Good afternoon, lovelies!

It's that time of year again... halfway through second semester. Everyone is getting so excited that Spring is finally on it's way, but the midterms grind is real. Papers, presentations, and exams are being piled high. It's a high stress season... but it doesn't have to be! Today, I want to share a few of my favorite stress remedies.

3 Ways to Style Capes

This winter I have been loving the cape trend! Capes are perfect for cold days when you feel like being comfortable but still want to look put together. I styled this one from Tjmaxx three different ways. You can purchase a similar one here.

Life is Lovely.

A couple weeks ago, my friend Grace, my twin sister Kate, and I took a little road trip to celebrate Grace's birthday. It so much fun! We enjoyed some yummy food, found some great deals shopping and had a blast ice skating. This was the highlight of January for me. Putting shopping, ice skating, and all of the great food aside, our weekend reminded me of the importance of surrounding yourself with people who make you  genuinely happy. It was so nice to take a break from everything, throw our cares away and have some spontaneous fun. Sometimes it is so easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life and forget about all of the amazing people right in front of you. Don't be afraid to have fun and be you! Below are some of my favorite pictures from the trip. :)

Room Decor: Valentine's Day Edition

Valentine's Day is just around the corner. To me, there is no better way to celebrate than  decorating your room for the season. Being festive is so fun! Depending on whether you like the holiday or not, it will pass without you even noticing. Decorating my room allows me to get excited for it and enjoy the special day when it comes. Sprucing up your room is super easy and can be inexpensive if you shop right. Below are pictures of my room and tips and tricks to help you out!

{FAQ: Yes, I have two beds in my room even though it's just mine;) }

Collective Haul

I hope you all are having a great Sunday! Today I will be sharing some of the clothing pieces I have purchased in the past couple weeks. I found a ton of awesome deals at Nordstrom Rack and Altar'd State. I also placed an order on Shein, a website with many trendy pieces for great prices. If you haven't checked out this site, you really should! I highly recommend shopping there. This haul has a mixture of pieces for winter and the upcoming spring and summer. Enjoy!
