While you can spend tons of time and money looking for a gift for Mother’s Day, odds are you mom is a lot like mine in not wanting anything material. “I just want all my kids home” and ” I just want the dishes to be done and dinner cooked” are all valid things to want for Mother’s Day but I’d prefer to combine these with some sort of mom-ento (pun intended) to show my mom appreciation. Here I’m sharing just a few gifts for moms this mothers day that are all under $50 (that way, you can spend more time and money on getting your whole family together for…

Formal Prom Dress Trends for 2019
Two Words: Prom Season. One of the most awaited days in a young teens life is Prom. Unfortunately, as a teen I had little to no money to spend on a prom dress. Instead of spending $500+ on a formal prom dress, I went with a prom dress that was much more affordable. I saved up all my babysitting money from the year so that I could splurge on a $200 dress for prom. It wasn’t at all my $500 Sherri Hill dream dress, but I love it to this day. I fully believe you should feel exceedingly beautiful for Prom, and luckily you can do that on a budget…

2019 Easter Dress Picks
Dresses dresses everywhere! I feel like every time I look at a calendar I find another reason to buy a dress. Christmas? Weddings? Is this a problem? I think not! (Ok actually, my bank account thinks it’s a problem). But in life you win some and you lose some. In this case I’m winning dresses and losing money but eh what’s more practical here really? As much as I do love buying dresses, spending a ton of money on a dress for every occasion just isn’t possible. How do you find cute affordable dresses? You hunt. Today I’m saving you the trouble of hunting for a 2019 Easter dress. Here…

Spring Guest Wedding Dress
As my weekends become more and more consumed by weddings, I’ve come to the conclusion that I just don’t have enough spring dresses to go around. (This is clearly a lie I tell myself so I can go shopping). So, I’m bringing you the spring version of my fall guest wedding dresses. (As if you couldn’t guess that already with the title “Spring Guest Wedding Dress”).I’m still in love with pastels and bold florals and patterns, but I’ve also fallen in love with Lilly dresses for Spring weddings. What could be more perfect for a spring wedding than high class, expensive, bright, Lilly Pulitzer, right? Don’t worry, I am not…

Valentine’s Day Sales
Sadly, Valentine’s Day has come and gone. I had an amazing Valentine’s Day with my girls eating 5 Guys burgers (and Chipotle) while catching up over Facetime. For some people Valentine’s Day is all about their significant other (to each their own) but for me, it’s all about my girlfriends. While I might not be stuffing my face with a burger anymore, there’s still a lot of Valentine’s Day going on, especially in stores. Stores are clearing out all remains of this heart filled holiday and the Valentine’s Sales are upon us! Which means, we can start preparing for next year (or stocking up on candy for the rest of…

Valentine’s Tees
So I’ll be honest, I’m a sucker for Valentine’s t-shirts and sweaters. As great as they are for this time of year, a simple tee with a heart graphic can be worn all year long too. And as cute as matching couples shirts are (I know, we can all be a sucker for them) not enough emphasis is put on self love this time of year (or anytime for that matter). Yes, some of these shirts I’m about to share with you are about love in its purest form, BUT I want to focus more on loving yourself for who you are and not relying on anyone else for your…

2019 Planners
“I’m late, I’m late, I’m late” is something you will almost never hear me say. Why? Because I’m a planner. I like to plan so much that when my plans change months down the line, I get extremely frustrated. Plans are permanent in my mind, permanent enough that, until recently, they always got written in pen. Now I understand, the planner life isn’t for everyone. But I promise, even a little bit of planning can bring a ton of organization to your life. That’s why I’m sharing some of my all time favorite planners to get you organized for 2019! 2019 Planners Just about all of these planners I have…
