Hey ya'll, i have been packing for my beach trip coming up next week so I figured I would share some of my "essentials" with you guys! I linked everything down below.

I have really been loving the "High-Waisted" swim bottoms trend. They are so cute and flattering, but still modest at the same time. I picked up these bottoms from Dillards and the top is from Kortni Jeane.
Hat: Wal-Mart | Sandals: Academy

  

For a cover-up i chose this really pretty floral romper i picked up for only $10.00 at Ross. This monogrammed bag was a gift, the sunglasses are from Target, and these cute koozies are from Lauren James.
I made sure i brought my setting spray from Urban Decay because it is so humid in Florida and i want my make-up to stay in place. This book is "An abundance of Katherines" by John Green and you can pick that up at Wal-Mart.


Thanks for reading! What are some of your vacation essentials? 

Casual Go-To Look

 Happy Saturday everyone! Today i figured i would share with you guys my casual "go-to look". I have to admit, i could easily be inducted into the outfit repeaters hall of fame for this one. Oh well. It's really comfortable and great for class and running errands, or just hanging out when i have some free time. I picked up these white pants at Old Navy and they have become a new favorite of mine. I got this top also at Old Navy on sale for only $8.00 at the time and i couldn't pass that up. I'm wearing my favorite "Jack Roger look alike sandals" and my purse is from Michael Kors. They actually stopped selling this purse last year but i linked a really similar one.

A Spiritual Perspective

 C.S. Lewis is hands down my favorite author. He's a beautiful writer and his words always hit home with me. I can easily say that his book "mere christianity" had a huge impact on my life and helped me have a new perspective on my life and my faith.

I hope that some of my favorite C.S. Lewis quotes can touch your heart and help you feel Christ in some way tonight. If you haven't read "mere christianity" yet, i highly recommend it! It will change your life and it's a great book to always come back to when your faith is weak.
