dress: Target, sandals: F21, headband: F21

A super simple outfit for a humid Sunday! I love this dress. It’s one of the few things I’ve bought not on sale. A big kid purchase. 🙂

We are officially three days away from VACATION! Woo! A whole week in a four-story beach side house with my crazy family. Margaritas, sand, reading, water, margaritas, and lounging. I haven’t even started packing. My grandparents have literally been packed since April and my parents have been packed for a month. What are some good books I should bring? Most of my stuff is in storage so I need ideas!

Happy Monday!

tee: Old Navy, skirt: thrifted, shoes: Pacsun

A very simple outfit for lunch with my grandparents. It’s always nice spending time with them and getting to know them more and more with every visit. I love our family. Which is good because we are all going on vacation in 12 days! Ahh.. a week of beachy bliss. Margaritas and sand are calling.my.name.

Happy Monday!

This day was absolutely gorgeous. I got out and washed my car for probably the third time since I’ve had it. Oops! 🙂 We are getting ready to sell that mug and get something smaller so if you’re in the market for an SUV… 😉

It’s hard to believe it’s already June! I haven’t been out of school that long but my poor youngest sister, Rudy, is still in school. I do not miss those days. Yikes! We celebrated her passing the STAAR test the other night. Woo! That’s Texas’ state test that students grades 6-12 have to take at the end of each year. It’s been brutal on Rudy but she did it! And we’re so proud! Go Rudy!

How’s your summer going? So far I’ve been job and apartment hunting mostly and hanging out with friends before they move away! I’ve got a small goal list for the summer number one being find a job. 😉 I’m still waiting to hear back from my top pick. Praying so hard that I get it! If you feel inclined pray that with me!

This week I’m catching up on reading and going to see The Purge on Friday! Ooooo!

Happy Tuesday!

All About: Geo Prints

Hello all and happy Friday! I’m starting a new mini series today all about trends. You guys know I love to wear whatever I want despite the trends but I do like to gather inspiration and ideas from trends. Especially when they are easily accessible at places like Forever21, H&M, and Old Navy!

Today I’m focusing on the geo print. It’s a relatively new thing popping up all over the place. Shirts, pants, tights, jewelry, phone cases etc. I love the print! And it’s so easy to DIY because there are no set lines or patterns. Just start making angles. 🙂 It’s all about sharp shapes, lines, simple colors, usually black and white, and crisp angles. It is, however, different from a tribal print!

So if you want to see some examples of geo prints for summer, keep reading!
