Beach Sunrise

This past Sunday was an emotional day for me. My Grandma, who passed this June, would have turned 74 that day. I was VERY close to her. It's been very hard without her but I just keep reminding myself that she is no longer in pain and that's all that matters. So a day before …

Sanderling Resort

We visited Sanderling Resort this past weekend. When I say we, I mean myself and 11 other girls. My best friend, Hope, is getting married in 2 weeks so we had a last hurrah for her. Sanderling is a beautiful resort and spa in the Outer Banks. We spent so much time beaching it up …

Kate Somerville

I am super thankful that I won a whole mess of goodies from Kate Somerville this summer. I posted awhile back about trying out their products for the first time and how amazing I thought they were. Finally sharing what I use and why! Hint...cause these products are the BEST. Most of these you are supposed …

Stila Cosmetics

Stila Cosmetics are AMAZING! I have been using their products for awhile now and I can't say enough about them. Being the huge lip gloss girl that I am, I am over the moon when I find a brand of gloss that actually stays all day. I hardly ever have time to reapply my gloss …

What NOT To Do At A Wedding

I know from personal experience that spring/summer time means WEDDINGS! Since Garrett and I have been together (as adults) we have been invited to weddings, had our own wedding, and been in several weddings - most of them during the spring/summer. This summer is no exception -  my best friend is getting married in August! …

Jamie Young Photography

Jamie Young does the most amazing photos EVER! I have known her my entire life - no really....... all 26 (almost 27) years. She is family but that's not why I love her photography. I love it because she is so great at capturing moments. She has an eye for color and is able to …

Love Lulus

I am such a huge fan of dresses. I am a huge fan of showing off a little skin too. Since I only get to dress the way I want in the summer (because that would be inappropriate at school), I go all out. Lulus has been featured on my blog several times. They have soo …

LWD

Summer means white. Little white dresses are a staple for summer vacation...at least for me anyway. I have sooo many different white dresses in my closet. I just can't stop myself! I've been super obsessed with this dress ever since it came in the mail. I have been waiting for the perfect chance to wear …

Summer Date Ideas

  Garrett and I are always looking for fun and exciting things (that are inexpensive) to do for our weekly date nights. In the summer, we are really busy (with events, visits, etc.) but we still make time for each other. Here are a list of some things to check off your couple bucket list …

Fun in the Sun

I have decided to spend every waking minute at the beach or in the water.........I hope no one is surprised by this.?. Having lived on Chincoteague Island (basically) my whole life, I have definitely had my fair share of beach time. To be frank, some people seriously don't know how to behave when they visit …
