My Trip To Jekyll Island

-
SUMMER BREAK HAS FINALLY ARRIVED!!

My dad had a work trip to Jekyll Island a few days ago, so he invited me to come along after classes ended and it was amazing. I had a horrible week of finals and it has been a terrible semester, so I was super excited to get out of Auburn. And I had never gone to Jekyll Island or knew many people who had gone there before so I was excited to visit a place that wasn't super mainstream.

Jekyll Island is a small island south of Savannah, Georgia. It's not as wellknown as Savannah and is kind of intimate. It's not like Destin or PCB. There weren't any crazy clubs or bars as far as I could tell and it's not really aimed at your typical crazy college crowd which I liked. The people I saw there were either over 40 or were families with young children. Soo yeah, not many people for me to be friends with, haha.

There was a section of the island which I would like to call their "downtown" (but it wasn't really downtown if you know what I mean) that was brand new and everything was clean, nice, and posh. And there is a bike path that goes around the whole island and you can rent bikes to bike around. I rented one for a little while and it was so fun!

My dad's conference was at The Westin so we spent the night there and it was right by the beach. The hotel was great and the beach was beautiful. Here are a few pictures I took!

While writing this blog post, I realized that I did a terrible job of taking pictures of things other than the beach. I'm sorry!! BUT... I snapchatted the whole experience and I compiled all the clips into one youtube video, so you can see a little more of the island that way. The video is right here below!

Olly Undeniable Beauty HSN Vitamin Review (with before and after photos!)

-

I have always had pretty clear skin. If I ever had breakouts, which was more frequent in college, I was able to eventually pinpoint what exactly caused it, and it would usually be linked to stress or a certain food. And it was usually like 2-3 breakouts, so nothing like super crazy. The breakout would happen, I would freak out for a second (probably post a snapchat about it 🙊), and then my skin would go back to normal. But in the past 5ish months, my skin has changed. The breakouts have been more regular and my skin isn't as smooth as it used to be. I have been trying to figure out why because there hasn't been any significant change in the products I use or the food I eat. Like I was going to post an updated skin care routine and then my skin went crazy and I scrapped the idea (for now) . But I was open to using some kind of supplement that would help improve my skin and hair.  Well, mostly my skin, but I wasn't opposed to hair growth. The vitamins I originally want

New York City Guide: Taylor Swift Edition (With the walking path attached!)

-
Image
So my fiancé and I went to NYC during the weekend of the 1989 (Taylor's Version) release, so I thought it was only appropriate to plan a Taylor Swift-themed tour especially since 1989 has been referred to as the New York City album. Am I crazy? Yes. But was it fun? YES!!! I thought I could share our tour with you guys, if any Swifties ever want to do the same. And if you're going with a significant other who doesn't like Taylor Swift related activities, just lie and say you're going to some cool new spots to check out. I may or may not have done that. He may or may not have found out during the tour but it was too late to back out. Hehe 🙈 This is a walking guide and I made sure all the places were easy to navigate. I have two brain cells when it comes to directions, so if I can do it, you guys can do it too! 55 Franklin Street, New York, NY 10013 Significance: TS lived in the top floor condo. We started our tour in Tribeca. Super empty street, which makes sense why she

Easy 70s Halloween Costume

-

We made a girls trip to New Orleans and wanted to dress up for Halloween while we were there! But we didn't want to do anything super crazy or expensive, so we decided to go as hippies/70s girls. Or how most people will call it.... #BASIC. Where we got our stuff: Tie-dye shirts - Me and my friend Brandee went to Hobby Lobby and bought t-shirts and Tulip brand Tie Dye. Literally everything we bought was on sale and cheap, so highly suggest going to Hobby Lobby if you decide to make t-shirts! They also have 40% coupons on their website which works on pretty much anything that doesn't already have a discount. Glasses, Necklaces, Headbands - Ordered a set of four glasses, necklaces, and headbands from Amazon for $14.99 How we made the t-shirts: I might make a separate blog post on this because there are different ways to get the perfect tie-dye look and I'm still curious to find out how to get perfection because ours weren't perfect (close to perfect,
