have immediate results. I swear, this week everything…
