Love This Life: September 2015

FALL WISHLIST - THE STAPLES

The weather is getting cooler and the humidity is starting to leave the air (thank goodness) - fall is almost here! I've been taking a little inventory on my current closet and there is a lot I want to purge and kind of, sort of, a lot of staples I want/need to add. My style has definitely evolved over the years to more simple and neutral and I want what I purchase this season to be thoughtful and reflect that. Lots of cozy layers and pieces that can easily transition from work to happy hour to out on the town.

4 MONTHS OF LIFE IN ONE POST

Even though it's been four months since I blogged, I have been keeping up with my Instagram (follow me if you aren't!), so you probably have a slight idea of what I've been up to. But since this is a LIFE and style blog, I thought I might as well give a quick photo & caption update as to what I've been doing the past 4 months!

It's been a lot of wedding attending, celebrating sorority sisters and friends from home.

There was also some weekend travel to Lexington, NYC, Champaign, and Columbia, SC.

And lots and lots of fun in Nashville canoeing (cabrewing, actually), happy hour-ing, exploring, chasing waterfalls (literally), going to concerts, and rocking out at a hot chicken and jorts festival.

This fall isn't looking to slow down one bit either, between friends and the bf visiting Nashville in the coming weekends, concerts, football games, Keeneland, and another wedding. But what would life be if not totally crazy?! And when it's this full of fun, I really can't complain one bit.

FOUR MONTHS LATER + A GIVEAWAY

Guys. I haven't blogged for four months. I don't know exactly where four months went, but I think it went to a lot of weekend traveling, weddings, and just summer busy. I definitely think it was necessary though. For those of you who have followed me for awhile, you know I take little hiatuses every now and then, but this is by far the longest. Let me just say, it's been refreshing and all in all, for the best.

I'm going to save why I'm back to blogging and some upcoming changes for another post, but here's the thing to know: I'm back. Perfect timing for a fresh start with the new season (I think fall is my favorite) AND to celebrate a fellow blogger's 2nd blogiversary with a giveaway!

I met sweet Morgan of Pampers and Pearls last summer at the Southern Blog Society conference in Atlanta. She is one of the cutest and nicest bloggers I've had the privilege to meet, and I'm so, so excited that she asked me to participate in her anniversary giveaway! It's an awesome giveaway that include Morgan's favorite things (and honestly some of mine!) valuing over $500! Enter to win using the rafflecopter and check out all of the fabulous bloggers participating in the links below. You have until 11:59pm on Friday to enter and the winner will be announced on all of our blogs Saturday!
