‘Let’s take our hearts for a walk in the woods & listen to the magic whispers of old trees’?❤️ I absolutely love this photo from the photoshoot I did last week! I just got it and the entire atmosphere of the enchanted theme I think turned out amazing. It’s a photo I never thought possible. If you haven’t heard of Original Piece Studios, you pick a package and can get photographed either for fun, with friends, or for a bridal shower. I did the ‘Princess Package’ their most popular one and I  love how it turned out. I did the…

It’s all about Boho this summer and what better way to be boho than with some braids! I came across this amazing tutorial and I had to share it with all of you! The braids are so simple and easy to do and give you that instant boho feel! [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESL65QfcrPg] I did the first braid in the tutorial and it turned out amazing and looked perfect with my new maxi for summertime! You can even add in a beaded headpiece to give it a boho twist! Which braid is your favorite?! Are you loving the boho trend?!

Today at my photoshoot our latest prop was this cute little lab puppy Lucy…aka Lucy ‘The Lab.’ I got to hold this puppy and babysit while the models for their photos done! I have to say this little girl is as cute in person as she is in this picture and just as sweet! After babysitting her I’m definitely now wanting a new puppy to add to family! Don’t we all love some puppy love! They are so cute and they love you no matter what! What’s your favorite dog breed! What kind of puppy should I get?!?!

It’s July 4th and that means wearing the most patriotic outfit you can find today! I got this maxi with it’s stars and stripes in honor of the 4th! I was so excited when I saw it because of how american this outfit was for the 4th! I added a simple denim vest to give it a more ‘Merica feeling and paired it with simple sandals for the day! The sandals are perfect for the outdoors and are so comfortable to wear to work and later on a barbecue! I couldn’t help but add my favorite red lipstick by revlon…

Hey bloggers! Happy 4th of July! It’s sunny here, but today especially with the launch of my new GKeys, I’ll be busy working most this sunshine filled 4th! I can’t complain though, as some of you launching a new venture means endless hours, but that’s part of the fun of it, don’t you agree? I was so excited by the outpouring of support on the site yesterday! So many of you wrote in about which GKey was your favorite, which meant so much to me! And yes, I am working on new designs as we speak and yes I will…

Today I got to be a part of the launch of my all new jewelry line, GKeys! I admit I was really nervous, aren’t we all when we launch a new venture? We put so much time, work, and heart in something and you just pray people see the beauty in it as much as you do! I started off designing the keys by sketching them out. I had been thinking for about a year now ways for people to spread their message. I’ve learned my motto throughout the year that “Life is a journey and only you hold the…

So this past week I got to take a ‘day escape’ and that was to Disney World! I of course wore my Disney themed GKey and got to many compliments on it I lost count!! I went to the Magic Kingdom first, which is where I took the photo above! I was so excited to take a photo with all the balloons! I don’t know how they carry that many balloons around all day long though! I wore this short outfit as a theme for Mickey Mouse that ended up going with my Minnie ears from Belle Boutique. With my…

Today I’m featuring: The Earth Laughs in Flowers GKey. This GKey was designed because I absolutely love flowers and I wanted a unique design that incorporated that love. The blue color is one of my favorite and the pop of flowers on the key give is a fun feel. I came up with the name ‘The Earth Laughs in the Flowers’ because of how fun the color hues are on this key. It puts a smile on your face and automatically puts you in a good mood. This key also goes with almost all outfits for summer. The bright colors will…

I decided to start my weekend off on the bright side with this hot pink nail lacquer and tribal design. I was browsing through my pinterest nail board and decided to combine a combination of tribal designs and summer fun polka dots.I have to say the hot pink color is my favorite for summer! It’s by Aurora and has a gel effect that makes the color brighter and the polish last longer. I’ve had this design on my nails for almost a week and it’s been chip free which of course we all love to know!I would definitely recommend checking…

It’s officially less than a week until summer ‘officially’ starts but I couldn’t help but jumpstart my outfit. I just got this oversized floral print dress and decided to pair it with a white blazer so I could wear it to work. I have to say my favorite part of this dress has to be the bold blue color contrast! It goes perfect with sandals (which I wear to work) or I pair it with wedges for a night out. I love this dress because of how it fits and how it’s the perfect length to pair with a ‘boyfriend’…

I love summer days spent outdoors, especially outside in my garden. I based it around the ‘fairy’ theme with fairy accents and a pathway. I love flowers and I love spring and summer because I think you can never have too many flowers growing! The tricky part is to keep them as fresh as you see them in photos! but today I just spent the day strolling in the garden with my new sundress that is so comfortable I want to wear it everyday! It has pockets too, which I love and the mix of colors are perfect for springtime!…

I have to say I love the country lifestyle but I can’t help but love the cityscapes of the city. I absolutely love the tall buildings and the background of the water. It was beautiful and the sunshine was perfect for my day spent downtown. I wore my favorite sundress accented with the front ruffle from Original Piece Boutique and paired it with my lightweight sweater that was nautical inspired to go with the nautical downtown vibes. I paired it with my favorite Aldo sandals that I literally have worn so much they have holes in them. I got them…
