Lama Sweater/Puffer Vest/Plaid Button Down/Bib Necklace Sweatshirt /Fair Isle/Necklace/Plaid Scarf

J.Crew has some amazzing new pieces on their site. I am crossing my fingers that they will have some of these on sale for Black Friday! I'll be hitting up the outlets, and while I am standing in the freezing cold while waiting in line, I also be checking out some deals on my phone. My favorite app for this right now is Retail Me Not. They have all of the best coupons for Black Friday sales!

Juliana's Boutique is also doing an amazing Black Friday sale! You can even enter to win a $25 gift card on their Facebook and Instagram pages!!

Will you be standing in line or enjoying the warm fire while online shopping?

Vintage Florals

This is one of my favorite dresses to wear for this season. I love how it looks vintage, but it's vibrant colors don't make it look old or dull. 

I added an extra pop of color by wearing these maroon colored tights from Target. 

And of course, is any outfit complete without a fur vest?! I bought mine at Tj Maxx last year, but here is my most recent vest purchase from Juliana's Boutique. 

You can find my monogram necklace here, and my tassel necklace here. 

You may also notice my ahhhmazing handbag. This was gifted from my grandmother. It's a vintage Chanel from the 1920-30s. It is something I will keep forever!

What are your staple pieces for this season?

Lovely Leaves

I had such a great weekend hanging out with friends at Berry College! I decided to have a mini photoshoot with some of the new arrivals from Juliana's Boutique. I love how the Rusted Orange Scarf goes perfect with the leaves. I'm also obsessed with The Valley Vest! It will make such a statement this winter. These pieces will go live tomorrow at 3:30!

Santa Baby (Gifts for Him)

So what do you get your guy if he has everything, or you've only been dating for a few months, or a few years? Checkout my list of suggestions that is in everyone's price range!

Is it just me, or is it 10 times harder to gift shop for guys than it is for girls?! I like to be creative and buy Drew something that he will actually use throughout the year. This will be our sixth Christmas together, and let me tell you... it was not easy coming up with what I wanted to get him (does that make me an awful girlfriend?). 

Another idea is to give him a scrapbook with fun pictures, memories, notes, etc. I've done this for Drew a few times and he loves his. It's something you can both look back on and has sentimental value, which is worth more than a nice watch or shoes. 

Do you have any creative gift ideas for guys?

Current Favorites {For the Holidays}

It's late and I have a test tomorrow. So what am I doing? Blogging, of course! 

I've been thinking about all of the fun holiday events/parties I have coming up, and realized that I have nothing to wear! I also don't want to have to spend a lot of money or be an outfit repeater... 

Here are some ideas from Juliana's Boutique that will keep you stylish this season!

Dear Santa...

1/2/3/4/5/6/7

It's that time of year again where I start day dreaming about what I would love to find under the Christmas tree. Of course, most of my splurge items are no where near a reasonable price range. A girl can still dream, right?

So, realistically speaking, here is my list of reasonably priced items that I would love!

What's on your Christmas list this year?

Lovely Lilly

At a young age, I was introduced to Lilly Pulitzer by my grandmother who had a huge love for the brand. Since then, I have always been fascinated by the bright colors, patterns, and uniqueness of it all. Since I've lived in Georgia, seeing a Lilly print brings me back to my childhood in Naples, Florida and times I spent with my grandmother. 

I am absolutely in LOVE with the new items that launched this week! I've already picked out a few that I would love to wear to my graduation... (hint hint, wink wink). Here are my favorites: 

Cara Dress

Margurite Caftan

Marielle Sweater

And my very favorite...

Thompson Shift

Anyone else dying over the new Lilly?

Dream Job Come True

Happy Thursday!

Today I wanted to share with you an exciting project that I have had the honor to be apart of. Juliana's Boutique is a new online clothing store that offers amazing pieces at the best prices (seriously, so much more affordable than other boutiques). Last weekend I was the stylist (dream job) for their inventory and lifestyle photo shoots. It was SO much fun! 

Seriously, how amazing are the pieces?! Picking out the clothing and seeing them modeled (by the most beautiful girls ever) was a major proud moment for myself. 

And the best part: you can get 10% off by using my coupon code WINTER1056

Fallen Leaves

Happy Wednesday!

 

Now that is November, fall is finally making an appearance! I couldn't help but pull out my J Crew puffer vest and truly get into the spirit. Leaves on the ground, crisp mornings, constant trips to Starbucks... I love this time of the year. 

Stay tuned for my next post where I will feature the newest boutique, Juliana's! They just launched their website TODAY! I.Want.Everything. 

Until next time!

DIY: Candy Crush Costume

Happy (very belated) Halloween!

I'm probably a little too hyped up on candy right now, but what else is new?! 

I am a firm believer in not paying ridiculous amounts of money for a Halloween costume. Instead, I like to craft my own, and take things from my closet.

This year I figured what better thing to be than my alter ego, a Candy Crush Addict.

What You'll Need:

Plain Black Shirt

Fabric Glue

Plastic Baggies 

Candy Printables
Actual Candy
Cheap Headband
Hot Glue Gun

Step One: Print and cut as many candies out as you want 

Step Two: Glue candies to black shirt with fabric glue

Step Three: Select a few candies to be covered in the "jelly" by using the plastic baggies

Step Four: Glue plastic baggies over the candies

Step Five: Let the shirt sit over night
Step Six: For the headband, simply hot glue the pieces of the actual candy

Step Seven: SUGAR CRUSH!

I paired my shirt with a simple black skirt, tights, and fun heels. You can wear this just about anytime of the year, to show your true dedication to CC.
