Happy Thursday, and happy December 1st! I’ve wrapping up the end of the semester, and since I only have one final that’s not till next week, I’ll be headed home tomorrow to get started on my Christmas break a little early!

Let’s start the week off right with some seriously swoon-worthy gorgeousness, shall we? If this doesn’t make you gasp, I don’t know what will!

Happy Thursday! I’m on my way to my beautiful home state of Virginia today for my best friend’s wedding! The next few days will be a whirlwind of excitement and joy, and I could not be more excited to spend her special day with her. Thanks to all the excitement and anticipation of my trip, […]

It’s been a little while since I posted an inspiration board, and to be honest, it took me awhile to find inspiration for this one.
