How to Make a Baseball Hat Look Cute

Good morning! Today I was able to wake up and snap these pictures :). It's not raining today, but it's a little chilly and pretty cloudy. Fall has arrived! Finally I can wear this jacket. It's really comfy and not super thick so my arms can actually bend haha. Do any of you ever have that problem? It seems to happen to me a lot, but maybe that's because I live in a cold climate where we need crazy thick jackets in the winter. Today is the third day of not washing my hair, so it was a little greasy (as if I need an excuse to wear a baseball hat haha). I love wearing baseball hats! They are super easy to throw on, I don't have to do anything to my hair, I can hide greasy hair and zits if I have them on my forehead, and they look cute too! I think baseball hats are a great way to look cute without trying. And believe me, I am all about that minimal effort on an every day basis haha. You can dress baseball hats up like I did today, or wear them with a cute t-shirt and leggings. Also, sorry for the massive amount of photos. They just all came out so good!









Now I'm off to start a busy day! Hugs <3

Rainy Day

Good morning everyone! So this morning I was all set to take some super cute outfit pictures for you, but when I looked out my window, it was cloudy and rainy :(. This was probably for the better because for some reason I was completely wide awake from 1 am to 3 am. I had this crazy amount of energy and felt like could have run a marathon and then some! It was super weird. My stomach was also feeling kind of weird last night too. It was probably just me being hungry because once I hit that 1 am mark, I always need some kind of snack haha. I am sure I look really tired this morning, so maybe  the rain has saved you all from seeing my tired face ;). But here are two snapshots of some knee high socks. I love these photos on tumblr and weheartit. I think they're just so cozy! Mine probably don't even compare, but I tried haha. I can't wait until the weather gets a little cooler so that I can wear these with my tall boots :). But at the same time, weather please take your time getting to the point where I have to wear a parka to class every day haha. Have a great day! Hugs <3

Fall Layers

Good morning everyone! Today I slept in a little bit and then just laid around in bed for about an hour. It was actually amazing haha. It's been forever since I've been able to do that. So the rest of the day I need to be super motivated and get all of my stuff done. I'm going to work out right after I make this post, shower, and then studying the rest of the day. I have an exam tomorrow morning so it's crunch time :/. Wish me luck guys!

Here is some more fall outfit inspiration. I am loving maroon and olive green for the fall, so this outfit has both of them :). A simple pair of dark jeans, booties, a cute t-shirt, and then the blanket scarf adds a little bit of oomf (not to mention it's super cozy!).

Today's

Hello everyone! I'm just going to give you a quick update of how my day has been so far. I woke up today around 10 am feeling a little tired after going out with some friends last night :). So I did my laundry (finally) haha. I was so good about doing every week last year But I've moved up to about every week and a half to two weeks. I guess that really isn't bad compared to some people, but for me it's weird. Then I had to get ready and look super cute for my sorority's Sprite Date today at 1 pm (Sprite Dates are where the girls who are considering going through rush can come and just casually chat with some of the girls in the sororities). That was a little bit rushed with curling my hair and doing more makeup than I normally ever wear haha. But I think I turned out looking relatively decent, so all was well haha. The theme was Bonnaroo, like the music festival, but we did a play on words and called Bonna Mu (because we're Phi Mu soo punny haha). But it was super cute theme! We had brightly colored and crazy patterned tapestries hanging on the walls, a bunch of pictures hanging from twine like you see on pinterest, and my cake pops were a huge hit!! I was sooo excited! The few of my sisters who got to taste some were so complimentary. It just made me so happy :). Totally blushing haha. Tonight is date night with my boyfriend. It's been awhile since we have been on a really date, so this should be fun. I get to look all nice and pretty :). I might take pictures we'll see. But have a great rest of the day! Hugs <3

Vanilla Cake Pops

Hello everyone! I totally meant to get this post out yesterday, but these little cuties took waayyy longer than I expected. And this is only one tray of them! So this was my first attempt at making cake pops. And to be honest, I think they turned out pretty well. I did a lot of research on them before I made them, so that probably helped a lot. There is a lot waiting for things to cool and waiting until the cake balls reach room temperature that took longer than I anticipated. But the final result is super cute! These are for an event tomorrow for my sorority. I can't wait! I used a really simple yellow cake recipe, the buttercream would've been way easier if I had a mixer haha, and then dipping chocolate from the grocery store. So nothing super fancy. Hope you guys enjoy!

First Day of Fall Outfit

Good morning everyone! I decided to take pictures this morning again. I think I will really start doing this more often, at least on my busy days. There is no one walking around, so I don't feel awkward posing in front of a tripod haha. I have just enough time to get ready, take the pictures, edit them, and get a post out to you :). This will be especially great for Wednesdays because I have almost no time during the day to even eat.

Here is the outfit I decided to photograph for the first day of fall. I honestly don't think it gets much more basic white girl than this haha. But this outfit really is super cute! I absolutely love this color for fall, and I cannot wait to be able to wear these boots again!! I seriously think I wore them almost every day last year throughout the fall and winter.

Casual

Hey hey! So today is going to be a little bit hap hazard as far as my schedule. I really have no idea what I want/need to do today, and how I will fit everything in. But hey, sometimes playing things by ear is good. So this morning I skipped the usual workout to take these pictures. But I will definitely need to fit that in at some point, otherwise I definitely go crazy. I'm actually considering going to the gym right after I write this post...we'll see haha. But taking pictures in the morning is something that worked well today, so maybe I'll do it again :). It was pretty chilly out this morning, so I took these inside. That's the only that I don't like about this time of year; when you wake up you need pants and sweater, but as the day goes on you can put on shorts and t-shirt because it gets so warm. But the lighting actually wasn't terrible, so I was pretty happy with that :). And the great room I was using has some pretty, old furniture and a grand piano, so I would definitely love to get some cozy pictures there in the winter.






I hope you are all having a great day. Hugs <3
