Lilly Pulitzer Thermal Mugs 2012: College Must Have

As you all know I have already began my Fall Back to School shopping. I have been buying accessories like crazy! One site I check every day is Lifeguardpress.com They have a HUGE selection of Lilly Pulitzer accessories. I purchased my new 2012 Lilly Pulitzer planner for Fall 2012 in the print "See you Later Alligator" from Lifeguardpress.com & I've been waiting for them to add their new prints to the website & got SOOO happy when I noticed they added the new thermal mugs in the new prints for fall 2012 too. I had to do a post & show you all incase you haven't heard. 

These are the prints.. Of coarse I'm lusting over the "See You Later Alligator" print. I'm obsessed with Pink and Green! 

These babies are $15.00 and a necessity for College girls. I love throwing my coffee in them for those early morning classes or even ice cold water in them in those hot afternoons. I just love having cute accessories to sport on campus. Which print is your favorite?

Back To College: My Fall Shopping List

I know it's still summer... But Fall will be here before you know it. I begin my fall Back to school shopping during Mid July. I wanted to do a post of items that i'm picking up for fall. These are items that I will use at college and get a lot of use out of them. I'm not going to talk about each item.. Your smart girls and can look at a hat and know what it's for! Ha! The Ralph Lauren Chino hats are my favorite to wear to class on days when you don't feel like doing your hair an yet still super cute! It's a Win WIN!!! But if you want to know where something is from just ask! :) 

Have any of you started your back to school shopping yet? What's a must have on your list? Always love hearing from you too!

Have a great day!

My Book Picks: Over 4th of July

Since summer school ended I finally have time to breath I thought I would pick up a few books & read them. I can't even tell you the last time I read for pleasure!! Tomorrows the 4th of July  I'll be out on the lake with the family. I can't wait to just catch done rays while reading a book!


My book choices are

1. Mating Rituals of the North American Wasp by: Lauren Lipton


2. Heaven is for Real by: Todd Burpo.

I've heard excellent things about both of these books & can't wait to begin them both!


& how fun is my Bookmark? It was given to me for Christmas from my friend Jason. He said he saw it & immediately thought of me. I love it and finally have an excuse to use it! :)


Have any of you read these? What books are you currently reading? Or when was the last time you read for pure enjoyment? It's been about over a year for me! Long time! College just takes over your life. I'm glad it's finally summer vacation. Hope you guys have a safe and happy Fourth of July.

Nail Designs I'm LUSTING Over


I saw these on Pinterest and immediately fell head over heels on these two nail looks. The first one is just so summery and yet classy. I showed it to my mom and she didn't like it, but I absolutely love it. It's on my to-do- nail list for sure. The second one is nude which is a huge trend right now, but mixed with one sparkle nail. I think it's gorgeous and will surly match whatever your wearing. It's also classy but fun at the same time. This nail look is also on my nail-to do list. I just wanted to share these two beautiful pictures that I pinned on my Pinterest. I'm listed as Candace Nicole if your curious :) I think I have the cutest boards ever.. but i'm sure every girl on Pinterest feels the same way about theirs too!
Hope everyones having a great day & enjoying the sunshine!

Perfect: Rainy Day Attire for College Girls

Now I know it's not Fall ladies.. But I begin my fall shopping in the summer. I have vacations and many other events planned, and don't like to feel rushed before August doing my back to school shopping. Where I go to college (Keeping private due to privacy) it rains a lot during the winter and it can be extremely cold. I thought I would do a quick post of what I would wear on a typical rainy day to classes.


1. Pearls- Always rocking my pearls. They are a classic and will never go out of style.


2. Warm Fleece- A must in my book. I have about 1000 fleeces. They are so easy to just throw on and super comfortable.


3.Black Skinny Jeans. Love skinny jeans because they are so easy to tuck your boots into. I also think they are very flattering too.


4. Bright Bold Scarf- A must have in my book. I love accessorizing with scarves. My collection of them has grown so much in the past few years.


5. Black Handbag- I have so many bags, but sometimes I just want to carry a basic black bag. It just makes your outfit look so much  more put together.


6. Colorful Rain Boots- I have several pairs of rain boots and love them. On most college campuses you will see them everywhere on girls. They come in so many different patterns and designs. A must have for college girls. I have a slight rain boot addiction.


What is your favorite thing to wear on a rainy day? Do any of you own a pair of rain boots? I actually just looked outside and it appears it just may rain today. I may have to go put on some rainy day attire now. Hope you are having a fabulous day.

Girly:Pink Patio Furniture


Summer time is officially HERE and let me tell you... It's HOT! Today it was 110 degrees. I have been going without makeup and honestly just keeping cool by floating in the pool. My summer classes are over! YAY! So i'm officially enjoying my summer till August 28th when the fall semester starts. 

I wanted to do a quick post about my new patio furniture that I am just in LOVE with. After a long day sometimes I just want to relax on my balcony with a glass of my favorite wine. Having such cute patio furniture makes it that more enjoyable. I thought I would snap a few shots of my college balcony. Pink just makes everything better in my opinion. It's a fun girly space that I have been enjoying every night. Notice the matching pink lights? Love them so much! 

Well now that it's summer and I have more free time.. I'm planning on posting everyday! So get ready :)

Hope everyone is staying cool where ever you are.
