What's Been Going on Lately


Happy Sunday morning, friends! I apologize for only getting one post up this week, so I wanted to pop in today to share a little bit of what has been going on in my life lately to explain the absence around here. I hate to make excuses for my content and why lately it has failed to meet the quality standards you all deserve, and even occasionally, like this week, fails to go up at all. It's not that I have a million things going on in my life right now, because frankly I really don't, I'm not that busy, and my classes are not as hard as they have been in other semesters. Rather, somewhere in me the motivation is lacking, and for a lack of a better phrase, I've just found it really hard to get my sh!t together these last few weeks.

Spring Dress Round-Up




Being in college, I always forget how many new dresses I used to "need" each spring in high school. Last year I went to my fair share of date parties and formals being in a sorority and having a handful of guy friends in fraternities, but it's not really the same when you live in a dorm and have 30 sorority sisters with dresses to borrow at a moment's notice! This year I am in the market for a pretty dress to wear in London on Easter Sunday, but I've already started getting a few questions from girls looking for prom dresses, wedding guest dresses (jealous!) and other fun events coming this spring. Although this round-up of dresses is majority geared towards Easter frocks, I plan to do another installment of dresses suitable for prom or fancier events later this week or next!

This Week's Top 10


1. I had an extremely low-key week, and I'm kind of okay with it. I was recovering all week from how sick I got in New York, so I broke my New Year's goal to workout and skipped everyday... oops. There's always next week though!

2. On a similar note, I rarely talk about body positivity on the blog, but it's something I've wanted to include more of since fitness has become a larger focus around here. If you missed it, I shared an exciting campaign I'll be working on for the next few months yesterday on Instagram.

3. I just ordered this camel coat yesterday for London, and it's an amazing deal if you're looking for a classic coat to transition you into spring! It also comes in a gorgeous baby blue and pale pink.

Resort/Spring Shopping: Volume I




London is no Miami, but I'm not complaining. I spent last year in Miami for half of my spring break, and if you remember how bad my sunburn was, you'll be very understanding why I'm not too upset about skipping out on the beach break scene this time around. I'm not necessarily bikini-bod ready anyways, so this trip to cooler temps is looking better and better everyday. Nonetheless, springtime is always fun to explore all that newly available resort wear. Today I'm sharing a few pieces I've fallen in love with recently if you're heading somewhere warmer anytime soon.

Ear Party Inspiration




For the last couple of months I have really been itching to get more ear piercings. When I was a senior in high school, one of my close friends gave me a double piercing when we were all hanging out having a girls night. I ended up letting it close a few months later because I didn't like the position of the piercing, but lately I have been thinking more and more seriously about not only repiercing my double, but doing triple or quadruple piercings on my left ear!
