The tax free holiday for Florida kicks off this weekend which means school is almost here. I’ve done just about every school & academic related summer round up this summer except for back to school clothes shopping. I did a college dorm essentials round up, a dorm room inspo round up, even a preppy girls school supplies round up. Does it show that I might miss school a little bit? I just can’t help that I want to vicariously live another life sometimes through the interwebs. Most of those times it includes shopping. Which is why I’ve decided to do another round up on back to school clothes shopping. In…

The Preppy Girls School Supplies Guide
Schools right around the corner so let’s get right into this preppy girls school supplies guide. As far as I’m concerned, you can never have too much school or office supplies. Sure you may have 2 pairs of scissors, 3 tape dispensers, and 12 backpacks, but they’re all necessary. My back to school post from last year I feel like was pretty epic, but there’s always room to expand on school supplies. We won’t just cover pens & paper, but everything you would need throughout the school day. Also, this week & weekend are the tax free holiday in Florida. School supplies under $15, clothes under $60, and electronics under…

Top 10 Dorm Room Essentials
Dorm Room Essentials: My favorite summer of shopping to date. One thing I miss during this time of year is back to school shopping. I bought so much cute stuff and had such a great time in the dorms. Even when I ended up not going to my dream school last minute, I was paired with the most accommodating and sweet roommate there ever was to walk the earth. When I originally started shopping for college stuff, I was under the impression I would be living in an apartment. Therefore I didn’t buy any microwave, or coffee pot, or mini fridge. When I had to switch schools (you know, two weeks…

What to Pack for an Alaskan Cruise in June
I’m going on a cruise next week! An Alaskan Cruise to be more specific. Truth be told, I have no clue what to pack for an Alaskan cruise in June. Not. A. Clue. If I’m being honest, I don’t understand the concept of an Alaskan cruise. Cruises are supposed to be warm and tropical on the open ocean. Alaska just isn’t that. I hear good things about Alaskan cruises all the time and I don’t doubt I’ll have a great time. So in order to get me ready and excited, I’ve started planning what I’m going to pack. From the research I’ve done, packing for Alaska is only slightly different…

2019 Summer Swimsuit Guide
I feel like it has been ages since last summer. It’s hard to believe that about a year ago I was getting all my “basics” together to start Central Florida Chic. One of my first post was about summer essentials. I’ll tell you something, I’ve learned so much since that post but I also know I’ve learned little to nothing compared to those who blog for a living or who have blogged for years. So as a little throw back (mostly for myself) I’m putting together a 2019 summer swimsuit guide. I’ll talk about just a few of the swim suit trends I’m loving this season like, stripes, mesh cutouts,…
