Shopping is really a beneficial activity. You workout by walking, practice spending by buying, practice saving by getting the best deals, and probably-no definitely more. I love saving a buck so sales like these are putty in my hands. I could have listed ALL the sales but I thought it only fair to you and I to pick my favorites! Also I wanted to pick mostly all affordable places because as much as I love Anthropolgie I think all I can manage there is a candle. What is your favorite store to shop at and do they have good deals?

Wedding Bells | March 20th 2015

I love weddings! Weddings are always so joyous and this one did not disappoint! Love was in the air, food was heaven in my mouth, the music had me busting a move, and the venue was so beautiful I am still in a daze. The wedding bar has just been raised to another level.

11 Things I Learned through Fashion | May 18th 2015

1. Dressing in all black doesn't make you goth.

2. You don't have to follow every single trend. Their here one second and gone the next.

3.We can't ALL be as flawless as Yonce.

4.Don't compare your style, closet, or self to anyone else...ever. You heard it from Naomi first and we all know she doesn't play.

5.When someone tries to give unsolicited fashion advice just hit them with the no thank you.

6.Don't try too hard.

7.Even the least fashionable, can become fashionable, like me who had no style in middle school.

8.I probably will never be able to afford a pair of these, and that's okay.

9.My nails will never look this good when I do them myself.

10.Natural is beautiful too.

11. Cher and Dionne were slaying high school with their wardrobe.

What has fashion taught you?

Friday Favorites | May 15th 2015

|Kendi Everyday|

When I have no desire to put effort into to what I wear (like this whole week), something like this is perfect to throw on.

|Skinny Taste- Grilled Pesto Shrimp Skewers|

I have been eating a lot of shrimp lately because it's so good, and easy to make. It's basically a win-win. I am really excited to try this recipe because pesto is bae.

|Mini Backpack|

I have been eyeing this since January. I NEED this in my life.

| What Courtney Wore|

I formed a love/hate relationship with off-the-shoulder tops. I always feel like my shirt is going to fall off and expose the goods #paranoid. I love them this week though! So easy to throw on and show a bit of skin.

|The Kitchen McCabe-Blueberry Lavender Cake

with Lemon Mascarpone Cream|

Cake, Cake, Cake, Cake, Cake,Cake....Enough Said.

We just recently read this book for our book club and it is sooo good! I won't say anything more about because next thing you know I will tell you the ending. However, if your looking to get back into reading or need a good book for your book club read this!

|This Time Tomorrow|

These pants speak for themselves.

#TurnUp | May 13th 2015

I love making playlists on YouTube, I am literally obsessed. If you have been around for a bit then you know my obsession with YouTube in general. I follow so many people it should be illegal, as well as the number of people I follow on Instagram. I literally cringe just thinking about it.

Anyways, that's a different topic, but today I wanted to share with you the latest tunes I have been listening to on repeat. I am that person who listens to a song 100 times, learns all the words, listens to it 100 more times, and then I hate it and wanna throw up every time I hear it. Is that you too? We will just say you do to make me feel less pathetic. There is some R&B, Hip-Hop, Country, Jazz (yes Jazz!) and pop, let me know what are your current favorites below!

Act A Fool-Kehlani

Nasty Freestyle- T- Wayne

Little Red Wagon- Miranda Lambert

Somebody- Natalie La Rose Ft.Jeremih

Next- Sevyn Streeter

Watch Me-Silento

Smooth Jazz

#OOTD Ideas | May 11th 2015

Some days are so easy for me to whip out a class A outfit. Other times I stare at my closet waiting for something to fly out at me...surprisingly it never happens. I wish I had the Hannah Montana spinning closet contraption because I wear the same thing due to the fact that all the clothes hanger are intertwined together like Kim and Kanye (#noshade I ship them).

------------------------------------------------

Honestly nobody in college cares what everyone else is wearing, and over half of the people wear workout clothes to class, even if they don't hit up the gym, which hey, do your thang. So usually I don't try that much unless it's a fashion class where I feel I need to display my amateur skills, and I didn't even have that this semester, but it's the summer now so #turnup. Anyways to the POINT! I put together some outfits you and I can go off of through out the week to give ideas, amp up the style, or show just how fabulous you already are.
