The Perfect Party Dress

Where has 2016 gone?! I can't believe another year has come and gone, but 2016 has been full of lots of adventures and good memories. I started my senior year of high school, went on an eye-opening mission trip to Minneapolis over the summer, spent two weeks in Wisconsin at Pine Lake and Door County, made the decision to go to Iowa State, spent lots of time with friends, turned 17, made memories with family, celebrated one year of blogging, went to Texas for spring break, started experiencing some of my 'lasts' in high school, spent many nights watching football games, took lots of pictures, and had a blast at my first prom, as well as my last homecoming. Overall, 2016 has been a really good year and I am so excited for what 2017 will bring! In today's post I'm sharing the perfect party or special occasion dress (sorry I didn't get this out sooner!).


As you can tell, I'm pretty excited to ring in the new year! I found these glittery 2017 photo props at Target for $3! I can always count on Target for a good deal! 

This stunning black velvet dress from Target is perfect for a party or special event. I have been loving the look of the velvet trend, so I decided to give it a try myself.  I am not disappointed! 





I gave the dress a classy look by adding some sparkly pumps from my closet and pairing it with a girly pink purse from Forever 21 I bought a few months ago.


What's a party outfit without some sparkle!? I found these earrings a few months ago clearanced at Charming Charlie! They pair perfect with this marbled necklace I received in my latest Rocksbox shipment. 

Wishing you a very Happy New Year! Thank you so much for your support throughout 2016!

One Skirt: Four Ways

Francesca's is a dangerous store for me to go in to. Over spring break I went into Francesca's to just try on a possible graduation dress and ended up with a dress, skirt, and top- oops! Needless to say, I'm kind of obsessed with this skirt- it's so pretty and feminine! I love the colors and how easy it is to style. In today's post I will be sharing four ways to style this skirt. I am just obsessed with this skirt! The floral detailing is so pretty and feminine. Honestly I felt like it was a little out of my traditional comfort zone, but I decided to go for it! This tank is one of the tops I walked out of Francesca's with. The pink matched the colors in the skirt too perfectly to pass up! I purchased this lace top from LOFT last spring and I have found SO many different ways to style it! It pairs so nicely with this skirt and you can wear it tucked in or out-whatever best fits your preference. I personally like to tu...

Trip to Texas Tulips

Spring is here and what better way to celebrate than to make a trip to a tulip farm! Tulip’s are one of my favorite flowers, so visiting the rows of tulip’s put me in my happy place! The day we went was a gorgeous Sunday afternoon, so lots of people had the same idea as us to head on out there. Even though it was crowed, the tulips still looked amazing and didn’t look picked over at all! I thought I would share with you all today some pictures from my trip to Texas Tulips, as well as some details about how I wore my overalls! I was literally in my happy place here! The tulip's were beautiful and the weather was absolutely perfect! This hat from Target is the cutest thing ever! It's super versitile and I wore it a lot while I was down in Texas! To make it even better, the ribbon makes a little bow on the side!  These overalls are a favortie of mine this spring and I love that they have made a comeback! Growing up I used to wear them all the time! These black overalls are...
