Home is Where the Heart is

Hello Lovelies!

Halloween is my boyfriend and I's 4 year anniversary. He lives in New Orleans and I'm still in school in Lafayette so i'm stuck here. I've spent 95% of the last four years going back and forth to NOLA. While I have moved a few times since we have been dating he has stayed in the same place. I even have plans of moving there in August. So this weekend we ran into different places while running errands that all asked the question "Are y'all from here?" my response was always "he is". After breakfast Sunday morning, we went for a drive through the French Quarter. Guy out of nowhere says "you know this weekend 3 different people have asked us if we are from here and you have always replied he is, that kind of upsets me." When I asked him why that upset him he said that I spend more time in NOLA then Lafayette and that I've been there for 4 years. So that got me thinking. He is right, I do spend more time there and it feels more like home than this place does. I've always known that I would move to NOLA once I was finished with school. My boyfriend is there and so is my dog. So if home is really where the heart is well then I am proud to say that New Orleans is my home! More specifically the building on the right is home.

*** I've also added some ways to follow me with fancy buttons!

What I Wore

Dress: Gift Necklace: F21 

I wore this dress for a night out at the new L'Auberge casino in Baton Rouge.It was a great time minus the fact that I lost all the money that I was given to gamble with but Guy kept reminding me that the money was given to me to gamble with and it wasn't my money that I lost. I just kept thinking yeah but I could've pocketed it and bought a really nice purse with it. Oh well! I also can't wait until the temperatures drop a little so I can wear this dress with these boots:

How cute will that outfit be? HURRY UP FALL!!!

High Five For Friday

 Hello Fashionistas!

School has been keeping me insanely busy these past few weeks.

1) This guy running down the drive way when you pull up screaming NANNY and rapping his cubby little arms around you. BEST FEELING EVER! 

2) My always supportive sister! I love her and don't know what I would do without her.

3) Finding out that I will graduate at the end of Summer 2013. WOOOHOOOO

4) My chicken spaghetti! It was my second time making it and I'm proud that I made it on my own.

5) Little Miss Killian Leigh decided to make her debut on Wednesday. 

Its hard to focus on the bad stuff that happened this week (tire blow out & someone smashed my car mirror) when so many good things have happened. For more High Five For Friday moments check out Lauren's Blog!

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

August

Helloo FASIONISTAS!

August is half way over which means classes start Monday and my birthday is Tuesday! I'm also proud of myself for making it this far into August and not chopping off my hair. I usually spend a year growing out my hair to cut it off in August when I can't take the heat anymore. Pinterest makes me want to chop it off and keep it long all at the same time. Oh that little devil. I know once the first drop in temperature happens I will be grateful to have my long hair to keep my ears warm. Speaking of cold and pinterest! I am 34 pins into my fall/winter board and its giving me tons of inspiration for the clothes I currently own. (ALWAYS A PLUS!) So today I thought I would leave you with some cold weather inspiration for my pinterest board!

Fall Favorites

Hello Fashionistas!

I am so ready for fall! The other day I spent 30 mins curling my hair to just have it destroyed by the humidity in 2 seconds. FAIL. So lately i've been online shopping and wishing for fall and pinning Halloween items on pinterest. One of the things i'm excited about for fall are these super cute sweaters from Old Navy they have heart, stripes and polka dot ones. J. Crew also has similar ones but i'm on an Old Navy budget. So here is a look I put together all from Old Navy!

Crewnecks & Scoopnecks
Skinny Denim

These pieces are very versatile and can be worn so many different ways! Not to mention the red, white and black would be perfect for a UL game!
