School, Ew.

School is about to start, are you ready? Well I'm not sure I am. Homework isn't the end of the world at least we can feel productive. And sitting in class, can keep us from sleeping our lives away. We can meet new people and create new friendships. And reconnect with old friends. These friendships make the struggle of going to school all worth it. And maybe it's just me, but relationships is the definition of my life. I love people, I want to be with others, I need to spend time with others. I find that in our downtime like summertime, we can be lazy and we might not reach out to spend time with others as often as we should. And with the coming school year we have this wonderful opportunity to spend time with others. Get to know them, care about them and their lives. Fellowshiping (so not a word) is what I believe we are here for, so we need to remember daily to try our very best not to isolate ourselves. Even though our time is limited between the activities we need to spend our time with like studying and working. Let's not forget, what we are here to do. Our sole purpose in life is to love the Lord and all others. It is the simplest of tasks yet for our self centered lives we struggle with this all the time. So we may feel like studying for this test means we must give up our social lives. But that would be a waste of a day, because we are given a small amount of time to do what was asked of us. This coming school year it is my goal to make friendships and get to know my peers around me. Spend time with others and learn to love without ceasing. And I hope that you have a goal for this school year too, and I pray we do our best to accomplish everything we wish for ourselves.

Upside of School? Study Music!

Walk the Moon- Anna Sun
Casey James- Crying on a Suitcase
(So this should be sad, but I love it and the beat and sound make it an up-bringing number).
Of Monsters and Men- Mountain Sound


Mumford and Sons- I will wait


Alabama Shakes- I found you


My Morning Jacket- Circuital

And now Taylor Swift made a song for the stand up for cancer fundraiser night. It is a tribute to a young boy (4) who lost his life to cancer last year. If you buy the song all the proceeds go to Stand up to cancer. This brought tears to my eyes. Most emotional thing ever.

Fall Fashions.

As much as I love summer, I also have a secret love for fall fashions. I love the colors, they are deep and beautiful. I also love that fashion week is in September to start us all off on the right foot. So without further adieu let's allow my clothing favorites speak for themselves.
I love the dress collar I think it's a great style that's old and girly. The trench makes it perfect for early fall. This outfit is simple and it's classy. LOVE.

Plum is such a good fall color, we all need an item of clothing that is plum colored. This is an easy effortless outfit, yet it is flattering and fantastic at the same time. I need this skirt.

This outfit is a bit quirky, but I like it. The boots may be a bit bright, but in a darker matte color I think the boots would be perfect. The sweater with the skirt is a good combo and it's cute. And it would keep zee body warm in the colder months.

Again great fall colors coming together. You would be pretty cold I'll admit, but before October ends this would be a fun girl look. I love the cream color for fall matched with black and a deep red. Good good fall colors everywhere!

Plum colored pants these are a win! Really the only thing I love about this outfit the shirt and the purse are a no go. But these pants are a great color and super fashionable. Those who wear pants should go out and look for these, love love love.

This is so me. And I think this outfit couldn't be better executed. The colors come together so well they are perfect for fall. The outfit is warmer with the jacket and the boots. And it's cute cute. I want this now.
We all need these loafers, they are like the new flat for fall. I love them in neutrals to match everything and in brights to remind us fall and winter don't mean out style dies. A must have.

I love the colors this dress displays. The burnt orange and the brown such good fall colors. I feel like fall is all about the color, not necessarily is your piece in style but the color vibe. And this dress is absolutely fantastic and displays that perfectly.
This denim look is great and all that is needed is to add the great cream color.

boots boots boots, are so great to keep warm. Suede boots are also such a must. And in good fall colors too like brown, black, grey. And they spice up any outfit.

These are so cute and chic. I think that they can be pulled off well, and that you should go out and buy them. If only I wore pants these would be mine.

Denim on denim is making a comeback and I think it's pretty cool and effortless.

This is such an easy look that is also trendy. Just wearing a simple pair of jeans with these wonderful  oxfords. Which by the way are a fashion must and everyone needs to own a pair. Paired with a dark blazer which is a great staple piece that makes any outfit pop.

Burgundy is also a great fall color, so rich and so beautiful. And then paired with the pencil skirt, blazer, and oxfords. This outfit is chic and professional. And the blazer can be taken off for a more laid back look.
This jacket it's like Ashley's and we all could use one of these they are fantastic! And it's an easy outfit to pull together, that still looks great.


I love fall fashion trends, and I'm so excited to put together some great outfits. And I hope this has inspired you to do the same!
