Memorial Day Weekend 2015

Excuse my long absence, but I have been crazy busy lately with trips and school (mainly exams)! I spent my Memorial Day in Orange Beach, Alabama with my family, and the relaxing trip was muchly needed! I have never seen the water so clear in Alabama! I know that this post isn't much, but I just wanted to update y'all and let you know that I am still going to be posting, but I was just very busy! I can't wait to see what this summer has in store for me and my blog! Enjoy!!

Bike Rides and Milkshakes

I love chocolate and peanut butter milkshakes. End of story. I, also, can't drive because I'm only 15, so when I told my sister that I wanted a milkshake, she told me that I could ride my bike to get one or I wasn't getting one. Of course I was going to ride my bike!! This then turned into a really cute opportunity for pictures! So, here we are. Also, remember when I told you about those really cute J.Crew espadrilles that I got for Easter? Well I'm wearing them and aren't they darling?

Lilly Pulitzer for Target

Lilly Pulitzer for Target launches on April 19th, and yes, I will be the first one through the doors on Sunday morning! I am too excited for this dynamic duo because as most of you know, my three favorite things are Target, Lilly Pulitzer, and Starbucks, and my Target has a Starbucks inside, so now all three of my favorite things will be under one roof! I do understand why some people were upset about the collaboration making Lilly Pulitzer look "cheaper" and making the brand "less exclusive", but I do think that this collaboration will reach a wider audience, and everyone deserves to feel good wearing a Lilly dress even if they don't want to pay the full amount for a normal Lilly dress.

Since I am so ecstatic about this collaboration, I thought that I would choose some of my favorite things from the collection and share them with you guys! I have a feeling that some of you won't look through all of my picks since I do have a lot of favorites, but what can I say? I absolutely adore this collection, and I'm pretty sure that I am going to own everything in Nosie Posey by the end of it!!

Check out the look book and preview of the collection here: Lilly Pulitzer for Target

 

Okay, so the second and third pictures are both shift dresses, and you'll never believe the price! They're only $38!! I really hope that these dresses are as cute in person as they are on screen!

I have been wanting a weekender bag for a while now, and I am so glad that I held off buying one because I absolutely adore this navy weekender bag! I can't wait to get it and a matching cosmetic bag... or two! It's only $50!

Spring Favorites

Happy Spring Break! I'm currently on Spring Break, so what do I do? Plan future blog posts of course... Along with watching Criminal Minds and eating Cadbury Mini Eggs, but that's another story. My schedule tomorrow is very busy, but I will hopefully have another post up for you tomorrow evening. If not though, be on the look out for another post soon!

So, I decided that I would put together a handful of my favorite clothing items that I've been wearing a lot this Spring! I will link the products below, so I hope that y'all enjoy!

Isn't this swim suit adorable? I got it from Target. but it reminds me of a Mara Hoffman top! I love it, and I can't wait to wear it at the beach this week!

I got these shorts from J.Crew, and I absolutely adore the scalloped pockets! It adds such a cute and unique touch to the shorts. I also love the bright polka dots! These shorts remind me so much of Summer!!

I recently purchased these shorts from J.Crew Factory, and I love them! I have never seen shorts with this type of pattern, so I knew that I just had to get them! They are a fun pair of shorts that I love to pair with a basic top so that my outfit isn't too busy and all eyes are on my shorts.

These are by far my favorite pair of shorts that I own! I also purchased these from J.Crew Factory because I mean where else do you go to buy cute shorts? They are so bright and fun, and I'm a sucker for a good floral print.

Last but not least, here is my favorite white tank. It is super soft, and I love the eyelet cutouts. It gives a pop of something to a basic tank.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter! I hope that the Easter Bunny was good to you! He sure was to me! I am currently drowning in candy, and I got the cutest J.Crew espadrilles! Check my Instagram (@styleonthegeaux) for a picture of my basket!

Today, I went to my aunt and uncle's house with my entire family, and I had a blast! I got to see everyone, and I finally got to wear my new Lilly Pulitzer dress, so that was a major plus! Here is my bright and fun Easter outfit!

Easter Basket Ideas

Easter is this Sunday, and I don't think that I've ever been this excited for Easter! Not only is this William's first Easter, but all of my family will be in town, so I will get to visit with everyone including all of my beloved out-of-town cousins (s/o to Colleen!!) My family is pretty spread out over the United States and over the state in general. Most of us live within a four hour radius, but I also have family in Charleston and D.C.! For Easter, we all either meet at my grandparents' house or my aunt and uncle's house, but they both live within 20 minutes of each other, so it doesn't really matter. This year, we are going to my aunt and uncle's house for Easter lunch and our annual Easter egg hunt even though most of the cousins are grown now.

I know that it can sometimes be a bit tricky to pick out small trinkets and gifts for the Easter baskets, so I compiled a list of some things that I think would be fabulous for any gal out there to wake up to! Now, my family does not give gifts for Easter because we like to stick to the traditional Easter candy, but I think that my parents have a few tricks up their sleeves for our Easter baskets this year! Here are some Easter basket ideas! Enjoy!

Step Into Spring Link-Up

Hey y'all! I am so ready for the warm spring time weather, and I'm sure that you are too! To step into spring on the right foot, I took a trip to J.Crew Factory with my sister and went on a shopping spree!! I purchased so many adorable pairs of shorts which you will see later, and I am so excited to show you guys how I styled all of my new clothes! See how I styled a pair of neon floral shorts with a cream piko shirt below! Also, this post is actually a spring link-up with a ton of fabulous bloggers! This was a great idea, so I would like to thank Mikayla for hosting it! Link-ups are such a fun way to meet more bloggers like yourself!!

DISCLAIMER: I am so sorry for the "mirror selfies", but I did not have my fabulous photographer with me today (s/o to Caroline)!!

Spring Break Essentials

Hey y'all! I have been crazy busy lately, so I'm so sorry that I haven't posted in forever! All of my teachers are cramming so many tests in to make sure that we are done before spring break! The stress of the tests is one of the main reasons why I cannot wait for it to come so I can just relax and hang out with friends! I am actually going to the beach over spring break, so these are my spring break and beach essentials!

Cross Body

You don't want a big, bulky tote or purse to lug around the beach, so it's always best to use a small, cute cross body like this one!

Sandals

This is a given because what else are your perfectly polished toes and feet going to wear?

Beach Bag

I absolutely adore shopping for beach bags! They are too cute and hold all of your beach essentials!

Sunglasses

These are so necessary since it is so sunny at the beach! My favorites are the Ray-Ban Clubmaster which is pictured below!

Floppy Hat

Floppy hats are just so precious not to mention they give you amazing coverage from the sun!

I hope that y'all enjoyed this post! Have fun and be safe during spring break!
