Week of Summer Escape!

Summer Fun

 

Happy Saturday all! The past week I have been taking photos of my summer vacation! Most people get a whole summer off, but the joys of being a college student during this particular season did not allow me the entire summer! So, today I am going to share with you some of the fabulous food recipe's I tried, my pictures of summer's beautiful nature, and of course some adorable summer outfits I have been wearing this past week! Hope you enjoy :)

 

RECIPE MUST TRYS:

This mint lemon water is part of a healthy cleanse I did. It was not only pretty to look at, but super refreshing! You can also do cucumber water and it gives you the same refreshing thirst quenching taste!

 

Now this is one of my favs! First, you get a Bagel, then cut it in half. Next, you spread cream cheese on each side. Then, you slice up a tomato, and put it on top. Last, add pepper and you have you a delicious breakfast or snack!  

Last but not least, the watermelon popsicles! These beauty's are my summer food obsession. So yummy and perfect for this hot weather we are having. All you do is cut up a watermelon into slices, cut a slit on the green rhine, and place the popsicle stick in! Now, you have a light healthy fun treat :)   

 

PICTURES:

These are my summer week photos! For some, I photoshopped  a quote into because I was simply feeling crafty!

Tuesday Decor!

Room Décor

 

Happy Tuesday everyone! Today I was feeling creative. Room décor is one of my favorite things to not only look at, but take part in. I am going to share with you my room and just how I decorate it. My room is full of color, lights, and pictures. We all need a little light and color in our lives so adding it to our rooms just makes sense!

 

Now, my walls are clearly sea green. Such a fun color that really lightens up the room. I painted my desk lavender purple because it is my absolute FAVORITE color, so I simply had to incorporate it somehow. I quite fancy the idea of adding a globe to my desk, because it reminds me every time I sit there how I plan to travel the world. The big white shudders in the background are perfect to add Christmas lights to. Also keeps the sun out in the mornings so I am not blinded ;)

 This little collage of magazines is a very unique and creative way to not only add color to your dresser, but flaunt all those lovely magazines we are obsessed with reading. Mine is full of: Anthropology, Glamour, In Style, Seventeen, and COSMO Politian some of my favs!

This is my multilayer bookshelf where I watch TV! Always fun to incorporate bright vibrant colors and random things we love into our Shelves.

Now, my mirror used to be brown. That just didn't match my room, so I got my friend Brook Wooten to repaint it white with a metallic paint crackle. It looks amazing! I also like to write inspirational thoughts on my mirror to remind myself each day that God has a beautiful plan for my life, just like He does for us all :)

 

Got to love the hot pink butterflies. Just makes a bold beautiful statement of color! All you have to do is use a Cricut machine, or if your pretty crafty yourself, cut out shapes or objects. You can do this from construction paper or from old book pages for a more vintage look.

Here, is my night stand where I took my lamp and added pictures to it. I wanted to make it more personal and bright of course.

 

 This is a full shot {in a collage} of most of my room. I got my bed spread from Anthropology, they have by far the softest and cutest comforters I have ever seen. Some may think having a wall of pictures is a little strange, maybe they are right. But, to me memories are a huge part of our life. It's important to capture all of life's incredible moments. What better way to remember them than by letting them fill up our rooms with color, laughter, and happiness.

 

Well, everyone that's it for today! Hope you enjoyed the Room Décor post, don't forget to have a happy Tuesday! May your day be filled with smiles and laughter. xoxo

 

Monday Fashion.

Outfit of the Day.

 

Spring is my favorite time of year! And this outfit is just the thing for our Monday's outfit of the day. My closet is full of blues! Navy, turquoise, aqua, teal, baby blue, you name it I've got it! This assortment is a super great look if you own a lot of blues, and have no clue how to put them together. This navy scarf is really fun and adds just enough style. The denim blouse with silky white tank goes brilliantly with the lace navy skirt. The great thing about a fancy skirt is that it dresses the outfit up to a casual classy look. Perfect for those casual date nights or even a shopping spree! Below I have found some great look a likes

Light Up my Day.

Happy List.

Today I wanted to share with you all some fun unique things that never fail to make me smile. We all have those bad days where nothing and no one can seem to make it better. I personally hate those days. However, this list of mine always helps me to get through the day with a smile on my face, no matter how horrible it is going. So here is my happy list, hope you enjoy!
 

 

SUNFLOWERS

 

I have such a love for flowers it's unreal. And sunflowers are my absolute favorite! All I need to do is be given some sunflowers or look at them and I can't help but smile.

Laughter is the Best Medicine

 

This absolutely killed me because this is my mother exactly.

When washing a spoon. Every time.

When trying to find your bed after you turned off the lights.

F.R.I.E.N.D.S

Laughter is just good for the sole! If you ever see me 99% of the time I am either smiling or laughing. So, when I am having a bad day all I need to do is look at comedy and humor and I am I am back to smiling and laughing like normal. The perfect medicine for depression!

 

DISNEY MOVIES

 

The Little Mermaid

Up

 

Toy Story

Mulan

Aladin

Frozen

The Hunchback of Notre Dame

 

Cinderella

 

Tarzan

The Lion King

Hercules

Sleeping Beauty

 Finding Nemo

Pocahontas

Beauty and the Beast

 

 Something that will forever and always make me happy, no matter how dreadful the day, is watching my all time favorite Disney Movies. I love everything about it, the romance, innocence, beauty, colors, and imagination. Even when someone simply says "Disney" my face immediately lights up!

 

The Beach

 

The beach is the one place I feel I can get away from all the stress and have complete peace of mind. So if my week is bad enough that I need to get away for the weekend, I'll just drive on down to the beach. It has a way of making me superbly happy and completely stress free.

 

The Word

 

Last but not least, Scripture truly makes me smile. This verse is the one I always go to whenever I am having a terrible day. All I need to do is give God my worries and remember He can handle all that we cannot.

 

 I hope you can use these, or maybe it can even inspire you to have your own happy list! One that puts that smile on your face during those bad days. Have a happy Thursday everyone. Remember to keep a smile on your face and laughter in your heart this weekend! xoxo
