Emotions in Nude

Hello! Today I actually wasn't going to post anything because I really should be studying, but I got distracted and did my makeup. So of course I couldn't let an opportunity go to waste. I didn't have any outfit to photograph, so I decided to do a bit of a different kind of shoot. Here I focused on the emotions in the face, with a nude background, nude makeup, and no bright clothing. I really enjoyed how this turned out. Let me know what you think about it.







P. S. I am wearing a bandeau in these pictures haha. Hugs <3

Casual Summer Outfit


Hellooo! Today has been a pretty good day so far, except for the fact that I couldn't fall asleep last night so I woke up super tired this morning for class. It was such a struggle keeping my eyes open! And I didn't even have time to go get coffee because I walked around my bedroom like a zombie trying to figure what clothes even were haha. But now I have finally woken up (although coffee would still be an amazing addition to today...maybe I'll get some after work?). Today it is absolutely gorgeous out! The sun is shining, it's soo hot, and I can't wait to get my tan on at work later. One of the best things about my job is that it's outside. I hate being inside during the summer! I feel like it is such a waste of beautiful weather, free time from school work, all the cute summer outfit combinations, having so many laughs with friends!....I'm sorry I could really list so many things I love about summer, but I'm really trying to cut back on the 'I LOVE SUMMER' talk on the blog haha.  

Here is a little outfit I threw together because I realized I still hadn't shown you this top I got forever ago (well early summer), and I completely meant to post it. So now you see it :). It's super soft and comfy! And it's not too tight. This is definitely one of the comfiest shirts I own. I can't wait to use it on campus in the fall because cute and comfy is definitely a must when sitting through hour and a half long lectures. 







Sunglasses from Ray-Bans, necklace I forget where it's from, t-shirt from American Eagle Outfitters, shorts from Urban Outfitters, shoes from Converse (but these are super old).

Tonight I'm going to the drive in to see a movie with a friend. Maybe I'll take some pictures and show you tomorrow. Hugs <3

Dinner with the Girls

Good morning! So finally, here are the pictures from my dinner night with my sorority sisters :). Seriously though, how gorgeous are they?! We all looked soo nice and pretty all dressed up for the evening. Dinner was so much fun! We had so many laughs, and told some great stories. I'm so excited I get to be living with them all next year! This is not all of my sorority sisters, just most of the girls in my pledge class from the Cleveland area. In total I think there are about 70 girls in my pledge class? But it was definitely nice to see some of the girls who live here locally :). As always when at the Cheesecake Factory, we all got cheesecake for dessert. I got my usual banana cheesecake :). It was soo yummy! I did manage to give myself a stomach ache from eating so much though haha. Oh well. Good food and good friends. What more could a girl ask for?


From left to right you have Alexis, Kenzie, Molly, McKenna, me, Sam, and Marissa. 
(Yes I am indeed that short haha)


These pictures were taken with a phone, so I'm sorry the quality isn't the best. But you can at least see something from the evening :).

Brandy Melville Shirt

Good morning and happy Sunday! I know Sunday's are the typical day where we relax in snuggle clothes and watch a few episodes of Gossip Girl on the couch. But today I thought I'd give you a little outfit inspo from earlier this week. I was feeling like trying out a style that I don't normally wear, and it was totally fun! I love trying out new trends. This is one I have definitely fallen in love with. It's definitely a style that is super popular now, but I had never really tried it out. And now I must say I'm hooked. It's super comfy! This shirt is soo soft! But that's how everything from Brandy Melville is :). The shorts aren't super tight or so short that they're riding up my butt (I'm sure you all know what I mean). My hair is out of my face! I hate having my hair in my face! I always end up putting it in a pony tail or braid by the end of the day. And then, comfy tennis shoes in a fun color to top it all off :) Overall, this outfit is totally a win for me.










That awkward moment when your neighbors totally stare at you for taking pictures of yourself....yes that happens, and it's soo uncomfortable haha.

Sisters on the Beach

Hellloooo! So today I was scrolling through the pictures on my laptop, as I like to do sometimes to just see how I have changed in the past few months (it is really crazy how much I have changed haha). But I saw that I hadn't posted all the pictures from my Port Clinton trip that I wanted to show you! So I immediately had to right that wrong and post these pictures. Especially the ones of Alyssa (my sister) and I. Because hello! She is too pretty to not show on the blog haha. 




So indie, so Lys haha. My sister is obsessed with being 'indie'. And so I took this picture of her to satisfy her need to be indie haha. Needless to say, she posted this picture on Instagram minutes after I edited it :)



Tonight I'm going out to dinner with some of my sorority sisters! We are going to The Cheesecake Factory, and I am so excited! The calorie intake will be ridiculous, but that cheesecake is soo worth it every once in awhile. Mmmm yummy in my tummy! I should get some pictures from tonight, and hopefully I'll be able to show you tomorrow :) Hugs <3

Vintage Levis and Stripped Crop Top

Hello! First off, I'm so sorry I haven't posted the last two days! I had a chemistry exam today (which is finally over woohoo!!) that I really needed to put all my energy into studying for. I'm not sure it will pay off, but I worked my butt off. I just couldn't seem to grasp the material no matter how much I looked at it and practiced the calculations. Does that ever happen to you guys? It's seriously the worst! But now that it's over I can breathe again :). After I got home from class, I decided I really needed to put some effort into taking some cool pictures for you. So I hope you get inspired by this little outfit I put together. I think it's so cute! I actually stole this top from my sister's closet, and now I'm actually considering purchasing my own because I like it so much haha. And then of course, high waisted vintage Levis. I don't think anything says casual summer outfit better than these beauties.




Shorts are Vintage Levis from Etsy, Crop top from Forever21, Lipstick from Nars Color: Cruella

Hope you're all having a wonderful day! Hugs <3

Stripped Tank Top

Hello readers! Today I'm going to give you an outfit post because I really haven't been doing much with my life besides working. And who really wants to hear about that? I took these pictures on the Fourth of July because I thought the blue and white tank top with the red shoes was so patriotic haha. Usually I'm not one to go with the whole American theme, but for those of you who love it, this is for you haha. I wish I could have worn this to the party I went to after work. But by the time I was ready to go, it had gotten quite chilly, and I was forced to wear long sleeves :(. But I absolutely love this tank top! Just check out that open back guys! It's just so pretty! I think it'll finally be getting warm enough the next few weeks were I can walk around in tank tops like this one and be comfortable. We've had a really cold summer here. Luckily it hasn't interferred too much with my tan haha.






Tank top from Urban Outfitters, shorts are old, shoes from Target

Gotta love those tan lines haha. Hugs <3
