2 Year Recap

This past Friday, August 19th, I celebrated 2 years of blogging via Instagram. Some of you have been here with me throughout this journey, some of you are new here and Welcome! I wanted to do a quick recap of the last year, as at my first blogaversery I did a recap of that first year, so here's a recap of the second year!

September: East Carolina Visits and football games, I got to meet Olivia from @faithandliv

 October: Homecoming with my friend Andrew, an awesome time with an awesome guy (and an awesome jeep)

 November: I organized a shoot with my gal pals and we took a bunch of pictures together, this one was one of my favorites (almost a year later and I don't know how I pulled off this shoot)

 December: Short Pump Christmas shoot!

 January: Snow Shoot during our first dusting!

 February: Valentines shoot, this was one of the coldest photoshoots I've ever endured but I found this pink house and took one of my pinterest famous photos during this shoot.

 March: This again was one of the coldest shoots ever! I loved this outfit and my friend Cornelia did my make up! This was also the day of my first Vlog.

 April: Shoot at Maymont, I took some good adventure photos and figured out how to get dressed in the middle of a bamboo forest for an outfit change #goodtimes.

 May: The Lilly Dresses come out.

 June: Dream Job became reality in later May and Early June!

 July: 20K!!!

 August: Move into College Dorm.

 Y'all have been here through many milestones with me and I couldn't be more thankful for each and every one of you. God has blessed me so much and I love y'all!

Everyone needs the occasional pick me up, here are some words of encouragement for when times get tough!

2. Finally, be Strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Ephesians 6:10

3. But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not grow faint. Isaiah 40:31

4. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all of your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. Mark 12:30

Pink Challenge #1

As some of you know, I've began working with PINK as one of their campus stylists. I am so humbled and blessed to have this opportunity! I love telling y'all all about my experiences with working with them and I thought it'd be cool to share my first challenge and show some pictures! My requirements for this first challenge were to shop (I'm good at this so it was simple). The next part was taking pictures and the only requirements for those was that 5 had to be on body photos, and 5 had to be on the floor, staged photos but having extra was also allowed! Here are some of the photos I submitted. My friend Clay Sperlazza shot these photos of me!

 

This first PINK item I styled was this Burgundy zip up! It has a white mesh detailing and some accent black stripes as well! Its perfect to throw on over a tank or sports bra and is light weight!



Next I styled this orange oversized tee that is cozy and comfy for your morning coffee!

                                             And this purple tank with a purple bralette!

 

I picked out this super soft light blue hoodie! Its soft and cozy but still lightweight!

 I got this white and grey zip up that is perfect to throw on in college to go to class! Its sporty but still Chic!

 

This is an example of my staged floor photos!

What's in my Pool Bag?

During the summer, having those go to items in your pool bag is essential. There's nothing better than being able to just pick up your bag and go straight to the pool without having to rush around the house trying to grab everything you need! I use this Scout bag for my pool bag! Its light and still holds everything I need!

As you can see, there's a few front pockets that hold various different things. The first item I want to talk about: a good towel.

Here I have pictured the Lovers Coral Lilly Pulitzer towel!

Second item: a good pair of shades (these are from target)

Item #3: a throw on tank or cover up. Here I have pictured a boyfriend tank from @bwhimsy on Instagram, this is great to throw on to go anywhere when you're in a swimsuit.

 I think its safe to say I have a float obsession so I always keep one to two floats in my bag because I never know when I'll need one!

When laying out in the sun, sunscreen, bronzer and or aloe is so important. I use all three of these on a regular basis because I'm constantly trying to be tan and it doesn't always go my way.

 Lastly I have this other mini ID holder by Scout that I usually keep cash, jewelry and my license in!

 

That's what's in my pool bag this summer 2016!
