2014 Favorites

I have rounded up 10 of my favorite posts from 2014, looking back on what an amazing year it was. It is so much fun to see how my blog has evolved, along with my style, and how I have gotten to know my readers over the past year. I can not explain how excited I am to start 2015 with y'all, we have many fun times ahead of us! Matt will be starting his new job in January, so bear with me as I find out who will be my new photographer. I will hopefully be landing an internship for the summer, along with starting my senior year of college in the fall. So read along with me as I go though 10 of my favorite posts from 2014, and get excited for many posts to come in the new year!

HOLIDAY PARTY 

What is one of your favorite memories from 2014? My favorite memory from 2014 would have to be the week I spent at Sea Brook Island with my family and Matt. It was the perfect way to start off the summer, so many great memories were made. I can't wait to see what 2015 holds for us!

**Starting next week I will be doing a "Blogger Tips Thursday" series for a few weeks. I already have a few post ideas lined up but if you have any questions, or suggestions for what a great blogger tip would be please let me know!** 

Stocking Stuffers

What are you hopping for in your stocking this year? Here are a few of my top picks for what I hope to see in my stocking. I try to always put cute little girly gifts in stockings, and also things that I feel they can use with in the next week to keep the Christmas spirit going. Things like makeup, and other beauty products are always great because it is usually something they wanted but wouldn't normally teat themselves too. Socks, and gloves are also good stocking stuffers because lets face it, it's getting cold out. And one of my favorite, festive pajamas, but sometimes I gift those the night before so they can wear them Christmas morning. What are some of your stocking stuffer ideas or suggestions?

Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide

I love to shop, especially for Christmas gifts, even though I tend to go a little over board. I have made a gift guide for any girl in your life(mom, girlfriend, you etc.) and all of the items are under $50. I am a strong believer that gifts should be pretty, at least a gift to a girl, not only the wrapping but the actual gift itself. Who doesn't love opening a pretty girly gift? I love giving gifts, but I love receiving them even more :) The best thing about a gift is every time you use the item it makes you think of the person that gave it to you.
I have three tips for you while you are shopping this season.
1. Think about what the person really likes and not focus on if you like it.
2. Don't buy it just because its on sale.
3. Expensive isn't always better.
One of the biggest parts of a gift is the thought you put behind it. What is on your wish list?

J.Crew Extra 40% Off Sale

I thank we all know how much I LOVE J.Crew, so when they have an extra 40% off sale items I am really in love. I picked out a few of my favorite to show y'all. The purple sweater I wore in my last post (rain or shine) is on sale so pick up one for yourself. Also my pea coat is on sale in 3 different colors. The coveted J.Crew vest is on sale (navy pinstripe only) and so so many other great finds. If you buy in store you get an extra 15% off with your student discount on top of the extra 40%, so what a great deal is that! Share with me a few of your favorite J.Crew sale items.
