Valentines Day Guide 2017

Hi everyone,

As January is slowing crawling to a close (Am I the only one who thought this month was way to long?) Valentines day is quickly approaching! In honor of the holiday, put together a few adorable holiday inspired pieces that are too cute to resist, even if your #antivalentinesday! I'm a total sugarholic, hard to believe I promised I will go a week without it! I gotta get my hands on these cute candies from sugarfina.  I can't wait to host a little "Galentines Brunch" with my friends, I have found tons inspiration scrolling through Pinterest recently, I wish It could already be February!

Xoxo,

Jillian

Flowers are A Girls Best Friend

Hey Everyone,

This weekend I finally got the chance to break out one of my favorite Christmas gifts and let me tell you I am beyond obsessed with my Hunters!  After receiving some “hate” from my dad (Questioning why I would want such thick boots down in South Florida), I realized that they are such a functional and practical investment piece for anyone's wardrobe. It's quite ironic that Florida is known as the Sunshine State, because let me tell you, it rains a lot, a lot, a lot!  Wearing flip flops or sneakers in the rain isn't that ideal because your feet get wet or your socks become soggy!  The Hunter boots are perfect for this weather.  Some of my recent purchases have been this beautiful bold red color and I think it's quickly becoming an obsession of mine! From my backpack, nails, glasses, dresses, you name it, all bold red.

Xoxo,

Jillian

101 Things in 1001 Days

I have been recently inspired by Frannie Acciardo’s blog to create my own “101 things in 1001 days” list! Since it is just the beginning of 2017, I figured that creating this list would be in lieu of the typical “New Year's Resolutions” everyone, and myself, seem to make and never meet up to what we promise ourselves! Since this will take a little over two years to complete, these goals and aspirations I have set for myself will make the beginning of my “early adulthood” years a quite thrilling adventure. I’m hopeful that I can achieve as much as I possibly could!
