Post Christmas Thoughts

Hello!
It has been a hot second! Sorry for the radio silence between finals and preparing for Christmas I have been a tad busy and honestly a bit unmotivated to write or post anything. I hope you all had an amazing Holiday Season. I know I did!

I did plenty of festive activities including decorating, watching too many Christmas movies and specials to count, going to Christmas parties, and even taking a magical ride on the Polar Express. I love this time of year not only because of these activities but also being able to do these activities with family and friends.

Every year we go to our family friends house on Christmas Day and it is always the highlight of the day. Being surrounded by loved ones and everyone being full of Christmas cheer and good will is honestly what really makes this time of year so magical.

My family seemed very happy with the gifts they received (hopefully my parents get plenty of use out of the coffee pod carousel I got them) and I was also thrilled with what I received. Especially my new journal which I will use for my 2019 bullet journal!

This time after Christmas is really relaxing and a great time just to unwind from all the hecticness from this month. It also gives me time to catch up on all of my shows! (considering I have been watching nothing but Christmas specials for the past month). I will also use this time to think about what I want my intentions and resolutions to be in the New Year.

Did you have a nice Christmas? What are your plans for this week between Christmas and New Years? Let me know in the comments!

Starting With the Basics

Image
For my first official blog post I decided to start with a classic. And what is more basic and classic than a white button down shirt and jeans. I love the casual breeziness of this look and the fact that is it a true classic staple. I decided to amp up this look with a bold red lip and a large floppy hat.  This look is also perfect for this springtime, when the weather is nice but you're not quite ready for shorts and a tank just yet.  One thing you should know about me now, is that I always like to have fun with style. Whether it's fun prints, statement accessories, or bold makeup I will always do my best to bring my look up a notch but still feel comfortable and confident in my look. Because honestly it doesn't matter if you are wearing the most basic or out there thing, if you wear it with confidence you will always shine!  Tell me some of your favorite classic pieces? What is a item that you think will never go out of style? Feel free to comment

My Fall Break: Doing All Things Autumn in One Weekend

Image
Ya this is about a week late, sorry but I've been pretty busy (sadly my senior thesis isn't going to write itself) But I did recently have a great Fall Break back in Ohio. During this break I succeeded in my goal to do all things Fall related. I arrived Friday night, so first on Saturday I went to the farmers market with my friend Jess. Also on Saturday my dad and I went to the Ohio State game (my first time actually attending an OSU game if you can believe it). It was so much fun we walked around beforehand and checked out the tailgating scene. Going to Loyola I miss out on football tailgating so it was great to experience it. We also saw the marching band perform before the game which was also a great experience. The actual game was a lot of fun, even though it was pretty stressful. Even though it was 80 degrees it was still a perfect fall activity. Also that weekend my family and I went to a corn maze and market. The corn maze itself was fun (not very decorated or diffi

Why Galantines Day is so Important

Image
Hey Y'all I hope everyone had a great weekend. Whether you spent it with a significant other, friends, family or just enjoying some me time, I hope it was full of love. Even though the day itself has passed I still wanna talk about why I think Galantines (or as some say Palentines) Day is important to me. I didn't do anything special on actual Galentines or Valentines Day because they were both during the week and I had some exams that week. Although getting free chocolate in all of my classes was a nice perk. My friends and I decided to celebrate this past weekend. First on Friday we went to an escape room downtown called the Escape Game which was so much fun! We got out of the room with a minute to spare :) Also that weekend we saw the movie "Isn't it Romatic" which is a parody of all the Rom Coms we know and love. The movie itself was predictable but cute and enjoyable. Lastly as a little more spur of the moment I met up with some fri
