Black and White in Spring
It's skirt season! I almost never wear skirts or dresses before April and now I can finally style my favorite minis for the spring. This cute look is brought to you today courtesy of NA-KD fashion! They supplied me with this cute as ever Levi's distressed black denim skirt. I styled this skirt with my white flutter-sleeve blouse from J. Crew. Sadly, this top is from two summers ago, but I linked a few other down below! I love the contrast of black and white, even in the sprin

Best of The Brands: April
Spring fashion is here!! When it comes to dressing for the springtime, I try to keep things on the simple side. There's no need to excessive layering when the weather is warm and the sun is out. I think you can show off you personality with a unique pair of jeans or shorts and a cute blouse or bodysuit. With a simple outfit, throw on a pair of cute sandals and some fabulous accessories and you'll have a fashionable and trendy look that was pretty effortless to create. Right n

April Showers, Bring May Flowers
Can you believe it?! It's April already and I'm not quite sure how we got here so quickly. I have less than a month left in my junior year. In fact, I enroll in my senior year classes tomorrow morning at 6:30 a.m. and I'm not sure how I feel about it. With the closing out of the semester comes warmer weather and sunnier days. The past week in Virginia has been breezy and beautiful, which has caused me to pull out my shorts and striped tees. This weather is the slight whisper

Weekly Skinny: January 23rd
Like normal, it's been a busy week for me at JMU. This week is all about Student Ambassadors. For those who don't know, I give tours at JMU and we call that organization "Student Ambassadors". This week, all of us older members are welcoming in new members. After four long months of applications and interviews, we narrowed it down to the select few who get to wear the purple polo and we've been celebrating with them all week. On top of the busy evenings of extracurriculars, H

Weekly Skinny: December 12
Back with another weekly skinny during this crazy finals week! Today, I take my first final after turning in a slew of papers and final projects. As a communications major and writing minor, I don't take tests too often so I'm unimaginably nervous. Throughout the semester I've written 25 papers and only taken 6 exams, so needless to say, written finals aren't my strong suit! I'm so excited though because tomorrow I'll be heading home back to Richmond to celebrate Christmas wi

What's in My Shopping Cart
My shopping cart is so full right now with all of the styles I'm loving lately. Although I can't purchase everything in my cart there are several stores hainvg really great sales right now. There are also several stores with new arrivals that you don't want to miss out on. First of all, the Halogen x Atlantic-Pacific collection launched yesterday at Nordstrom and it's already selling out. Also, J. Crew just added a ton of new styles. If you want to find a great sale, there a

Weekly Skinny: October 17th
Currently sitting in a Barnes & Noble café waiting for my Starbucks order - all is right in the world. Did I mention it's also 57 degrees? Fall is here and I am happy! I hope everyone is having a fabulous week so far. With half of the week behind us, I've got nothing but eyes for the weekend. This work week has been particularly busy with midterms and literature review papers to work on. I swear I've stayed up until 2am every night since Saturday, but this is all good stress!

First Pick of the Season
It wasn't fall for more than 12 hours and I was already at the apple orchard with some friends this past weekend. One of my favorite places to visit during fall is the beautiful apple orchard in Broadway, Virginia just 11 miles north of Harrisonburg. This little orchard looks out onto the Blue Ridge mountains and is the perfect backdrop for photoshoots. Not to mention, the apples they grow are absolutely delicious! Today I wanted to share with you a great way to take your fav

Fall Wardrobe Starter Pack
I ran a poll on Instagram yesterday asking if I would make you mad if I started posting about Fall on the blog or if you were ready for changing leaves and cashmere sweaters. Over 75% of Instagram followers said they were ready for Fall, so here we are! If you were in the minority and were still loving summer, sorry this post might not be for you. Bookmark it though for when you're feeling Fallish --it'll come in handy then. These past few months I have really been enhancing

A Day at the Farmers Market
I was driving down to the road the other day, on my way to work when I drove right past the most adorable fruit and vegetable stand. I had never seen it there before and was wondering how on earth I could drive that road every single day and never notice it. The following day, I stopped by to find out it was a new addition to the area. I absolutely loved the aesthetic of the little stand and immediately knew I had to take a few photos there. Richmond is full of quirky little
