The question we always ask around this time of the year..."WHERE DID THE SUMMER GO?!?" I know, technically we have one more month, but even though I'm an adult and out of college, I still associate the "back-to-school" season as the end of summer vacation. I was inspired to create my own "back-to-school" look today and started with a fun pair of kicks! I'm loving these Nike ones I scored for cheap at Ross over the weekend! Sneakers are a big trend for this fall (and we're not just talking at the gym!), so have fun dressing them up or down this upcoming season!

As always, I'm grateful for my awesome husband who takes such great photos for this blog and makes it fun! You can check out more of his photography here!

Thanks for dropping by! :)

I wore this outfit to a Ben Rector concert Reed and I attended this past weekend. We LOVE Ben Rector. It was our third time to see him together, my fourth time total. We used at least 3 of his songs throughout the course of our wedding. We're just a little obsessed.

I've noticed lately on almost a daily basis that I've been answering "Target" for any given item of clothing or accessory I'm wearing. I'm literally wearing it head-to-toe in the outfit above. So I guess that means I'm just a little obsessed with Target as well. When I find a band/artist I love, I can't help but go all out. I have the need to get every album they've ever released (on our way home from the concert, Reed and I found an album by Ben that we didn't own and immediately proceeded to download it from iTunes). I guess the same can be said for stores I love. Within reason of course. I promise I haven't bought everything from Target's fall line :).

From a serious, practical standpoint though, buying multiple items from the same line or collection at any store can make creating outfits much easier, almost to the point where they create themselves! This is such a blessing when life gets hectic, just like it's starting to become with the holidays around the corner.

Holidays. Wow. Are we really this close to Thanksgiving and Christmas??? Heaven help us :)

Thanks for stopping by, I know I've slacked over the past couple of weeks! Thanks for bearing with me! :)
