My best friend is getting married in TWO DAYS! I still can't believe how quickly time passes. It seems like just yesterday that we were planning our bachelorette party, and now she's almost officially Mrs. Clark :)

I've never been in a wedding before, much less a maid of honor. I don't have siblings, but I consider her my sister. This truly is an honor for me to a part of such a special day in someone's life. Although I'm extremely nervous about walking down the aisle, giving a speech, and helping her with anything she may need, I'm also really proud of her. She's overcome a lot of obstacles over the past few years, and she's grown into such an inspiring woman. I may be slightly older in years, but I look up to her. She has a fearlessness that I admire, and I hope to one day grab life by the horns and just go for it. What that is I don't quite know yet, but when I do, I hope I can lose all fear and doubt and throw myself into something like she does. You only live once!


I'm taking a few days off to enjoy her beautiful wedding, but I will be back next week :)

I've seen this look on countless bloggers this Summer. Denim shorts or cut-offs, a simple top, and strappy sandals. Now that I'm putting my Sole Society beauties to good use, I thought I'd try to recreate the popular blogger uniform. Other than a trip to the craft store to buy more wedding décor, my fiancé and I took the opportunity to simply relax this weekend. It was much needed!

I hope you all had a relaxing weekend too!

Just a quick post for today! I wanted to show you girls some new shoes I got from Nordstrom last week. The booties were part of the anniversary sale, while the strappy heels (although a good price already) were not. A pair for Summer, and a pair for Fall. Both equally cute!

While we are on the topic of shoes, here are a few more pairs that look enticing:












Have a great weekend!

Wearing: Nordstrom blazer, Marshall's tank, Loft skirt (check stores), Nine West pumpsKate Spade bagStella & Dot bracelet, Target necklace


A few months back, I fell in love with a flouncy white skirt from H&M. I stalled on buying it, and when I went back several weeks later after giving it much consideration, of course the pretty white skirt of my dreams was gone. How many times has that happened to you? So frustrating! I looked at several H&M locations, but it was nowhere to be found. You can imagine my delight when I went into Loft last week and saw this skirt hanging from the racks at the back of the store. Although not as full or flouncy as the one I missed out on, it was on sale for only $14.00! The reduced price tag solidified that I needed to snap it up before I made another mistake. It's great for Summer, but I can also picture myself wearing it with darker jewel tones and other neutrals come Fall. Moral of the story? Don't let special pieces get away, you might regret it!
