Ok, so I know I haven't posted in like, FOREVER, but I found this amazing website today, and I just HAD to post about it!
It is called Cotton On, and the shop has the cutest stuff ever.
Honestly, I didn't look much at their clothes because they were a little pricey for me, but their sale options were pretty great.
I spent about an hour and a half looking at their Typo brand though.
They carry everything: greeting cards, wrapping paper, pillows, figurines, journals, pens, stamps, clocks, etc.
They had all kinds of little trinkets that left me intrigued and $50.00 in the hole:P
My favorite finds were probably this darling poster with a mug that matches. Such a beautiful print!
I can't wait to get my haul in so I can testify to how nifty and beautiful all of the items are!
Miss you all, and I hope that all is well!

Hey guys!
I know it has been awhile since I've posted on this blog, but my life has been complete and utter chaos lately.
I won't get into details:P
But anyways, I do have a few posts brewing in my head.
I just DIY-ed a few infinity scarves, went on a couple of thrifting trips, and in three days, I will officially be on winter break from school, so you can look forward to seeing more posts.
With actual, like, fashion and shtuff.
I have missed this blog.
But hopefully I can nourish it back to life with some cozy sweaters, scarves, and Christmas treats:)

I truly miss blogging.
I have lost my inspiration lately. I've been in such a funk with my classes, work, my anxiety problem, just everything.
I'm starting to get back to my old self, but I'm still in the process. Hopefully, within the next week or so, I will get back to blogging regularly.
Hopefully I will get back to crafting and DIY-ing and fashion and all the fun stuff I used to do.
I suppose only time will tell.

These last couple of weeks have been rough.
Taking a trip this weekend.
Promise to start blogging regularly again next week once things smooth out.
Love and miss you all!

I am me. I'm not anybody else.
I get to choose what is right for me, and I am good enough to keep going and be strong no matter where those choices take me.
And I really need to start reminding myself of that every day, because it has been causing me anxiety lately.
My life is going to be amazing as long as I do what I feel is right, and that is all that matters.
I've been letting myself get caught up on what I "should" be doing and how I "should" be feeling at this time in my life, but I am the one who gets to decide what I should do and who I should be.
I mean, sure, everybody has faults that they could work on....I definitely have a few of those.
But who knows what life holds in store for me? I sure don't. But I would like to find out how great of a life I can have by trying to be the happiest me I can be every single day.
I have decided that, from now on, I am going to put myself first when I'm making decisions. To most, that would sound selfish, but I feel like at this point in my life I almost HAVE to be a little bit selfish.
I need to follow my own path.
If that means moving away, so be it.
If that means staying here, so be it.
The one thing I do know for sure is that I am me.
And I will sparkle no matter what life throws at me.
Live, Love, and Let it Sparkle,

Yesterday, Ryan and I went on yet another double date with Grace and Tanner. We went to Edward's Apple Orchard (as you can see), and it was oh so fun:)
We all got apple cider and apple cider donuts (so good), and went on a little carriage ride through the orchard! The weather was perfect, and it was a really good time! Plus, I got to put on a cute outfit!:)
I wore my hair in a messy bun, dangly feather earrings, a chambray shirt, black skinny jeans, and matching brown boots and a belt. Perfect fall outfit:)
After the apple orchard, we all went to Olive Garden to celebrate Tanner's birthday (which isn't until Monday, but oh well). We all got massive amounts of food, and it was wonderful!
Oh, and I just have to show you guys the adorable pictures of Ryan and the little boy I babysit from when he babysat with me on Thursday night. They are absolutely precious<3
Adorable, right?:)
Anyway, I hope you all have a great weekend!
Enjoy this fall weather and break out your scarves and boots!:)

Today I decided that I would do something special for my wonderful boyfriend, Ryan, because we have been super busy and stressed lately, and we haven't had much time for fun.
So, naturally, I turned to Pinterest.
I decided that I would make him dinner, and dress up a little bit.
I found this recipe for Teriyaki Chicken, one of Ry's faves, on Pinterest.
It was SO easy to make, and super duper yummy! I will definitely be making it again.
Unfortunately, I forgot to get a picture of my outfit (I seem to do that a lot), but I wore an adorable floral dress and black, patent leather heels with precious little bows on the top. My hair was straightened and oh so long!
Anyways, Ry LOVED his surprise, and after dinner, we went to a couple stores, including the hilarious pop-up Halloween store nearest us, which was SO fun!
He also bought us an ENTIRE cake for dessert!
Gotta love him:)
