Seventy Fifth Post with Shop 1802...

Wow this is my 75th post on my blog. WOOOO. So many things have changed since I started this little baby of mine. I have worked multiple different jobs, gone back to school, decided I wanted to quit school and go to hair school, decided I should probably stay in school so I re-enrolled, started photography, changed majors, and met so many wonderful people on the way. 

Life is such a crazy journey, being a girl from Utah who loves the fact that I have the both mountains and a large metropolitan area right by me and moving to Idaho (where I can't even buy my desired mascara in a store by the way) you could say it is something I never thought I would have done. Ever. Ever. Ever. Did I say ever? You get it. Okay, well news flash Sam, sometimes you end up liking where you live. Weird. That's right never thought I would admit it but I kind of like this little state we call Idahome. (although I will hopefully be moving AS SOON AS I GRADUATE.... in 3 years.... *insert eye rolls and boos here*) Point being, it's all in the attitude, and Idaho ain't so bad.

Little Red Dress

Pink Blush has delivered again! This store never ceases to amaze me. Can I just have the whole thing for my wardrobe already? I saw this red dress and I HAD to have it. I liked it because it's a good holiday party dress, but also super cute for all of the winter months as well! The lace detail tops it all off and pulls everything together. This wool coat is a LIFESAVER, walking to class in Rexburg can be pretty freaking cold during the winter but this baby keeps me warm and I still look good going to school (on the days where it isn't too cold that I have no choice but to wear my ski coat) it is a  Michael Kors coat and I got it for a steal last year at Macy's around this time, maybe a little more into January so keep your eyes out for those deals because now that Christmas is over they are gonna start coming :)

PS. I got Lightroom for Christmas, so bare with me and my photos while I learn my way around it.

Spontaneity and It's Glory + New Blog Design

Last weekend I checked my Instagram around 1am and saw an invitation to an event in Sugar House Utah for Uptown Cheepskate's grand opening there. I was so excited for the invite, the only draw back... I live in Rexburg Idaho for school right now. I was up chatting with my roommates when I got the invite and well, we decided to pack up and make a quick, and I mean QUICK trip to Utah. We were there for less than 24 hours. Crazy. 

It was so worth it though, I got a couple awesome steals that I am so excited to share with everyone in some upcoming posts. This store is great and I will definitely be returning. Something else so great about it? You can sell the clothes you don't wear anymore and in doing so help someone else find a hidden treasure they may have never had without you. This store is definitely one you need to check out. 

Later that night I was able to go to a beauty event at Nordstrom City Creek. Little do you know that there are products at the City Creek location that in the state of Utah it is the only place you can buy them. It was so fun learning about the new products coming out for fall. All I can say is deep berry lips are HOT HOT HOT this fall. After the event I was able to go to dinner with some of my new found blogger friends, it was so fun and am so blessed to be apart of this blogging community.

On top of all this, check out the new design on the blog. How do you like it? Because I LOVE it. Sydney who writes The Seven Story Blog custom designed it for me. I cannot thank her enough. I seriously love it. She was so nice and easy to work with. So thanks again Sydney!!

Absolutely LOVE this girl! Check out her blog ----> HERE
