Flashback Friday: A Look Back at April

Look back at April

April went by so fast! I cannot believe it is May and I have two weeks of school left…it doesn’t seem real. I wanted to take today to reflect on the past month.

Favorite Moments in April
  1. Meeting Erin Condren and having her actually comment on my blog post! See it all here.
  2. Receiving an amazing care package from Charlotte Russe. See posts featuring the items from the care package here and here.
  3. Being featured on Charlotte Russe’s Instagram here.
  4. Stepping up my sponsorship opportunities and filling all of my sponsor spots.
  5. Collaboration with Allyssa from Life with Lyss. See it here.
  6. Reaching 900 followers on Twitter.
  7. Being published on the TEDxChapmanU blog here.
  8. My little sister committed to attending the University of Puget Sound in the Fall!
  9. My older sister decided on a wedding venue and date

It’s been a great month! I have so much going on in May – moving from California back to Washington, final exams, saying goodbye to all of my Chapman friends, and formal. I am excited, nervous, sad, stressed, and so happy all at the same time. It’s going to be a roller coaster for sure.

I went to the mall today to get all of my spring shopping done. It’s “warm” today – about 50 degrees – so I didn’t need a huge jacket or anything. This outfit is easy to throw together but it looks really polished. I just love it! I actually bought the hat today and threw it on as soon as I left the store. It complements my outfit nicely!

Happy Pi Day!

It’s also casual Friday at my office which means there’s donuts! I’m re-thinking wearing a skirt and tight shirt today because I know I’m going to stuff my face. I wish I had worn my stretchy pants (read that in a Nacho Libre voice). UPDATE (as of 11:38 am): I stuffed my face with a donut bigger than it.

Anyways, I love this outfit. I used to be so against combat boots with skirts, but I’m warming up to the idea. I never dress “edgy” like this, so it was fun for me! I’m usually all about bright colors and looking more preppy.

I’m also wearing hair extensions. These are my Jessica Simpson “HairDo” 23″ wavy extensions by Ken Paves. I’m going to do a review later comparing them to my Bellamis that arrived today, but I never actually wear these extensions. I just felt like wearing them for the picture. I honestly don’t feel comfortable wearing my HairDo extensions in public because I feel like they will fall off and the texture really doesn’t match my hair. So anyways, I took them off after I took the pictures!

Necklace from The Flourish Boutique

Today’s outfit is all about having a little fun while still looking professional. I adore this lavender blouse from White Plum. It’s elegant and light – a nice lady-like touch. The statement necklace from The Flourish Boutique adds a fun pop without being too distracting. I firmly believe every woman needs a black skater skirt in her closet and this one from Nordstrom is the perfect essential. You can throw it on with almost everything!
