September has been quite an eventful month! It started with my wedding and honeymoon and has now quickly transitioned back to reality with the fall in CT. This summer has flown by faster than previous years, and I know it has to do with all the wedding prep and excitement around the day!
An easy and tasty green juice recipe that you will want to make on repeat. I do not juice as a replacement for a meal, but as an additional way for me to incorporate the great benefits that come along with the intake of fruits and vegetables. Additionally, it is so refreshing to drink during the summer. I recently made a batch and my MIL and Fiance can both attest that it is delicious!
When I got engaged last September, I could not wait to get started on the prepping and planning of the wedding. Since we got engaged during vacation, I waited until I arrived home and immediately began writing my to-do list. I knew that with my busy schedule, I needed to choose companies and vendors I could rely on to make easy decisions. I was so happy to have found Basic Invite to help start the process for my wedding invites.
With my bachelorette party coming soon, I am finally sharing everything I put in my Bridesmaid’s proposal boxes. I used Pinterest for inspiration as I wanted simple ideas with some personal touches. I was so excited to put these boxes together and finally ask my friends and family if they would join me on my special day.
February has flown by! I am proud of the content I have been sharing with you all lately on Instagram. I have been having fun creating outfit reels and sharing more of my work outfits and weekend looks in motion. I have also been having fun creating new outfits with my clothes. Due to planning a wedding this year, I have been considerate of my expenses and minimized my consumption of goods.
Winter can be a difficult season for most. The cold and evenings that are dark early make it difficult to feel motivated and excited. There are some key things I try to do to keep myself busy and entertained throughout the winter so it does not feel as dreary as it looks. Read more to see what I have been doing this winter.
It has been a while since I shared a few images and links of products that I have posted on my Instagram over here on the blog. If you are not following me on Instagram you will see many more daily looks, reels, and other things that I love in the moment on stories. I want to do these monthly recaps so you can easily find product links to previous posts as well.
The books I read in a year are some of my favorite posts to share! I genuinely enjoy reading as a way to slow down and relax. It is my favorite way to connect with others who I know read as well. This past year was a busy one so my goal for 2023 to give myself at least 30 minutes per day to read was not as successful as I hoped. But, I am still going into 2024 with the same goal!
