Exciting Life Updates!

I just realized I left my readers out of the loop on some of the life changes I have made recently that will be taking effect starting next week actually, so I thought I would share a few updates today.

I'm transferring schools! I brand myself as this fashion/college/faith/lifestyle blogger but I am now in my third year of college and never talk or post about it. This is because I was extremely unhappy at my previous university. I had no life there, I only had two friends at that school and was otherwise miserable. My college experience felt no different from my high school experience.

I made the spontaneous decision to apply to another university in April and literally completed my application on the spot. After that, I prayed about it and asked God to line things up if it was the right thing for me. I am not a spontaneous person at all and I have a lot of anxiety with every decision that I make but this one has been different. I have only visited the town my new school is in twice and since the beginning, I have been completely at peace with my decision to pack up and move there.

Once the school year starts I plan on going through sorority recruitment and joining a women's ministry group so if things go according to plan, I will have tons of fun things to share here on the blog!

I'm moving! With a new school comes a new place to call home! The college I will be attending in the fall is two hours away from Dallas so I will not be living in my current apartment any longer. I actually start moving into my new townhome next week!

Quitting my job... If you've been following along for the past year you probably know that I LOVE my job at The Impeccable Pig. Sadly, next Wednesday will be my last day working at The Pig (at least for now) and I am very sad about it. Dallas girls, come shop with me in Snider Plaza before I leave!!! :)

Although I am sad to be leaving this company that I have grown to love so much, I can't wait to see what job opportunities the boutiques around my new campus have to offer!

I am so excited to share more about these big changes in the upcoming weeks!

My 21st Birthday + XOXO Dining Room Review

Last month I celebrated my 21st birthday at one of the most Instagramable restaurants in Dallas! If I were a restaurant, I'd definitely be XOXO Dining Room. From the pink building, to the picture-worthy garden, to the DJ's music selection, it could not have been a more perfect place to celebrate my 21st.

TJ Maxx Dressing Room Try On!

I did some more shopping but honestly are you surprised? My Step mom, MB and I went to TJ Maxx in search of some Lilly Pulitzer at a good price and I hit the jackpot! And I took pictures in the dressing room to do another try on!

5 Audrey Hepburn Movies Free to Watch With Amazon Prime

It rained the entire Memorial Day Weekend here so I spent the long weekend watching movies. Audrey Hepburn is my favorite actress so I spent the weekend binge watching classic movies starring Audrey. I came across five of her movies on Amazon that are free to watch with Prime and thought I would share in case you're in need of a rainy day movie too.

A Day at Crocodile Encounters

In my Spring Break Recap post I mentioned going to a petting zoo and that I wanted to do a post about the adventure and that's what I am sharing with you today! The petting zoo was actually an alligator petting zoo that had other animals as well. The place was called Crocodile Encounters and it's near Houston. I must say that it was a bit sketchy (it was in some one's backyard!!) and I was a little bit nervous going in but it was a ton of fun! When you get there you enter through the gift shop where you can buy crocodile food that you can throw to them and lettuce you can feed to all of the other animals so we bought some to feed the animals. We didn't spend but a couple of hours there because this pale girl was quickly burning and I didn't want to be the color of a lobster the next day. And don't forget you can click on the pictures to view them larger!

Styling a Lilly Pulitzer Skirt

I recently purchased this "vintage' Lilly Pulitzer skirt from a thrift store and it has become one of my favorite spring clothing items. When I posted about this skirt on Instagram everyone went crazy so I thought it would be fun to share a couple of ways I have styled it so far.
