Neon Pink Maxi Dress

Hot pink maxi dress with statement necklace

I am having vacation withdrawals! Wes and I were in Michigan this past weekend having fun on the lake, celebrating my sister’s wedding, and visiting with family. Going up north to the lake is something I look forward to every year, and it always goes by MUCH too quickly. I’ll be sure to post photos a little later on in the week since Wes and I were the official wedding photographers and all:) It was a great weekend and I will be in a post-vacation depression for the next week or so:( Neon pink maxi dress Neon pink dress Hot pink maxi dress Hot pink chiffon maxi dress Pink maxi with statment necklace Hill country photography Waterfall in the hill country Big bird in hill country

I found this dress at a flea market up by my parents house in the Dallas area. This cute little Texas Boutique had a whole bunch of dresses on sale and I got this one for only $10! It’s super fun for summer time because it’s so bright, but you could also throw on a black cardigan and maybe a little black Kendra Scott for a more toned down fall/winter look!

The photos were taken at Bull Creek. I took some here last year, but with all of this rain it looks drastically different down there now. So much more water! It’s a great place to go for a hike or for a swim in the areas with less rapids. Looks of awesome nature as well, as you can see by the cool bird photo:) Hope you are all having a wonderful week after the 4th of July. Let’s get this one over with and get to next weekend already! Haha!

Red, White, and Blue in Austin

Red white and blue outfit 2015

It’s red, white, and blue time y’all! I have had this top for a few years now, and I always seem to wear it around the 4th. I love that you can style it in so many different ways and make so many outfits from it. This year I went with the simple white tank and denim shorts. I threw in a cute patriotic necklace for a little spice and some comfy polka dot Keds because, really, who doesn’t like Keds?

I can’t believe that 4th of July week is finally here! I am so excited for a weekend of family, food, and celebrating the love of my wonderful sister and her fiance! I am so excited and I just can’t hide it:) It’s going to be an amazing weekend and I will be sure to update you all via Instagram as it happens! I would love if you would come on over and follow along if you aren’t already:)

I took a little hike up to the 360 bridge look out this weekend and it was beautiful! I am so surprised I had never done it before! As you can see in the photos, you can see for miles and even catch a little glimpse of the city off in the distance. Wes and I bought a new camera a few weekends ago and I was eager to try it out and get a little artsy. I love how they all turned out and looking at them just makes me so thankful to live in such a beautiful place!

I don’t have a whole lot else to say today, but I hope that you all join me this weekend on Instagram! I will be back soon!

Navy Stripes With Coral

I am so tired! This past weekend was my birthday weekend, and you know how that goes. We had to eat all the food and do ALL the activities. After brunching twice, walking a lot, eating more than my fill of Hopddody, playing Topgolf, and paddle boarding on the river I was exhausted come Sunday night. Then, we took our friend who was in town helping with the floods to Patrizi's, this amazing Italian food truck here in Austin, and sat there chatting for four hours. (Oh, and saw Zoe Deschanel too, but that's another story for another time:))   After our 4 hour chat, we realized that it was super late and we had to drive him all the way back down to Wimberely and then drive ourselves home. Needless to say, I was barely functioning on Monday morning. Then, to top it all off, my sister, her husband, their 3 kids and 2 dogs all came down on Monday night and stayed until Wednesday morning. Obviously we had to stay up late chatting and get no sleep again. So, last night was spent catching up on orders for my shop and relaxing. <sigh> It's always so much fun to have people in town and sad to see them go, but I am fully ready for a weekend of doing not much.  I'm hoping to get a little bit of painting done around our house this weekend, and that's about it. Let's hope it's as relaxing as I'm thinking it will be:)  Get The Look:  Ross Striped Maxi  //  Statement Necklace from Rocksbox  //  Charming Charlie Clutch, Belt, & Texas Bracelet  //  Target Sunglasses & Sandals  //  JORD Wooden Watch  This dress was a winner for sure. I got it for $12 at Ross and I have already worn it multiple times. I love the lace detail and I LOVE this necklace with it. It's my first purchase from a Rocksbox and I am SO in love with it! Side braids have been my go to hair style recently with all of this rain and humidity. I am so bummed at how this summer has started out. Usually by now it's in the 90's and beautiful every day and so far we've just had a lot of rain and humidity. Now, I can't really complain because this rain is getting us out of the drought, but I want to see some sunshine for more than a week! Haha! Oh well, I live in Texas...it will be absolutely beautiful in another week or so and there won't be a cloud in the sky for months:)  Hope everyone is having a wonderful week so far and has a beautiful weekend! Thanks for stopping by!  PS: You can get your first Rocksbox for free with code

Birthday Weeks Are The Best!

Blue Old Navy Dress with multi-colored bag

Tomorrow is my birthday and I couldn’t be more excited about it. I don’t know what it is about birthdays that make me happy, but even though I am another year closer to being 30, I am still pumped. Maybe it’s the fact that I am requiring my husband to take me to get the best burger in Austin…or maybe it’s the red velvet Nothing Bundt Cake that we’re getting to celebrate with? Birthdays are all about the food for me. I may be doing very well with my whole 30 type diet I have going on…but on my birthday I’m having a burger, fries, AND cake! Calories just don’t count on your birthday (week) and I plan to run with that….

I’m pretty sure I have this dress in each and every color and pattern that it came in. I bought the blue seersucker one first, and then they all went on sale online one night for $9 and I bought the rest. You can’t beat a comfy dress that is flattering and brightly colored:) This necklace has been on repeat non-stop since I bought it. It goes with so many different things and I am in love with it! I also love that it cost me under $10 at Sam Moon! What? Yeah..under 10 bucks is a steal!
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend, I may or not be posting tomorrow…we shall see how I feel about it:) All I know is that I’m leaving early on Friday and I plan to do whatever I want for the next 3 days straight! Yay me!
