Back to School Clothes

Here's what I will be wearing on the first day of school! This is the only day of school I am every really excited for, when you get to see people you have not seen in forever. Your only homework is normally to read your syllabus, or write about yourself. I could not find the actually jean jacket I have, which I bought from Urban Outfitters, and slightly DIYed. I am so excited that I finally found somewhere in my area to monogram my backpack! Everywhere in my town was having issues with their monogramming machines, so I had to go somewhere a little further than I would have liked. But, I'm glad I did it because it looks so cute!

Second Day of School! I love this outfit that I made online, but unfortunatley the jean jacket and black tank top in this are out of stock. So I will use my old gladiators,  Free People black tank top, and a jean jacket I got from Revolve Clothing. SO this is basically what my outfit will look like, but slightly different!

J Crew Picks

Hello!

I have started transitioning from simply shopping for summer clothing to shopping for summer weather appropriate clothing that would also be school appropriate. These are some of my favorite transitional pieces! I think I might wear the polka dot dress for the first day of school, with either a jean jacket or a jean vest, and maybe pair it with fancy sandals. Dreading school, but looking forward to having something to dress up for again!

Gearing Up for July 4th

Hello Everyone!

Happy first day of July! Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I have developed a little bit of a writers block. There are only three more days to July 4th, which I cannot believe. This summer has all ready flown by. In the spirit of Independence Day, I have put together some red white and blue favorites of mine which would be perfect for festivities on the fourth.

A Frenchie Update: My Frenchie comes in less than 2 weeks. I am really excited, and actually really nervous as well. She will stay with us for two weeks. I will learn who my in-school French exchange student is sometime this summer, as well. For Mae, my summer Frenchie, I am currently planning what we will be doing. I still need a lot of help deciding what I should do with her when she is here. I will be taking her to eat out alot, so she can get a feel for all the types of food that America has to offer. Some ideas include:

-Shopping at the Mall
-Tubing
-Paddle boarding
-Outdoor concert
-Beach Day
-Zumba or Hot Yoga class
-Trampoline Room (many different names for this, basically it is a giant room full of trampolines!!)

My Lilly Pulitzer Planner arrived in the mail. I am actually in love with it and cannot wait until next month, when it begins!

Back from Duck!

Hello Everyone!

I just got home from Duck a few hours ago. I am totally exhausted! Some notable things to mention were how I went parasailing again, and how I drove a wave runner/jet ski for the first time. Firstly, parasailing is amazing and anyone who is not deathly afraid of heights should definitely try it. It really is not that dangerous at all, and it gives you the best views you could ever imagine. Jet skiing is sooo much better when you are actually driving the vehicle! You feel such a rush and so free, but that probably sounds really strange. I will share any photos I will get from the trip as soon as I get them! I am beyond thankful to my friend kHr for inviting me two years in a row. We've made so many amazing memories.

Secondly, clothing update! I am so excited to finally have purchased the seersucker bandeau bikini from J. Crew. I love seersucker, and having a seersucker bikini will be such a great investment. 

I think it will be great for my yearly summer trip to Nantucket, my favorite place on Earth! It is one of the only places where I can really unwind and enjoy myself. My family loves the island like one would love their childhood home. ACK for life!

 Last summer, I was obsessed with Lennon and Maisy's cover of the Robyn song "Call Your Girlfriend". I just was messing around on YouTube, and found this cover of the same song by Dutch singer, Christopher. His voice blew me away, and he is so cute! His version is very relaxing and simple.

Monday I will be visiting William and Mary. So excited! Can't wait to judge my family's favorite college for myself. 

XOXOXO,

Kelsey
