College Life Update (& Dorm pics!)

   
     Well, I am officially moved into college and have completed my first week of school! I am happy to report that I did not get lost and am pleasantly surprised by my schedule. (I'm finished with classes by 11:50 MW and 10:50 on F!) My life is now all written out in my planner and on hand at all times. I moved into my dorm last Tuesday and then ran back home that Saturday to grab some things I had planned to pick up. It was a quick stop home but it made me feel very "adult-like." haha! I now have to worry about where my next meal is coming from and balancing time-management. It's weird, but I'm loving it.

      The Lucys in room 311 are doing very well! Here is a look at our dorm:

Thank you to both our families for helping us on move in day! We could not be happier with it!!

And of course, a first day of school picture:

I have met so many great people already, especially the girls on my floor. I am going on a retreat this weekend in Memphis with a Christian campus organization called CRU where I will probably meet some more great people! I can't wait! 

I know this post is getting long but I just wanted to put out there that I am planning on keeping up my blog up as best as I can. Life is crazy busy freshmen year (really, all the time) but blogging is something I love and though posts might be scarce, I hope you'll continue following along with me!

Plaid Mini Skort

I'm stepping out today in a little dressier of an outfit that would be great for a night out or party. As I mentioned in my last post, I have really been loving skirts, and in this case, skorts! There are endless  ways to wear this skort because of the many different, neutral colors. I love it paired with this white flowy sleeved top because 1. It is so fun to wear and 2. though it is summertime, sometimes I like a little more coverage when I'm in the AC. These booties are a fall/winter staple for sure and I believe I got them for around $20! I couldn't find the exact link to them but I found another pair that are very similar.

P.S. I move into my dorm a week from today! Ahh!

Printed Silk & Denim

Recently, I have been loving skirts. I think I forgot how versatile and cute they can be! The denim cut off mini skirt has been pretty trendy lately and y'all, I literally went to Goodwill and found this denim skirt that originally went to my knees and cut it off with a pair of strong scissors. So easy. This beautiful tunic I thrifted a while ago is still one of my favorites and I love finding new ways to wear it. Normally, I just throw it on with white jeans but it is wayy too hot for that these days. Unfortunately, the tunic isn't quite long enough to wear as a dress because it has slits on the sides so I play it safe with a little half tuck in the front of whatever bottoms I'm wearing. My favorite last touch is this necklace from Anthro, it goes with absolutely everything!

Summer Camp Recap

     Hi Friends! I got back from camp last Thursday and it was nothing short of amazing. I still can't believe that 1. I just finished my last year as a camper and 2. I move into college in less than 2 weeks!! There have been a lot exciting changes in my life and it is all going and coming so fast. People keep asking me if I am ready for college so soon and the answer is yes. I am ready for dorm life with my awesome roommate, I'm ready for new friendships, and I'm ready for a new daily routine. There is no doubt it will be difficult at times but God's timing is perfect and I am trusting that whatever falls on my plate I am ready to take on. James 1 has really been an encouragement to me these days, please go read it if you get the chance!

Here are a few pictures from my time at camp!
