my favorite memorial day sales

There are so many great sales this weekend! Even though I'm trying my hardest not to spend any money on new clothes, all of these deals are certainly a temptation. I've listed a few of my favorite stores and their discount codes, plus some things I'm coveting below!

Happy shopping! I'll be living vicariously through all of you!

spring haul & try on!

You guys, I haven't shopped for new clothes since December. Isn't that crazy? I've been trying to cut back on my spending and the amount of clothes that I have, and to be honest, it's really refreshing. But since my birthday is coming up {it's next Monday!}, I thought I would treat myself to a few things and wanted to share it with you!

I've never done a try on video before but love watching them. I think they're the most helpful since you can't really tell what an item will look like by just holding it up to the camera. Hopefully you guys like this just as much as I liked filming it! :]

All the links to the exact items are on my YouTube channel!

lemon print

1. J. Crew Jackie Cardigan // 2. Hat Attack Lemon Clutch // 3. Kate Spade Limoncello Notebook // 4. Herschel Supply Co. Backpack // 5. Soludos Lemon Espadrille Flat // 6. Kate Spade Lemon Tumbler

One of my most favorite things in life are lemons. From drinks to desserts, tees to accessories, candles to notebooks - if there's a lemon on it, there's a strong chance that I'm going to want it. And luckily for me {unluckily for my bank account}, lemon-printed everything is out in full force. There are so many fun things with a lemon print out right now that my closet is in danger of overflowing with the color yellow!

I mentioned some of my favorites above, including one thing that I'll be including in a haul video coming next week. My lemon print wishlist is quite long so I've linked to more below! I'm especially loving these lemon slice earrings and this sweet dress!

five days in the philippines

So this blog is wayyyyyyy late. My parents and I went to the Philippines in February 2016, and while I was there, I took quite a bit of video footage to try and put into a little video. Then I had an incident with my memory card and old laptop not agreeing with each other and decided to put aside the project.

Well, about two weeks ago I decided to give it a go and try that memory card in my iMac. And it worked! I was so excited because I was sad over the thought of losing any of the footage that I took. I hope you guys enjoy the video! It's full of food and scenery, aka lots of traffic ;]

mother's day gifts

Mother's Day is just under two weeks away! If you haven't gotten a gift for your lovely momma, don't worry because it's not too late! I promise {slash hope!} that there's something for every mom out there in this post. I especially love these incredibly comfortable and stylish black flats, shoes I actually own multiple pairs of. And how great is this deluxe perfume sampler? She can test out multiple scents and then receive a full-size bottle of the one she loved the most for FREE! A total bonus if you ask me.

What are you getting your mom for Mother's Day?!
