{Memorial Day} weekend

My Memorial Day weekend felt just like a preview of my summer. Unlike last year, buffalo wings were not on our menu. Instead, we headed down to Charleston, SC with an itinerary.

Hanging out on the boat, snuggling up for movie nights at the suite, game nights with the family (did anyone know Monopoly upgraded to credit cards?), catching up on the season finales of my favorite TV shows, walking around the streets of downtown Charleston, shopping at boutiques, visiting Fort Sumter, suffering through the strong winds--which I hope won't happen this summer since I'm a sucker for hats, and just enjoying the outdoors with possibly a Starbucks iced coffee to go pretty much summed up my swell weekend. In the suite, breakfast was brunch and it came with varieties of fruit platters.

How was your Memorial Day weekend?

Luxurious Soirées

The first time I laid eyes on this dress was over Spring Break. There was no denying that I was going to walk out of the store without purchasing this beauty and even my own mother knew it. No argument there. It isn't like me to leave a beautiful dress hanging in my closet for a long period of time. As May approached, I knew instantly that the annual Global Studies Spring Dinner would be the perfect place to show it off considering the fact that everyone took pictures and social events require a fancy dress code. At least that's how I perceive it. And what better way to say classy than with a perfectly structured blue dress and a pair of white intricate heels?

This three day Memorial Day weekend is much needed. I need a vacay out of Fayetteville. Charleston, SC...here I come!

Have a safe and fun weekend! xx

Keep your PROMises

The month of prom, the week before prom, the day before prom and the day OF prom can be very stressful. I would know.

Being a junior, last Saturday was the first prom that I had ever experienced. The numerous amounts of picture taking and socializing was like a fashion blogger's dream come true. The whole pre-prom dinner was very classy and fancy, which is everything I love about social events. Besides gushing about how dressed up everyone looked, I enjoyed the scrumptious miniscule meal that was prepared for us. As the day progressed, everything turned out smoothly. I had a blast with the best prom date ever. Honestly, I am so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family in my life.

 Best prom date ever.

Adored the mint green color and the intricate detailing of my friend's dress. I'm pretty sure I mentioned it a million times that night.
