It’s no secret that I love a pretty lighthouse so perhaps the mystery lies in the why I like them so much. It wasn’t until recently that I even found out for myself! Being a Michigan girl I’ve always loved the lake but over the course of the past few years, I’ve found an incredible sense of peace there… [ Read More ]
I do not have enough words to tell you how much fun I had frolicking on the beach with this kite and my two good friends. We stumbled upon the most beautiful day in Holland, Michigan (my favorite place) and took full advantage spending most all of it outside. The tassels on my dress were perfectly whimsical for the windy day and the red color was even better as this was likely my last trip the the Big Red lighthouse for the summer. This dress was… [ Read More ]
Lately more than ever before, as I stand at my happiest, I’ve found myself scared that I’ll get hurt. Seems random right?! Not to me. I guess I’ve just reached a point of being content with where I’m at and I don’t want anyone or anything to take that away from me. I’ve always said that I do not wish a broken heart on anyone, it’s just terrible! On one hand, I think experiencing heart break on a few different occasions has given me the opportunity to genuinely appreciate the times that are good. On the other hand, I think it has also left me fearful that I might end up feeling that way again. It wasn’t until I sat at church on Sunday and heard the Pastor say, “faith over fear” that I realized I had nothing to be scared of. Even in the eye of the storm, God remains in control. As we experience heart breaks in whatever form they may come in, I truly believe that… [ Read More ]
I tend to wear my sunnies on and off and truthfully, more times than not, prefer to go without! They usually end up on top of my head and occasionally I put them on my eyes. With that said, be prepared to only be seeing sunnies for a little while! Last Thursday I woke up with what I thought were terrible allergies. When I looked in the mirror it occurred to me that I had a lot bigger problem than just some allergies! My eyes had swelled to the point of barely being able to see. I looked SO SCARY and honestly, really funny. I wish I was brave enough to share the picture because it really is worth a good laugh. As it turns out, I had pink eye in both eyes. Super unfortunate. I’m no longer contagious and I feel fine but my eyes are weirdly still a bit swollen. So anyways, if anyone is looking for an amazing pair of sunglasses (to hide pink eye or simply to just wear), click the link up top because I absolutely love the ones I am wearing from Tory Burch… [ Read more ]
Dress: Dezzal, Earrings: Kendra Scott We did it! We finally and officially moved! It took what seemed like the entire summer but the papers are signed and my family is on to new beginnings! Our hearts are heavy but we are looking forward to a fresh start. I truly feel like the best is yet …
Shop My Outfit Here If you’re looking for a playful romper, I think I’ve found it! This little gem is flowy and fun, it just makes you want to shake it. I did some shaking and while the romper looked pretty, I just looked awkward. Pretty true to form so no shame here! Anywho, I …
Wellp…I somehow managed to delete a large majority of the pictures from my old blog posts (among some other things). I am 100% completely and totally technologically challenged. Not the best start to my day! While they were certainly old pictures and sometimes even embarrassing/funny to look back on, I love the little reminder of …
Dress: Goodnight Macaroon, Wedges: Steve Madden, Earrings: Kendra Scott, Napkins: TJ Maxx “When you’re in chaos you match your napkins to your outfit or your outfit to your napkins. I’m not even sure but it rocks.” <– This is the text I sent to my friends on my way to Holland where I was meeting …
Daisy Strapless Romper: Lilly Pulitzer, Jack Rogers: Nordstrom (anniversary sale!) Rompers are such an easy throw and go in the summertime, especially in the midst of this extreme heat we are having!

New Balance: J.Crew, Lou & Grey Muscle Tee Dress: Loft I’m currently having a love affair with these shoes! Not only are they super comfortable but they also have a fun pop of orange and blue that I just love. The grey in the shoe makes them neutral enough to wear with just about anything, …
