Recently, I did a massive round of spring cleaning and I realized just how many t shirts I had from various activities and events I've been involved in so far in my lifetime. I found shirts from grade school, summer reading programs, dance studios, high school, homecomings and spirit weeks, dance team, sorority events, dance recitals, and college tees. The sheer amount of t-shirts I owned, and rarely wore, was honestly astonishing and I had no clue what I would do with them, until I heard about …

Graduation Day
It's graduation day! This journey has been a crazy four years, full of plenty of ups and downs, but I wouldn't change it for the world. I can honestly say that I will miss my school, teachers, & especially all the wonderful friends I've made. It's strange to think just how much will be changing in these next few months, but I'm so excited for all that life has in store. I know that I'm more than ready for this new chapter in my life to begin & that today is not only an ending, but …
Leap of Faith
I honestly can't believe that I'm entering into the last days of my high school career. My classmates and I have less than ten full days of school left! As cliche as I'm sure it sounds, this year has flown by in an blur. This blur has been full of good times, bad times, stressful times, rewarding times, smiles, laughter, and precious time spent with friends and family. Needless to say, my senior year has been filled with memories and friendships that I will treasure for the rest of my …

The Hunt Has Begun… Again
As I mentioned in my last Friday Five post, I got asked to prom a few weeks ago! Since then, I've been searching for the perfect dress. I thought that I had found it on Nordstrom's site, but when I went back a few days later to order my dream dress... it was gone!Such a bummer, right? So the hunt has begun once again! I honestly don't really know what I'm looking for specifically, but I think it will be one of those things where I'll just know when it's the right one for me. I'm going to a few …

My graduation dress arrived last week from Lilly and I absolutely love it! I'm so excited to wear it in May, but at the same time it makes me realize just how fast this last bit of high school is flying by. 3. I …

A Little Dress Inspiration
I know that many schools that have a turnabout or spring dance some time around now. Although my school does not have one of these for upperclassmen, lots of my friends from other schools have some sort of dance coming up relatively soon. Personally, I have just started to investigate dresses for prom and I've got a few ideas already, but that's for a future post and I'm way ahead of schedule as usual. Anyway, for today I thought I would share a few of my late winter/early spring semi-formal …
