grow where you are planted
I live in the middle of nowhere so shopping for me is only really practical when it’s done online. I’m a huge fan of amazon and thought it would be a great time to try out some fashion I found on the site, was was too afraid to purchase because it was so inexpensive! I’ve
It snowed for the first time this year yesterday and every time it snows I’m like a little kid. I bring out the hot cocoa, make snowmen and I take a zillion pictures. This semester has been a weird one for me, and in celebration of almost being done and the beautiful snow we have,
Recently I brought out my cello again after a hiatus playing for a few years. I signed up for a class at my University so that I could fulfill the one credit I needed to become a full time student so that my scholarship would kick in. It was the best decision I have made
I fell in love with this lace dress from Target and it’s less than $30 but it looks so fancy! I also found a discount code for 25% off (XHILSAVE), so follow the link and shop your heart out! It’s beautiful! I love purple and for some reason it’s only available certain times a year,
This past week, Hurricane Irma took out most of the power and tons of trees in our area. Internet has been pretty much nonexistent, and school was cancelled almost all week for me, and all week for Rhett. It has been really hard trying to juggle school, with two tests, and trying to find care
Recently I bought this dress from from my favorite store Target with full intention of transitioning it into Fall. The best and easiest way to transition without all the accessories, is to start with one. I like to start with booties, because they’re stylish no matter what you wear, and they tend to be comfortable
I’ve started getting thins ready for fall! The crisp mornings here in the mountains have already started which means, fall is just around the corner. So I decided some transitional pieces was just what my wardrobe needed, and in greeeen. Anyone else having a slight love affair with green lately? Pantone was on the money
School break started a few weeks ago, and in case you’re wondering what I’m up to, it is indeed one of the following: catching up on all the reading I’m supposed to be doing (sorry Potato Book Club), getting that website done for my doctor (sorry Dr. Dalton), and then there’s prancing around my yard
I pass this really neat junkyard full of painted school buses all the time on my way to school and I’ve been dreaming about when I could go and take some pictures. My three year old, Rhett, loves cars more than anything in the world, so I could not wait to take him here! I
I happened to stumble across a beautiful bamboo forest while out taking pictures today and I couldn’t be happier. This gorgeous landscape is just down the street from where I live! I had never been down this particular street before, and just was going to turn around. Some days I like to drive around and
Today one of my favorite stores, Dress Up starts their Back to School sale, so I thought I would do a post so you can take advantage of their killer sale 😉 I fell in love with this beautiful and romantic flowery top because you can wear it so many ways! Pair this shirt with
This dress by Lovers + Friends and its the perfect dress to attend a wedding. It’s classy, beautifully colored and has such gorgeous details throughout. The lace flowers and partial see-through parts are my favorite little details. The full coverage top and sleeve caps makes it so that it’s both sexy and elegant, and perfectly
Nothing like rows of gigantic sunflowers to brighten your summer day. Lucky for us, Rhett and I planned on having a lot of sunflowers this year and planted them forever ago. They are HUGE! How tall do these normal grow?! I have never seen sunflowers grow so big! The blue gingham dress if from Target
Fell in LOVE with this Cheri Jumpsuit from Amanda Uprichard! It’s so classy and timeless. You can wear it all summer and layer it into fall easily, and the black and red would go great in any season. It’s seriously beautiful. It’s business savvy, all the while still being chic enough for a European vacation
It’s still summertime which means summer fashions are still in full swing, which I’m 100% on board for. It also means that if you planted sunflowers around 90 days ago, they should be popping up everywhere right about now too! Rhett and I planted two full packets of mammoth sunflowers all around our yard and they
J.O.A. is a brand I’ve been following for a while now. I love their chic designs: they’re both classy and sexy with a strong design concept. When I stumbled across this number at Target, I couldn’t believe it. They had just one set in my size and I fell instantly in love. They have made
I love this time of year. It’s full of flowers, sunshine and lazy days. I love doing everything in dresses. Now I can fill my wardrobe with flowery prints and feel so romantic while doing my chemistry homework. 😉 This gorgeoous blue maxi currently sold out online, but, I’ll let you in on a secret:
This summer I’m taking classes right next to Target, which is usually over an hour away from me, so I’ve been basking in all things Target! Classes have been a bit overwhelming so far, so I think I found a sweet spot of school and life ratio (we hope), so I’m hoping to post a
There’s a new lavender farm in Cleveland, Georgia that is going to have their very first Lavender Festival next weekend, June 17: Lavender Lamb Farm. So, naturally, I took Rhett today so that we can go through the fields to check it all out. Rhett had so much fun going through the fields, looking at
Today I decided to check out one of my favorite places in North Georgia this time of year: Full Bloom Nursery located in Clermont, GA. I love going at the end of may/beginning of June because they often have great sales and they still have beautiful plants left. Yesterday started their Summer Sale, and today
My bestie Angela is here for my birthday so I booked us a super-awesome wine getaway with Vip Southern Tours for our tasting here in the North Georgia Mountains. If you ever have the chance to visit the North Georgia mountains, you are in for a treat. Not only is it the trailhead for the
Recently Jordan and I had planned to go jump out of a plane together, because neither of us had ever attempted it before and because it’s one of those things that sits in the back of your mind telling you maybe someday you’ll try it. Now, I’ve let a lot of somedays escape in the
Dresses at Target are currently buy one get one 50% off, so I thought this would be a perfect time to tell you about a dress I recently got there, and I’ve already received a ton of compliments for: Womens Embroidered Maxi Dress I wore this dress through the airport from Mexico to the US
Recently I went on a vacation to Tulum, Mexico with my best friend, Jessica. We’re both moms are wanted a soulful beach escape to focus on things we can’t focus on with little ones: uninterrupted yoga and finishing our meals all by ourselves, sitting down, while it’s still hot. Oh the luxury. We knew we
There is nothing like doing a little soul-searching on the beautiful coast in Tulum, Mexico. You’d be hard pressed to find a hotel not offering various forms of yoga, or thoughtfully sourced food. Hotels in Tulum are thus, both experiences and escapes, giving room for spiritual and physical growth and clarity, inspiration and refuge. In preparation
I just finished my last final today! I finally had some time to be a little creative with some ideas that I have been wanting to work on. Today was my rainy flower crown day on the river. If you are here to see what surprise happened, it’s at the very end, so don’t peek! I
I’m just finishing up finals and am so ready for vacation! I love the art of flat lay photography, and thought I’d try my hand at it with some vacation looks, starting with this one! Where are you going for vacation this year? Here’s the break down of where you can get (almost) everything for
