Summer Nail Polish Faves!

Hey Loves! You may have already noticed, that I just love to paint my nails! I have a huge collection of various colors and brands. I paint my nails 2-3 times a week and it's relaxing and therapeutic for me. It's a way I can express myself and be creative. Above are some of the colors I've been just dying over and cannot wait to wear this summer! I'm currently wearing a combo of pink and orange right now! What nail polish colors are you currently loving? I'd love to hear and maybe you'll see me rocking one of your recommendations! ;)

Have a fabulous weekend!!

Sweet Dreams!

Hi Loves! Yesterday, I received some bad news and was in a funk for most of the day. But as I scrolled through my Facebook timeline, I stumbled upon this video that totally made me laugh out loud and really cheered me up! So check it out here if you need a boost today! Enjoy the photos!

I was so elated when YesWalker sent me this purse to review and style! It's a Big Buddha bag with the perfect year-round appropriate colors; mint, chartreuse, chocolate and cobalt, all tied together with rose gold metal detailing!! I can also wear it as a shoulder bag or cross-body which is perfect for the girl on the go, so if you love quality accessories and bags, go check out their site!

Viva Las Vegas!

My go-to daytime look I would wear in a sunny, gorgeous climate like Vegas! Don't forget your sunscreen! ;)

[ :: Statement Necklace :: Raybans :: Fedora :: ]

Around this time of year, I’m usually ready to just pack up and go on vacation or a road trip! I  haven’t traveled much this year, but last year, I went to Chicago twice, Memphis 3 or 4 times, and Atlanta and Cincinnati once. We are saving for our wedding so we may only take one trip or small vacay this year. But one of the places I’ve always dreamt of visiting was Vegas! 

If I got the chance to go to Vegas with my girls for my Bachelorette party or with my Fiancé for one of our getaways,  there is so much I would want to do! I would definitely play the tourist role to the fullest and visit the popular well known attractions. Most people would go there for the gambling and partying and that would be so much fun but y’all already know me, so the wonderful places to eat, shopping, and sightseeing would be at the top of my list! There is a humongous H&M store in Town Square Las Vegas that I would need a few hours with!! ;) 

Don’t even get me started on ALLLLL the restaurants I would need to try! For starters, Firefly, where we could pass around plates of bacon-wrapped dates, Manchego mac and cheese, chorizo clams and tortilla Española, all washed down with a pitcher of sangria or mojitos, I mean seriously, can you think of anything better? After we had shopped til we dropped and stuffed our faces to capacity with food and drinks, we would head off to go sight-see and maybe take pics for the blog! ;) Walking along the strip to check out the Bellagio’s world famous fountains and Mandalay Bay Beach would be absolutely gorgeous at night. After that, I would love to dance the night away at Tao or the Voodoo Rooftop Nightclub!

            Where are you off to next? I hope my little Las Vegas Guide has helped inspire you for your  next trip! 

Have a Happy Wednesday!

Since Mother's Day is just around the corner, I thought I'd share a little bit about my beautiful Mommy! (Yep, we still call her that lol) She is so strong, smart, determined, and full of life. She has inspired my two younger sisters and I all of our lives. She has always supported my dreams, from when I wanted to be a doctor, a business woman, and now as I become a teacher and she just loves my blog! She may or may not be the reason for my shopping addiction ;) She has always reiterated that "with God and hard work, you can do anything, so go for it!" Seriously, will that not just make you feel like you can be successful at anything you put your mind to? Well that's the kind of mom I've been blessed with. The absolute best...and I wouldn't trade her for any other. Love you Mommy!!

So now, we want to know what has been the best advice YOUR mom has given you!! Please make sure to tell us in the comments below! 

You can enter this giveaway through Rafflecopter now through Sunday, May 12th on any of the participating blogs.

Good luck and Happy Mother's Day to all your mamas!!
