Hey all!

It is officially September. I have broken out my fall candles/sprays and even ordered a new blanket scarf. Even though it's still in the 90s here in AZ and probably won't be cooling down until end of October, it doesn't mean I can't cheat the system! Even though it is still rather hot here I usually cheat and wear summer items with my fall items until I can fully transition into cardigans, boots, and sweaters. Here are just a few tips I find helpful:

Back-To-Campus Look

Hey all!

I have already put up my back to school backpack essentials a few weeks ago. Which is super close to what I have in my backpack this year.  But I decided to do a back to campus look of what I normally wear to my classes. Plus showing off my backpack! I was planning on doing a flatlay of all my items but decided not to since you guys already know from the other post what I have. If you want me to go over what I have in my backpack then I totally can just comment below!

School starts on Monday for me! I am excited for this year to start with my new adult job and my last year and semester of school left. I think everyone their senior year or last stretch they are just ready to already graduate. Which is totally me right now, I am so ready to be done and out in the world with a degree!

Anyway, so usually when I am on campus I wear a college t-shirt and jeans/shorts and birkenstocks. Since I am sitting for so long I just want to be comfy. But for this post, I usually wear something a little nicer now since I am coming and going from my job. I opt for a bralette and a cotton tee that has some time of criss crosses on it. With some distressed jeans, these light wash with distressed cuffs is my favorite. I have these rose gold birks and then my initial necklace.

Hope you enjoy!

Hey all!

I realized I never got the chance to talk about my Spring Break trip with my best friend!

A few weeks ago I got the chance to take a trip with one of my close friends since high school. We went for two days and the first day was spent driving. Which wasn't that bad at all. We had a few wrong directions but that's okay because it was an adventure! We listened to some classic songs from the late 80s-early 00s. Once we got there and checked in we immediately got into our suits and went to the beach before it got dark.


It was super peaceful and we brought a small speaker to play some music, brought a few books, and prayed the birds wouldn't poop on us. Later that night we went to get dinner and drinks at Yard House and just walked around.

The next day we got up early for breakfast and headed down for a longer day at Mission Beach. That water was FREEZING. I don't recommend getting in it in March because my friend and I couldn't feel our bodies. I also always burn so I put on a ton of sunscreen and even reapplied and guess who still got burned? ME! We then went and dried off and decided to walk around and looked at the boardwalk and I ended up getting a shirt and a few things for some friends. We saw this huge waffle cone store and ended up getting some ice cream.

After that, we decided to drive/walk around and look for a place to eat. Went to this place called Duck Dives (love the name) and tried some fun foods. It was an open front bar and had a cool atmosphere. Then that was the last thing we did and started making the long trek home.

Overall we had such an amazing bonding experience and just an incredible time. It was fun to get away for a few days and relax. I put all the info from my outfits and items I am wearing down below. If I didn't list something go ahead and comment and I can tell you! I will be doing two posts soon on a swimsuit look and of the outfit I wore out with a better quality camera!

I hope you enjoyed!

Thankful For...

Hey all!

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I had such an amazing time with family and it was incredibly too short. My boyfriend came to visit my family and I and we had a great time. He met some of my best friends we saw Moana and it was SO GOOD. I loved it so much I had to get the soundtrack and the Pentatonix Christmas album as well. My family and I already finished decorating our house with the christmas tree and lights and decor around the whole house.

Then my sister, boyfriend, best friend, and I all went Black Friday shopping.  I finished my Christmas shopping and we got Dutch Bros which I have never had it before. We then went to this retro breakfast place and it was such good food and I actually ran into an old friend while we were out. Then a few days later I went and saw Hacksaw Ridge with one of my other friends and it made me soooo emotional it was so good but we needed something funny after something so heartbreaking so we went back to her house to watch Bad Moms. Finally I went with my boyfriend to his family's house and they made homemade tamales. They were all really nice people and I had a great time. I had a great time all break and enjoyed the time with family and friends.

This outfit is so comfortable. I love the neutrals and how my hat just pops out and makes the whole outfit. I love this skirt and it is just so comfortable and soft. I had to add in my scarf with the hat so it would make everything flow. Finally having a few bracelets, add my cliche Starbucks cup, and fringe booties. If you're wondering what my favorite drink is at the moment it is the Caramel Brulee Late. TRY IT!

I hope you enjoyed this outfit!

Cold Shoulder Tops ft. Lovesick

Hey all,

Thank goodness it is Friday finally!! I hope you guys had a great Halloween. I went with friends to raise awareness for UNICEF and I dressed as Jess from New Girl. I had a great time and we got free donuts! The rest of my week has been really long and I had so many exams and tests happening. I am so ready for a break and for colder weather. It is finally under 85 degrees and getting cooler.


I am sad Halloween is over but we are so close to Thanksgiving and Christmas I can hardly stand it! If you didn't know already those are my favorite holiday's just because of all the time I get to spend with my family and the weather and the layering. So this will hopefully be my last post of me transitioning clothing and it will finally be cool enough for me to layer and do fall outfits!

I love this cold shoulder top from Lovesick. I love how they look on my shoulders. Especially if you are self conscious and don't like tank tops then this is a great happy middle for you. I also have been loving ripped jeans but these ones the holes just keep getting bigger and bigger so that's the only downside. Then I paired some neutrals with it and just love this outfit! Perfect transition into fall!

Enjoy!

White & Pink Accents

Hey all,

I hope you are having a fabulous weekend! I went home this weekend to celebrate my grandma's 80th birthday. We went to this seafood place called Peppadeaux's and it was sooooo good. I got this scallops sweat pea risotto and my sister got this crab mac n cheese and it was delicious. Then today my mom and my sister, and I went to get mani/pedi's and we gave my sister her birthday gift early since we wont see her on her real birthday.


I promise to do some more fall outfit's soon. I have a clothing haul coming in and have so many ideas for outfits. I am also going to a pumpkin patch FINALLY and taking some photo's so I promise those cliche photos are coming!

I have seen these flats, or style of flats, that are lace ups that have those gold aglets at the end of the laces. I am living for that trend and I really wanted some that I could really walk around in for work or presentations. I saw a photo recently that was wearing white on white and I loved it. So I decided to recreate it and add my pink cluster necklace and these flats!

I hope you enjoy!

Am I Hip Yet ft. Lovesick

Hey all!

I am back from my little family vacay. I thought I could post while I was at the lake but it turns out I had no wifi! Whoops! So here I am a week late with this post but that's okay just means I have to catch you up on life!

Copycat Wednesday ft. Lovesick

Hey all!

I hope you had a great holiday! I went and visited one of my friends and we watched movies, ate sushi and had grilled cheese at midnight. We went downtown with the top down in my car and went to go look at fireworks but there wasn't really much to see so we ended up going back to her apartment and watched Grey's Anatomy.
