Fashion Friday + a little more

Fashion Friday


To say that I'm excited that it's Friday is an understatement this week! It has been a very full week and I am ready for some relaxing. This week Fashion Friday is Beachy Chic, which is right up my alley!! I thought I would add a few more things to my outfit and include a great beach living space, some fabulous food & a tropical drink!

a little more
As I'm sure you noticed my blog got a facelift! After checking out one of my favorite blogs, Melissa @ Just a Southern Girl Living the City Dream's blog makeover by Aubrey @ The Kinch Life Designs  I just knew that I needed her help!! We communicated back & forth and in no time at all she had it installed and up for you to see! She is the sweetest & I hope that you will check out her design services!

versatile blogger award
This week I was so excited to hear that Jennifer @ Party of One nominated me for a versatile blogger award :) So sweet! I need to get my act together and nominate my bloggers as well. I will get it all wrapped up & presented next week!

bauble swap
My girl Shanna @ Because Shanna Said So is hosting a bauble swap! She will pair you with another fabulous blogger and you mail each other a bauble! Head over to her blog to check it out!! You have until July 15th to sign up & she already has 50 amazing bloggers signed up! I can't wait to get my new bauble :)
