I am currently attending Harvard and pursuing a degree in Humanities. My passion is books and writing. Books taught me things about myself, the world, and society in ways I never thought possible. It is thanks to books I know who I am and allowed me to discover my passion for writing. There is nothing like crafting characters and capturing the voice of a story, bringing it to life on the pages. Thanks to every bookish bestie in the book world, it has allowed me to spread my joy of reading to people worldwide!

So I had to share this dress with you… don’t you think it screams SUMMER! The gorgeous floral print and the flare fun bottom is just what I’ve been searching for!

The straps come off too if I want to make it a strapless fit! 🙂 It’s the perfect summertime dance dress or a flirty fun date night outfit! Either way the color and the dress do the talking! I paired it with my new Jack Roger sandals…

Yes Pleasseee come back later, I’m busy right now. I went to my favorite beach in Florida today and the water was amazing (as you can obviously tell) and the sunset was gorgeous. The cool ocean breeze was so nice that I could never leave paradise. It was so hard as I watched the sunset and know that I had to go back to reality. The magic of the ocean is breathtaking. The Florida beaches in the summertime is something you won’t be able to find anywhere else. Searching for seashells and just hearing the waves always gets me recharged for…
