FALL IN LOVE WITH FALL

So most of you know.... I'm a SPRING/SUMMER person! I love wearing bright colors and I'm not a huge fan of being cold. But I will say that these past few years fall/winter clothes have been AMAZING. Well I have found the most perfect fall outfit that's affordable! My white vintage embroidered fringe half sleeve blouse from SheIn is the most fabulous thing!!! It's less than $20 and super cute!!! I've worn it these past few weeks with distressed denim shorts and I can't wait to wear it on repeat this fall with those sangria denim leggings or a pair of dark skinny jeans!!! :) The Hue sangria denim leggings are my absolute favorite! They are extremely comfy and they are the perfect pant to wear with any type of shoe!!! It's hard to find a good pair to wear with adorable booties... these pants are perfect for that! Last year I got the olive green color and the black ones!!! Seriously the best denim legging! Did I mention that the pants are under $40?!! Well they are!!! Both my top and my pants combined are under $100!!!

This past week has been crazy so I'm so sorry for the delayed blog post. I have class all day on Tuesdays and I also started my preceptorship. I got put on night shifts! My first nights were this past week! I worked two back to back night shifts and it's safe to say that I'm exhausted! Between class, precepting, paperwork, and school assignments I will have no life for these next few weeks!!! Please bear with me while I finish nursing school... I will try to post as often as possible! Happy Sunday! Hope you all have an excellent week to come!!!

JEKYLL ISLAND - FINAL

Hope you've enjoyed my last two Jekyll Island posts - here is my last!!! Enjoy! :) First off,  I just want to take a second to rave about the carry-on I took on my trip!!! (a picture of me with it is located under Jekyll Island - One) It is one of my favorite purchases from this summer! It's hard to find a quality carry-on that will hold up! It's by Delsey and I can't say enough about how obsessed I am with this luggage! As I mentioned before in my other post, I'm saving up to buy the larger suitcase because I'm just so impressed with the carry-on!!!!

Some of my other favorite travel accessories are my ban.do luggage tag and passport cover!!! I know, I know... I didn't go out of the country, but I just thought I'd share it with you because I'm so obsessed!!! I needed my passport over Christmas Break and I got the most compliments on my passport cover, so I just wanted ya'll to see it because I know ya'll will love it as much as I do!!!

With those travel pieces mentioned above, you are sure to travel in style!!!!

 Taylor and I just loved to walk around the whole area where we were staying because it was so breathtaking! I'm a sucker for oak trees and spanish moss!

  We had talked about renting bikes after walking around the area we were staying... but we didn't end up renting bikes, even though we definitely should of because the bike paths were out of this world!!!! (we thought it was too hot, and we were just being lazy) However, I did convince Taylor that the bike path would be a place for a perfect photo shoot!!! So I did get some images of how beautiful the path was!!!

JEKYLL ISLAND - TWO

I am back in Raleigh and I have so much unpacking to do! Really overwhelmed! I needed a break and decided to do part two of my trip for you guys! :)

Friday we did the tour around Jekyll Island!!!! I took tons of pics and you won't believe it - they are all gone! Just disappeared! I'm really bummed, because I wanted to save those memories forever! :( but oh well, memories from my mind will just have to do! After the tour we just walked around and enjoyed spending time with each other!!! Then we got ready for dinner! We ate at my favorite type of food place - Mexican!!! I'm huge on margaritas and chips and queso! Guilty! The restaurant we ate at was right on the beach and it was called Tortuga Jacks! It was the absolute best! We listened to live music while drinking margs, and stuffing our faces!!! After dinner we played a friendly game of putt-putt! My favorite thing to do when going places! Taylor let me win of course (or I beat him fair and square.... one will never know, haha!!!) 

Friday's Date Night Outfit

Unfortunately this white v-neck peplum top from Nordstrom is sold out in every color! But I will remain on the lookout for you all, so once it is restocked I will alert you! I did link one of my favorite white tees that I wear with these shorts below + another white top that I love! My Trina Turk shorts are also old, but I've linked a few of my favorite patterns below!!! My necklace is in stock and is such a great price!!! It's been one of my fave necklaces of the summer! Great item to add to your wardrobe! I love all jewelry from BaubleBar!
