Fourth of July 2014

Happy Independence Day for everyone who lives in the United States! I always love dressing up in red, white and blue and doing fireworks! Today I am wearing a sheer white floral top from TJ Maxx, a blue bubble necklace from Charming Charlie, a blue hair bow that I made, and a dark red skirt from Brandy Melville but you can't see it in the picture haha! You'll just have to imagine what it looks like because the minute I stepped out to take a full body picture, it started pouring rain outside. Anyways, I found this really cool layered drink idea on Pinterest and basically you fill a cup with ice then you pour in your different drinks. The one with the highest sugar content goes first (the red in my case) , and then you pour a drink with less sugar (the white) in the middle, and the last layer (the blue) will have the least amount of sugar. I used cranberry juice, coconut juice and Gatorade. And then I cut watermelon into stars to go on my favorite blue plate! :) I hope you guys liked my outfit and diy ideas and have a fabulous day!

Casual OOTD - Bass Pro Shops

 

I used to never like going to any other stores besides clothing stores and fabric stores, but now I'm pretty much open to going anywhere! One place in particular that I think is a really fun store would be Bass Pro Shops! It is literally soooo cool in there and its HUGE! I'm not even into fishing or hunting haha I just like looking at how they decorated, AND there's a huge fish tank too! So yeah, as you can tell, I went to Bass Pro Shops recently and I decided to make a post on my casual outfit of the day! I've been really loving the fashion kimono trend and when I found this knit kimono/ cardigan, I literally freaked! It's super perfect for spring!

OUTFIT DETAILS: knit kimono/cardigan (Ross), blue tank (Forever 21), fish necklace (Forever 21), leggings/ yoga pants (Aeropostale), cross body bag (Target), sandals (DSW), sunglasses (Urban Outfitters)

Hope you guys have a fabulous day and check out the video I filmed for this outfit here!

I am so excited for spring to come! It is my absolute favorite season! Anyways, here's an outfit that would work on a warmer winter day and it could easily be worn in spring as well! I love how all of the colors stand out! This outfit could also work with mint jeans/ jeggings if it's too cold for shorts, and you could also substitute the white sneakers for some black combat boots for an edgier vibe!

New Years Resolutions

Happy New Years! 2013 has definitely been an amazing year! I have experienced so much and I definitely feel that I have changed, but in a good way :)  I am ready to start new and begin 2014! Anyways, writing resolutions are always a must for me. It helps me stay motivated and gives me an outlet to express my positivity. Last year, surprisingly, I actually accomplished and followed through with all of my resolutions, so now I am looking forward to continuing those I have down and also adding new ones! In this post I will be revealing some of my resolutions, and also providing tips to create your own! Oh and lets just throw an outfit of the day in there too! :)

  

Okay, down to business... here are some of my new years resolutions for 2014:

1.) No procrastination allowed, especially on school work!

2.) Stop useless spending (buying chips, candy, clothes you will never wear, etc.)

3.) Don't get so stressed, be more relaxed (not lazy though)

4.) Keep everything clean and organized (room, backpack, phone, etc.)

*Now, here's some tips for making your own and sticking with them!

1.) Think of attainable goals. Things that are not too over the top. I'm not discouraging you to dream big, but to decrease the risk of disappointment if you don't accomplish your goal, think about things that are more likely to happen than winning the lottery. Just be realistic.

2.) Think of things that you are already doing "right" and work to continue those.

3.) Think about the problems you had last year and possible solutions for those problems. (Ex. If it takes you forever to do your homework, maybe you should put away your phone or turn off the TV while you work.)

4.) After you think of all your resolutions, write them down in some place visible so that you can see them every day. This will remind you of your goals and help motivate you to go out and accomplish them!

5.) It's okay to change your goals/ resolutions after you've come up with them. Life happens and you just have to go with it.

I hope you found this post useful! Happy New Years again! I know you all can accomplish your resolutions! Let's make 2014 the best year yet! Now go spread your fabulous positivity with the world and have a productive day!

Mint Jacket

I found this adorable mint jacket at Target! Shhh.. it's actually from the kids section... But hey, if you can fit, why not take advantage of the lower prices right?
