Lilly Pulitzer Agenda



It's that time of year when I start searching for a new planner. This year I am definitely going with a Lilly Pulitzer agenda. I love all the colorful, girly designs and prints. I don't know about you, but something so girly and colorful makes me so happy! I have 3 picked out and can't choose between them, they're all so cute! 
Pres-sale is going on now and they're expected to ship by 6/12/15.

Lauren Conrad's Minnie Collection


As a child and even now as a adult, I love everything Minnie Mouse. The new collection at Kohl's from Lauren Conrad absolutely melts my heart. I thought her Cinderella Collection was something fit only for a fairy tale princess, but this collection of Minnie Mouse worthy dresses, dotted shorts and graphic tee's are her best yet! Everything is available now, online and in-stores at Kohl's. 
I've linked all my favorite below, I think I may be sporting my ears in the office from now on!

Birthday Wish List

Today is my 27th birthday! It's hard to believe that I've been on this earth for 27 years! Where has the time gone? I guess it true what they say, "times fly's by the older you get!"
In my 27 years, I've done so many things, good and bad. Some I may not be so proud of;  I've lost touch with some pretty great friends, went through those horrible & rebellion teenage years, got a tattoo and maybe spent way too much money on lipstick. But all the good things defiantly out way the bad; earning my black belt in Taekwondo, graduating high school, meeting Nathan, getting married and buying our first house together. What will the next 27 years bring? Kids, a new job or a fancy vacation to Paris (hey, a girl can dream). 

While those last few things may or may not be be in my future, here are few things presently on my "wish list" for this years birthday.  
I'm sure by now everyone has heard about the surprise Kate Spade sale. Everything is up to 75% off! I've linked my favorites from the sale below. I already have several things pictured on there way home to me!! {Happy Birthday to me!} Hurry, this sale only has one day left! 
One thing I'm really looking forward to is my birthday dinner with the family. Mom always cooks my favorite meal (her homemade meatloaf) and I get a slice of cheese cake for dessert! Yum! 
Other than dinner and my Kate Spade splurge, I'll probably relax around the house with a great bottle of wine and catch up on my reading list. 

Kisses, 
The Little Lady

Weekend wrap up; Meet Lemmy







I had a wonderful weekend, how about you guys? We relaxed, did a few things around the house, I made several freezer meals for the next few weeks, oh and we got a new puppy! Meet Miss Lemmy, our new English bulldog, she's 8 weeks and full of energy! We already have two spoiled Chihuahua's (that are always sneaking in on outfit pictures!), why not add one more loveable puppy to the mix.
If your not familiar with this breed, they require a lot of attention in the beginning. Its basically like having a toddler running around the house, because she's into everything. This will prep us for kids, right?! {LOL}
Because we were running around all weekend chasing a puppy, my look was laid back and comfy. Striped button up with a pair of Levi shorts. I usually don't like to wear short, but I love these Levi's. I've had them for a couple of years and they are the perfect jean shorts in my opinion.
Happy Monday!

Detox Waters

While hunting through Pintrest one day, I came across a pin featuring detox waters. Now, I've heard about these before, but never tried them out for myself. I think its pretty crazy what some of these drinks claim to do for you, (belly/fat burning, clearer skin, etc.) when they only have water and an assortment of fruits in them. I put it out of my mind until I came across one claiming to help with head aches.
Now, if you don't know me very well, then you don't know I suffer from chronic migraines and headaches almost daily. Anyone who's had a migraine before knows that it puts you out of commission as soon as it starts and can sometimes last for several days. I've always been on the hunt for something else to try and treat these life ruiners  , but I think its something I will always continue to live with.
So, with that being said, I don't have much hope with this head ache relieving detox water, but I'm willing to try anything to prevent these suckers! I've been drinking this specific water for about a week now (no headaches yet!) and I really do love the taste and the freshness. This one also states it supposed to help burn belly fat in 10 days, so who knows!  If anything, it will just be something I drink instead of plain water.
I've also linked some other variations below I've been enjoying. If you try one out, let me know if it works for you!

Maxi







I love an easy breezy look, something that you can throw on and out the door you go. Maxi's paired with a tee is just the thing to feel put together, but yet it's so simple. I'm very short, but I still love to wear maxi's, I always feel to glamorous when I wear one! {LOL} Remember there are no rules in fashion. If you wanna wear something, wear it! It doesn't matter what others think, as long as you feel great!  
Say hello to my Chihuahua, Capone. He always likes to make his presence in all my pictures.

Weekend Wrap Up; Mother's Day


Cara, Mamaw, Mom, Me, Megan and Vanessa 









Over the Mother's Day weekend, I was fortunate enough to spend the day with not only my mom, but, my grandmother and several others. Anytime we get the family together, our time is filled with stories, laughter and food! I love getting together with family, we always know how to have a good time.
I have to give a shout out to mom, she has worked incredibly hard the last year working out and going to the gym everyday. Her hard work has defiantly paid off, she's lost about 70 pounds since she started. I can't begin to say how proud I am of her, for sticking to her goals and still continuing to work hard. My brother and I are very luck to call her our mother, her and my dad have been so good to us our whole lives, I don't know how we'll ever begin to repay them.
I hope everyone had a wonderful mother's day.

Foodie Fridays; Stuffin' your face foods!

Pinterest can defiantly be your best friend when it comes to finding great foodie favorites that best suits the need of your family. If you follow me on Pinterest, then you already know that I pin new recipes to my "Get in my Belly" board daily. I love hunting for new and exciting recipes to test out and see if they are YAY!! or NAH. 
As everyone does from time to time, they get behind with things! I didn't have anything prepared to write about for this weeks "Foodie Friday", so I thought it would be kinda cool to see recipes I'm dying to try out. 

Keeping reading below if your interested in what I wanna stuff my face with! :)

Oven Baked Meatball Sandwiches

I think this would be a great weeknight dinner or something easy to prepare for a get together like the super bowl. I know my husband would defiantly enjoy these.

Spinach Lasagna Rolls


I love lasagna, but making it is a pain. I think this would be so much easier to make on any week night and I think that the individual servings could work a lot better depending on your family. I would need more sauce though, these look naked! 
Gina's Skinny Recipes 


Creamy Tomato & Spinach Pasta

This meal just looks so fresh and appealing to me, and the best thing, its a budget friendly meal. Cooking dinner doesn't always have to be expensive. I really enjoy this website, they have every kinda meal you could dream of that's figure friendly for your wallet.

Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes

Nothing is better than made from scratch mashed potatoes, in my opinion. I could have them with every meal, they are my comfort food. This looks like a super easy recipe that anyone could make if you own a slow cooker (which everyone should!).

One Faith Boutique


















Recently, I had the pleasure of working with One Faith Boutique to show off some items. This boutique caters to sizes 2-16 and they feature many unique and trendy items to suit everyone's style and needs. I heard about this boutique through my mom and I soon as I visited their website, I knew that I would love to work with them. On their "About Us" section they talk about spreading God's love with every customer and order; every order placed a portion is donated to charities such as the American Bible Society, My Stuff Bags and more. I love that this company is very charitable and willing to help out others through their business. I think that is a very rare find these days. 

I picked out two completely different looks to show just how wide of variety they offer. My favorite is the mint dress, that is great for a night out. I just love how free flowing it is and the color is perfect for spring and summer. I think this would also look great with a belt to show off the waist.  I paired it with some pointy kitten heels from Zara to dress it up even more. I didn't feel like this needed a lot of jewelry, so I decided to pull my hair back and show off these darling Kendra Scott earrings. 
The second look, is more boho and carefree. Wouldn't this be perfect for all those summer outdoor concerts?! This tunic is so soft and easy to wear. I love all the weaving and the fringe at the bottom, it gives it a very unique look. I paired this with my "John Lennon" sunnies, stone bangles, boyfriend jeans and a great pair of metallic braided sandals. This look just screams summer!

I highly recommend checking out their website. Everything is very affordable, and the clothing is high quality. I know you will be able to find something you love.
* If you place an order now through May 9th you are entered in a chance to win a $250 shopping spree! 

Happy Shopping!
