Hey lovelies! Back by popular demand, I have another Bowtiful Wallpaper to share with all of you today. The previous, pastel wallpaper went over very well. I chose a more black and white theme for this one (and yes, there is some color in it, but it's more toned down than what I would usually do.) I absolutely LOVE the way it turned out! This wallpaper includes some gorgeous iconic faces & places as well as plenty of other pretty pictures. If you didn't see the last wallpaper that I posted, …

Fall in July
This weekend I went to visit my cousins to celebrate my uncle's birthday! The house we had the party at had a pool, a heated pool to be specific. Now, you may ask, why on earth would you need a heated pool in July? The answer: because it has been cold!lThe Chicago area is having quite a chilly spell for summer. Just a little while ago it was ungodly hot and I posted about the infused water I had been making to stay hydrated. Now, instead of infused water or iced coffee, I've been wanting …
Twinning in Tiffany Blue
Hey darlings! How have you been? My summer has been going wonderfully and I've been just the right amount of busy. One fun thing I got to do recently was meet up with one of my fabulous blog friends, Chloe from The Preppy Diaries & PopCosmo!

Currently Loving: Infused Water
Recently it has been unbearably hot in the Chicago area, so I've been making an extra effort to stay hydrated at all times. My mom has been especially supportive of our whole family constantly drinking water because, obviously, no one wants to get dehydrated when it's close to 100 degrees outside!We've been using this pitcher from Bodum to make infused water to stay cool and encourage everyone to drink more water. Typically, it helps to let the pitcher sit for about two hours in the fridge …
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
It's that wonderful time of year again, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is here! I've been attending the Anniversary Sale with my mom for as long as I can remember and it's one of my favorite back-to-school traditions! When I was little, it would be the time to go get new mary janes and light-up gym shoes for the year. As I've gotten older, it has become the way that I prep myself and my wardrobe for going back to school. These are just a few of my favorites from the sale this year. The main …
How I Organize My Lilly Agenda

I got the large option in You Gotta Regatta (above) and I'm just finishing …
One Direction Take Me Home Tour
This past Sunday, July 14th, I was able to go see One Direction on their Take Me Home Tour!!! For those of you who were not already aware, I absolutely love 1D. I've had "What Makes You Beautiful" or "Back For You" set as my ringtone for the past two years. (I like to alternate between them.) Needless to say, I'm a pretty big fan of One Direction, so I was super pumped to be attending one of their concerts at last!I purchased my tickets over a year ago and I'd been looking forward to the concert …
