So today I spent Sunday Funday snorkeling for the first-time! I got to use my new gear from DryCase & TechCandy which I’ve been waiting to use for this planned (first-ever) scuba trip! The DryCase was my backpack that I used in the water and it worked amazing! Nothing got wet! And the TechCandy case was inside my water resistant protector and let me tell you nothing got wet inside! It was amazing to use especially in the water! 🙂 My friends & I decided to go and I have to say I was nervous at first! But once you…

So in honor of Halloween I couldn’t refuse getting the Starbucks Frapula Frap drink today! I have to tell you if you love sweet drinks you’ll love this for Halloween. It is white mocha with solid chocolate at the bottom and the red is raspberry… basically think of it as a sweet dessert! I did my new nails in honor of Halloween too (and yes I did them myself)! They are pinterest inspired! I saw the nail art on Pinterest and couldn’t help but give it a try! I have to say I think they turned out good for my first-ever…

So today I had an amazing yoga session at sunset! The weather was not to hot and not to cold and the breeze was amazing! I tried about this new pose I saw online and the sunsetting was a perfect backdrop! Yoga really does relax you and it made me feel refreshed for the rest of the week! I felt so accomplished when I finally did this pose I’ve been working on for a few weeks now! I got to wear one of my favorite yoga outfits from Be Up Clothing! The pants are so comfortable and they are perfect…

It’s National Pumpkin Day and what better way to spend it than in a PUMPKIN PATCH! I have to admit I am one of those people that absolutely love everything pumpkin! Pumpkin coffee, pumpkin donuts, pumpkin cake… you name I LOVE it! The first day of October I can’t wait to get a pumpkin coffee and just sit and enjoy the good taste of fall! I was so happy when I found out it was National Pumpkin Day today because it screams FALL! That means Christmas (my absolute favorite holiday) is right around the corner! I got to wear my…

So because so many of you wrote in and ask here is a closer look at my nails I did for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. AND YES I DID THEM MYSELF! I’ve been struggling to find a nail salon that does amazing nail art so I decided to do them myself! It took my twenty to thirty minutes (because I had to redo the pink ribbon) but overall the design wasn’t hard at ALL! I LOVE the silver sparkles I chose to incorporate and I think my favorite nail is the ‘HOPE’ one I did where the ‘o’ is a…

So today I got the a new planner from Vera Bradley. The best part was a portion of my sale was donated to the Vera Bradley Breast Cancer Foundation that they’ve created raising over 23 million! I was so happy to read that they have their own foundation and are supporting a cause close to my heart. I showed my support my taking this instagram photo today and share it with all of you guys. The print is my favorite and of course I love how they incorprated all the colors and how it has that special touch of pink…

So I finally got to go to my first pumpkin patch this year! There were so many pumpkins to chose from and it was the perfect fall scenery! I loved it! I wore my new piko dress in hunter green (which I had to have) with my new booties from Dillards (they glittered so of course I NEEDED THEM)! I got so many compliments on my outfit today that it’s definitely my favorite for fall! What do you guys think? The weather was perfect today it had the fall breeze and it was sunny, what better way to spend a…

So I couldn’t help but go into the Lilly section at Dillards… after all they are having their end of season sale so how can a girl refuse to at least TRY one of their amazing dresses on?! I definitely couldn’t! And I know it’s hard to believe but I have yet to add a Lilly Pulitzer dress to my collection! I’ve been searching for the perfect one to get! I couldn’t help but try this amazing maxi dress on! The colors are perfect and scream LILLY if there ever was a Lilly dress with their name on it… I…

So today I finally got a chance to be ‘behind the lens’ and see the world with a different perspective. Usually I’m always in front the camera documenting my travels, but I have to tell you taking in the scenery behind-the-lens today was amazing! I got to see things I wouldn’t usually see and got to take photos of the amazing nature outdoors today. It’s been raining this past week and today the tide was high and the sun was shining. Do you ever try seeing the world at a different angle? You might be surprised by what you see…

I love traveling! I got to spend my day at an amazing hotel in Florida and I absolutely love the gorgeous Florida weather! I couldn’t wait to pull out my new Vera Bradley tote that I absolutely take everywhere now! It has so much room for all my stuff and so many pockets! I can fit all my stuff I need to in it and more! The best part is the material of the tote. The material can easily be wiped off and if it gets wet, no problem it dries fast! I should know I got caught in the…

‘Don’t wait for the Storm to Stop, Learn to Dance in the Rain.” So it’s been raining non-stop the past few weeks it feels and finally I decided why let the rain stop me?! I pulled out one of my favorite Vera Bradley umbrella’s and my new Hunter Boots and of course I put to use my new Marley Lilly monogramed rain jacket and I was ready! I didn’t let the rain stop me from having some fun and wearing my new outfit I simply LOVE! I have to say after using the new Vera Bradley cross-body purse I love…

Have you laughed today?! Well today at the beach it was the most perfect day with that ocean breeze and simple soft sound of the waves crashing in. I was so excited to be able to wear my new shirt from Lauren James! As some readers’ might know I’m a huge Lauren James fan! I love their t-shirts that have that simple yet ‘oh-so-cute’ preppy vibe and they are so soft!! I love my new purple one with the design on the back and the pocket in the front! It’s my new ‘go-to’ shirt I wear almost everyday when I…
