Christmas presents haul!

Hey everyone! So this is gonna be a little haul on what I've bought myself for Christmas and for working so hard this past year through school, work, and my sorority! 

First thing I bought was actually on Christmas around 10pm at night. My paycheck went in early, as it normally does, and I decided to get myself a monogram necklace! I was thinking of getting an acrylic one from Knot Just Bracelets on Etsy. As I was thinking about it, I decided a silver one would look better and would go with more than an acrylic one. So, I found one from another store on Etsy that wasn't too expensive!

That picture is an example one of the silver 2 inch monogram necklace I'll be getting soon! Once I get it, I'll make a post about it!

The second thing I got was my Julep box for January! If any of you don't know what Julep is, it's a nail polish/other beauty products brand and they have monthly subscription boxes that you can either get sent to you, a friend, or you can skip if you don't have the money that month! I haven't gotten a Julep box in FOREVER, but when I saw that there was a box that had the plié wand in it, I was SOLD! I also had enough points to get the plié wand creativity kit which includes extra tools for the plié wand! I will also make a new post about that once that comes in! 

Next, today I went to the outlet mall near my house! The first thing I got was a shirt from Zumiez, which, if you don't know what that is, it's like a skate brand store. I bought this shirt from Empyre there for $20! 

I thought it was super cute with the elephant on it and I am currently obsessed with the color on top, the wine/burgundy color!

Lastly, I went to the Kate Spade store to find a purse I had been wanting for a while! The store was 60% off! While they didn't have the one I wanted, they did have the same style but in black (I had wanted the one in hot pink!) So, I got it! It was originally $85 and with the 60% off, it was $34!! I am in LOVE with it and I am so happy that I got it! 

my snapchat to my friends after I got my purse! 

My Jeralyn bag!

IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL.

My Jeralyn bag is black with black polka dots and the spades interspersed into the bag, with a hot pink inside liner that says 'Kate Spade New York' all over it! It's soooooo cute!

So, those are the gifts I bought myself for Christmas! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas week and I hope you all have a Happy New Year if I don't post before then!

OOTW: Day 7!

Hey everyone! Today was my first day off of work since last Monday (not counting Christmas)! So, mom and I headed out to do a little bit of shopping! I'll show you my recent purchases in my next post, but for now, here's my outfit from today!

Sweater & leggings: Walmart/ Necklace & watch: Charming Charlie/
Tank: Comfort Colors (one of my sorority shirts)/ Boots: Payless

I was feeling particularly "basic" today, haha! But, it was comfortable and cute so I don't even care! Hope you enjoyed my outfit today on the last day of my OOTW series! I'll probably do another one of these when school starts up in January! 

Stay tuned for my next post about my Christmas presents I've bought myself! :)

OOTW: Day 6... I forgot.

So, today (the 26th) was super busy for me! I woke up, got ready, went to Walmart and Dollar Tree to get some things for my coworkers for Christmas gifts, went home, made their little bags really quickly, stopped and got some food, and then went to work.

I then came home and, as always, immediately changed out of my work clothes. So, as I was sitting and watching Frozen a bit ago, I remembered that I had not done my OOTD picture. Woops.

Here's a little idea of what I was wearing though!

• black long sweater from Target
• black leggings
• a pink rose and pearl necklace from work 
• my gold watch from work
• my new brown boots I got for Christmas from Payless
• my gold earrings from Target from a couple OOTD's ago

Here's a picture of my boots and necklace from the Payless and Charming Charlie websites!

York Riding Boots- Payless

Petals and Pearls necklace- Charming Charlie

I promise to do an OOTD today technically (the 27th) as I'll be out shopping! I might even do a little mini haul! 

Have a good rest of your week everyone!

Christmas 2014!

Hi guys! So, here is a little recap of my Christmas! 

Woke up and showered and got ready to go to Christmas breakfast at Waffle House, our tradition! Here was my view while I was waiting on my mom and sister to get ready! 

Our tree with lots of presents!

I also noticed a present I had been wanting and was SUPER excited about, you may be able to see it in the picture above the corner of the box for my dad's new grill! 

ELSA BEARRRRRRRRRRR! 

That's right, I got the Elsa bear from Build A Bear for Christmas! Because, what 19 year old doesn't want a Frozen bear for Christmas?! Here's the other stuff I got for Christmas as well! 

I got: my Elsa bear, some brown boots, a new Castle calendar, the Elsa Pop! figure, a new laptop battery, some black flats, a little Frozen journal, a Frozen bag, the Frozen dvd/ blu-ray, a $10 Build A Bear gift card, some fleece lined leggings, the Bath and Body Works Cashmere Glow lotion and body wash, Frozen jelly beans, a Frozen pen, and some Reeses! 

Can you tell I like Frozen? :) 

After presents, we started baking a TON of cookies, made dinner, ate, and now I'm sitting here typing this up and I might watch Frozen! :)

Have a good rest of your week everyone and Merry Christmas!

OOTW: Day 5, Christmas Day!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! I hope you all have had a wonderful day full of fun, family, and friends! And of course, candy! 

Today's OOTD was pretty simple and cute! So, here it is! (And ignore the pink socks, I took this later in the day when I was just chilling at my house rather than earlier when I had my actual full outfit on! But look how cute Santa Boo is!)

Dress, Necklace, & Watch: Charming Charlie/ Earrings (the gold ones from the other day): Target/ Flats (not pictured, same as Christmas Eve though): Life Style

So, that was my super simple Christmas Day outfit! Stay tuned for my Christmas 2014 post including what I got!
