I'm so excited...

Today's thoughts are currently busting out all over!! There is so much coming to Pampers & Pearls this Fall I can hardly contain my excitement...I feel like I'm going to pass out!  I personally LOVE being surprised, but when planning a surprise myself I can't really keep it in. I hint...which is kind of bitchy...but I want you guys to know/be a part of it all. 

First I am beyond fired up to tell you about "The Georgia/Florida Line" series I'll be doing with Peaches in a Pod.  Starting Friday September 4th and going every other weekend til the end of the season we will be having a "Florida/Georgia" post featuring one designer/brand, styled two different ways. I will obviously be wearing/styling everything in Orange & Blue for the Gators (but sometimes applicable to UVA, Auburn, Illinois, etc...) and the girls from Peaches in a Pod will be styling everything in Red & Black for UGA (but applicable to a TON of other teams).  I'm very happy to announce that our first collaboration on August 28th will feature Vera Bradley, but you will just have to wait to hear the rest. 

Next is my upcoming 2nd blogiversary! Last year my 1 year blogiversary kind of jumped up on me, and I completely forgot to prepare anything other than a last minute cocktail party.  This year I'm making up for it all with a giveaway of massive proportions.  I am teaming up with some of my favorite bloggers to bring you a "My Favorite Things" giveaway.  You will have the chance to win a gift card to my favorite store along with my favorite earrings, bracelet, necklace, candle, nail polish, make-up pouch, planner, etc...  Be looking for updates and the giveaway to go live towards the end of September.  

And lastly, since it's Thursday, I thought we would finish with a little savvy shopping. J.Crew is currently having their "Shop More Event".  Spend $200+ and receive 30% off or over $100 and receive 25% off. Use Code SHOPMORE.  I'm currently loving there transitional pieces for Fall.  Their clothing for women is so feminine and neutral and simple right now, which anyone can pull off, and I really like how they have an entire section for boys about how to "wear it now, wear it later."  They show you how to take one piece and transition it from summer to school...GENIUS!! Below you can find my favorite lady pieces on the left and some great transition pieces for the little boys (sorry I have tunnel vision when it comes to kids) on the right.
