#WeddingWednesday Guest Dresses

It’s 60% off right now!!!!

I seem to always have such a hard time looking for dresses to wear to weddings… but this year I’ve found so many beautiful dresses for weddings and I don’t have any to go to this summer! I’ve linked a variety of different dresses depending on the wedding you’re going to. I love wearing maxi dresses to weddings because they are so comfy and they make it perfect to wear flats and sandals to if there will be a lot of dancing.

I’ve also been loving midi dresses lately with a smaller block heel like these.
These shoes are some of the best $24 I have ever spent. They are so comfy and look much fancier than they are.

And shorter dresses look perfect with a comfy wedge. These are a pair I invested in 3 years ago and they are worth every penny. I’ve tried the knock offs of these and I do not recommend. Rarely will I tell you all to splurge unless it’s necessary!

Obvi I go for comfort when planning my outfits lol

What My First Year Post Grad Taught Me

Follow me

Hey Hey friends!!!
Let’s get reaaaal.

I really cannot believe I graduated college over a year ago. College was truly the best years of my life and I could never express my gratitude more.

This past year has been a complete whirlwind. For your whole life you and all of your friends are in the same stage of life.. school.. school and more school. Then boom you graduate. My friends were still in undergrad, going to grad school, getting real jobs, not getting real jobs.. everyone was all over the place. I think it’s so difficult because you go from such a high for four years, especially at the end with so many celebrations and exciting events, to sitting at home on your mom’s couch.

Personally, I did not start my job until 6 weeks after graduation and got the offer that same week. Those 6 weeks were so challenging. I moved home because I didn’t have a job at school to support myself anymore, so I was broke and I needed my parents to feed me lol but rly. During that time I was still trying to live my life in Clemson as much as I could while also being psycho about applying for jobs and interviewing as much as I could. I felt like a failure because I was poor, jobless and friendless (I had friends just none at home). It was such a fun time….. sike…

Eventually, I got my job and I thought things would be better… nah
Adulting is just hard…

This is what I learned my first year as an “adult”

1. Not having homework is seriously the best.

2. God is faithful and He will always provide.
I hate that I always doubt this and don’t always see it. He comes through every time.

3. Learning a new job is tough.

4. People are mean.

5. It’s okay to not be okay.
It’s funny how God has to teach me the same lesson several times to finally understand.

6. Everyone has a different path.

7. Save ur $$$ but still having a spending budget.

8. Fight to make friends. You really need them where you’re at, at least one or two.

9. The adjustment from college to adulting is hard.

Until next time.

XOXO,
E.

If you had $100….May 2019

You’ve got to start somewhere and the basics is always the best.

Your closet needs interchangeable pieces that can go with everything.

The first item is a pair of jeans. Like good jeans.

I have several pairs of these jeans. I got them at least three years ago and they all look brand new. I have a dark wash, two lighter wash, black and white. They’re all so good.

I would start off with getting the dark wash pair because it is easier to dress up and down and is more flattering. They don’t lose their shape, the color doesn’t fade, the fit is perfect. All of my friends and I have these jeans and we all rave about them.

Here are some times throughout the past few years I have worn the different colors.

CURRENTLY $24!!!!! STOCK UP!!!

After you pick up a pair or two of jeans you need some tops to wear!!!

Basics are the best place to start… I would start with good white tops and a variety of styles. White tops look so fab and add so much to outfits.

Here are some of my favs:

White tank

Thermal

Oversized white tee

I own all of these tops and all of these bottoms and there are deff my go to items. Every gal needs these in her closet!

XOXO,
E.
