Friday Five

We're bringing it back to an old school Friday Five with just a bunch of random things I've liked this week. I have serious plans to shoot a bunch of outfit looks this weekend, so fingers crossed I actually follow through and don't get sucked into things like all day brunches :) 
PS22. These kids never disappoint. Also, this will more than likely bring you to tears. Don't say I didn't warn you!

Punny Jokes. I love a good corny joke (ask any of my past and current coworkers) and Buzzfeed nailed it with these. 
S'mores. I mostly just love that these are Troop Beverly Hills inspired s'mores. That was, no, still is, one of my all time favorite movies.

Smile & Wave. I've been living in this t-shirt from Banana Republic. I always say, just smile and nod and act like you know what you're talking about. This shirt is SO comfortable, too.

Kelsea Ballerini. This 90s mashup of all the best songs of my childhood is the best way to start your Friday.

Today marks the start of my 3 day weekend (Happy #NationalTequilaDay) and I have absolutely nothing planned and I can't wait! 
Hope you all have a great weekend and thanks for reading! 

I Believe In Nashville

Well, to say it's been a whirlwind few weeks would be quite an understatement. I got a new job, packed up a U-Haul and drove 20 hours to my new life in Tennessee all within 3 weeks! (Huge shoutout to my mom and brother for helping me move). So, after a brief hiatus, I'm back at it. And what a better way to get back into the swing of things than with a Nashville themed post. 
My roommate and I spent Easter enjoying the 70 degree weather and took the opportunity to take a few touristy pictures before we got lunch. Which was really just to wash down all the chocolate I hadn't eaten in 40 days during lent :) 
I got a little preoccupied posing for these pictures that I forgot to even focus on any parts of my outfit, mostly my necklace that I'm in love with that you can't even see. Oh well! Next time.

How did you spend Easter Sunday?

Ropes & Plaid

Happy Tuesday! Only 2 days til the weekend (today doesn't count and Friday doesn't count - logical math)! 
This weekend I had my first Dave & Busters experience, and let me tell you, it is nothing like Laguna Beach made it seem like. You know the episode, where Kristin and Jessica make Alex H. get a random balding guys number and they look totally cool just having a casual girls night at 17 years old. Well, in reality, it's mostly screaming children. It was still fun, and I am the reigning basketball shootout champion, so all is well in the world. 
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen a little preview of this outfit. I was getting ready one morning last week, throwing clothes all around my room, happy with absolutely nothing in my closet. Until I threw this Banana Republic sweater and plaid button down next to each other and I had my morning epiphany - the two obviously needed to be worn together. I used to LOVE the sweater layer trend. In high school, this was my go to outfit - a cable knit sweater (probably from the Gap), usually paired with two polos and... I'm seriously cringing as I write this... two intentionally popped collars. (Ouch. That was rough.) Anyway, put on some booties and voila! I threw on my utility jacket and was off to work. 
P.S. My hair had started out straight the morning these pictures were taken... 

And just for good measure....
