Sunny Inspiration!

Yellow is the happiest color of all!  I love wearing yellow in any season! Especially if it's yellow with navy!  Yellow never fails to make me happy and always reminds me of the Sun!

The Sun is marvelous! It would take 1.3 million Earth Sized objects to fill the volume of the Sun!  Now that is hard to fathom!  When trying to think of something bigger than the sun, only one idea comes to mind…our God!

Without God, there would be no Sun. What the Sun is to nature, is what God is to us.

The Sun is the center and the beauty of the Solar system.  Any beauty we have is all because of God!

The Sun illuminates the solar system and lights the path we walk.  God is our light as He lights and directs our paths!

The Sun is of great power!  Our God created that massive power!

The Sun is ever the same as it has faithfully performed it's duty.  God is the same yesterday, today, and forever!

This makes me feel secure knowing that God is bigger than the Sun and the whole Universe!  Nothing is too big for our God! I am going to carry these thoughts with me as I start this new week :)

Happy Monday, everyone :)

A Pop of Color!

Why not add a pop of color to your Sunday Best?  Or to any day's look?  A pop of color can light up a room…or outfit!  Happy Sunday!

When It Rains, Make It Shine!

I have already experienced a few rainy mornings of walking campus.  When it rains, why not make it shine?  This can easily be done with the right rain gear.  

Rain Bows Jacket // Hunter Boots in Cafe Latte // Rain Boot Charm // Tory Burch Mini Umbrella // Umbrella Necklace // Pup Rain Jacket

I just purchased my first pair of Hunter Rain Boots in the Cafe Latte color and am SO excited to wear them for Fall!  This whole look will have you actually excited for the rain!  Why not have your pup looking spiffy in the rain as well? If it rains, you might as well make the best of it.

Favorites Friday!

Hello and Happy Friday! With the first week of school being over, this weekend is much needed. I am so excited it's Friday! Here are a few of my favorite things to share on my favorite day of the week.

Lilly Pulitzer Somerset Dress in True Navy!  I purchased this dress in four different patterns for Spring and enjoyed them so much while the weather was a little on the cool side.  The sleeve length is perfect for this time of year also, and the ruffle makes it too precious. I just purchased this dress in true navy and can't wait to wear it with a Murfee scarf and Revas. Cowboy boots would also be a nice touch! This is a great transition piece!

Here is a color by O.P.I that I'm loving for this time of year.  "Did You 'Ear About Van Gogh" goes with so much and looks perfect with a light coat of sparkle added on top of it.

I so enjoy this Beaded Hair Clip from Anthropologie.  The one I have is similar to this one since I purchased it last year, but Anthro keeps coming out with these clips and tweaking the style just a bit. They are lovely and make the perfect hair accent.  This clip comes in several colors and styles.

Here's a few of my favorites put together into a favorite look!

I hope you enjoyed this addition of Favorites Friday and were able to add my favorites to your favorites list! Have a great weekend!

Decor To Die For!

Happy Thursday everyone!! I am so happy it is Thursday!  My one lab that I have on Fridays is canceled for this week, so after my classes today, I can start my weekend :) Jumping into a fast paced schedule this week has me longing for a few days off! 

 Today I am going to share a little bit of home decor that is seriously to die for!  I came across this cute Etsy store, bedbuggs, and just can't wait to use items like this in my home someday.  These would be perfect for a dorm, a little girl's room, your room, a sunroom, and more so much!

Black/White Canvas with Pink Bow

Black/White polkadot Pillow with Yellow Flower

Chevron Canvas with Yellow Flower

Chevron Pillow with Coral Flower

Pink Polkadot Pillow with Bow

I just love these so much!! The colors, patterns, and over all designs are perfect!

Have a fantastic Thursday and Stay Tuned!

Lilly Sale Loves!

Shift Dress Pillows // Knotty Bangles // McKim Sandals // Picnic Basket // Shift Dress Glasses Case // Straw Hat // Clothes Hangers // Picture Perfect Wedges

Through all the technical issues Lilly had, the sale was marvelous!  There were some great prices on the apparel, but I had too much fun with the accessories section!  What I loved about it the most were the fun gifts, such as the shift pillows (I couldn't resist them and bought 5), the clothes hangers, picnic basket, sun hat, and glasses case.  I was so happy to see the beloved Knotty Bangles on sale, and bought 3 others to wear with my navy bangle.  The shoes were a steal as well.

What goodies did you pick up through the super Lilly sale? :)

Bauble Bliss!

Here are some bauble sets I'm loving! I think my Fall wardrobe will consist of 

many sets like these.

Tripple layer Gold Bauble // Drop Earrings


Frame of Mind Necklace // Chandelier Earrings

J.Crew Bubble Necklace // Gold Studs

Amborella Necklace // Anchusa Drops 

Maize Wood Necklace // Black Drop Earrings 

Etsy Bubble Necklace  by ShopBlueBirdBride // Bracelet

While you're finding baubles for yourself, why not invest in some baubles for your posh pup as well?

This Crystal Fairy Floral Bauble is one I recently purchased for Jaycee.  I ordered the Summer (photo on top) color scheme for her because I felt these were more her colors.

Is this not fabulous??  The Glam Pop Necklace by Loius Dog will have your FurBaby feeling gorgeous!

Would you be able to coordinate these baubles into your Fall wardrobe?

Preppy Steps!

Buying myself my first pair of Jacks became an addiction for me.  Every prep will tell you how essential it is to own a pair of Jacks!  Not only are they a Preppy icon, but they are a comfortable, fun, feel-good kind of shoe!! I can always count on my Jacks to complete my outfits and give me a cheery feeling :)

 This photo was taken for the Jack Rogers Girl of the Moment contest.  I love the vibrant colors, the shoes, and of course my sweet Jaycee.

Although I love each and every pair, I do have a few favorites!

1. Silver Glitter Navajos
2. Lime with Aqua Trim Navajos  - These are first on my list to purchase next summer.
3. Pink with Lime Trim Navajos  - I would do anything to own this pair, but have only seen them in narrow sizes.  Miss Janice owns this pair and wears them fabulously!  
4. Gold with Silver Trim  - My Mama's favorite pair she owns and graciously shares with me.
5. Pink with Light Blue Multi Leather  - Also one of my favorites and on my next to purchase list.
6. Lime with Gold Trim - I love wearing these with my Pink and Green Lilly pieces 
7. Gold with Gold Trim - Definitely my most worn pair…they go with so much!
8. Now for my very favorite pair...

Light Pink with Hot Pink Trim - My very favorite, most loved pair of Jacks!  Oh they make me so happy :)

I just love all my Jacks!!  I can always count on Jack Rogers to give me a Preppy Step :)

Jaycee really wants a pair too!!  Maybe I can find some for my Furbaby :)

Prepping For School!

Summer is sadly coming to an end which means I am about to start the first semester of my Sophomore year of college.  School starting back is a depressing thought, but it can easily be transformed into a more pleasant thought with the right accessories!  Yes, preppy, posh outfits are a way to brighten any class, but there is always a need for cute supplies!  It is so easy to make your whole outlook preppy by adding preppy items such as these!

Lunch Tote // Planner // Pencils // Tumbler // Highlighters // Calculator // Tote Bag // ID Wristlet


There are several other supplies that I have and want, so that my classes and studying will be a more pleasant experience :)

I have had SO much fun with these cute pencils from anthropologie! I've had this set for a few years, and ended up sharing them with my friends. This is the third year in a row Anthro has sold these, so I'm guessing they're a favorite for everyone else as well :)

Yes, a monogrammed notebook would make my note taking experience more cheery :) 

I'm obsessing over this Tulle Backpack!!

 

I will definitely be using my Bowtastic paperclips this semester!!  I'm always marking my notes and my reading. These will be perfect and are so fun to make! You can see my post on them Here. 

Is this pocket blackboard not adorable?? I would love this! I'm always jotting down quick thoughts and reminders.  

What girl doesn't need a pink USB cord??

These items get me excited for the new semester, along with thoughts of Fall clothing and the cool, crisp weather!  How are you Prepping for your classes??
