July Recap in Pictures + a Video
I've returned home from vacation which means summer for me is just about over. July was busy though! Between internship events, birthday celebrations, and family vacation it seems like every single moment so far has been scheduled down to the very second. Despite the hectic month, it was a full of laughter and love, which is all I can ever ask for when I'm with my family and friends. I've gotten much better at stopping and taking pictures of beautiful or intrersting places an

May Wishlist
May gives us a green light to shop all things summer. When it comes to summer shopping, I like to include all styles and silhouettes. I know sometimes sweaters and pants can get a little stuffy during the warmer months, but if styled properly I think they can give a unique and personal style to any wardrobe despite the high temperatures. This May, I'm planning on adding unique colors and prints to my closet. Right now, I am loving beautiful shades of green. It adds an energet

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

November Wishlist
A week in and it's already all Christmas music and holiday commercials. As much as I love seeing so many gift guides already published on several of my favorite blogs, I'm not quiiiite there yet. That being said, I do want to share a few of the things on my wish list this month. November is a month of saving, saving, saving. Although easier said than done, I really need to keep an eye on my savings because with the holidays coming up, there just isn't too much money to spend

Three "Put Together" Casual Outfits
I rarely wear jeans unless I have to. A big part of it is because I walk all over campus every day of the week and leggings are just more comfortable and I can walk faster in them. They're easy to move in and I like them much better at seven in the morning too when I'm getting dressed. That being said, I like looking put together when I'm wearing leggings because even if I'm casual, it doesn't mean I can't be presentable. After all, throughout my day I'm in classes, working a

4 Easy Costumes for Halloween
We're halfway through October which means Halloween is quickly approaching. I'll be the first to admit that I don't love Halloween. Aside from seeing cute kids asking me for candy on my parents' doorstep, the holiday isn't something I look forward to like many of my friends. Being in college though means that Halloween is basically a weekend long party and a rotating wardrobe of costumes is pretty much necessary. I don't subscribe to insane body and face makeup or wearing pra

Forget the Rules
Forget what you've heard, you can wear white jeans past Labor Day. I know it seems like traditional fashion exiles those who style white post Labor Day but modern fashion appreciates, accepts and sometimes even encourages it. After all, we love a good winter white outfits and apparently, so does Vogue. Styling a summery white outfit after the first week of September can seem a little daunting after classic styles told us time and time again that it was a big no-no, but when d

On the Eve of Junior Year
And just like that, summer's gone. Four months flew by in the blink of an eye and now I find myself sitting here at 11:07 pm on the eve of my junior year of college. In just 8 hours my alarm will sound and I'll wake up and catch the bus and start my third year of school and oh my gosh, am I excited! I'm in the minority of students who absolutely love school. Every thing about getting back to a schedule, eating in a dining hall and turning in assignments is something that I do

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

Weekly Skinny: July 26th
It's been a while since I shared my weekly favorites and they've been piling up on my notes in my phone for several weeks now and I'm finally getting around to sharing them with you. These past few weeks have been an absolute blast filled with both busy days on vacation and also busy days sitting at my desk getting work done. I started working on several really exciting projects, both concerning the blog, that eventually you will hear about. Once includes an insane giveaway t
