Tuesday May 19th, 2014: Graduation Party

Life

Hi! If you follow me on Instagram you know that my sister (who lives in Mexico) surprised me for my graduation. So I spent the weekend doing all sorts of graduation festivities and spending time with all my family that was in town (like all 20 of us!)

The weekend was so much fun. I was surrounded by so much love. I’m truly blessed with the best family! I still can’t believe that I graduated high school. I still feel like I’m a chubby 5th grader. Oops. Well here’s to the next chapter. *insert scared eyes emoji*

Today I’m sharing pictures from my graduation party last Saturday. A few months back my mom and cousin started planning this beautiful soirée. I told them I wanted simple, fresh flowers, and light pinks. It turned out more beautiful than I could even imagine. The centerpiece on the island cannot even be described. The pictures don’t do it justice either. I’m pretty sure they could be professional party planners. 🙂

Also I’m writing from Mexico today so Hola is more proper. 😉 A few months back I shared this post about my sister and the mission work she is doing in Mexico with Global Education Ministries. So I flew back to Mexico with her yesterday to see all the ins and outs. I’m excited to spend the next 10 days here. I’ll be sharing posts later  about my time here so stay tuned.

 I pray everyone has a blessed day!

For Christmas one of my closest friends gave me this sweater.. And it’s one of my favorites! Sundays are my favorite day of the week because church, food, and naps! Also it’s from one of my favorite stores, Hallie B. They are located in Rockwall, Texas. Hallie B is also launching their online store soon, and you won’t want to miss that! If you’re in the area make sure to stop by. Don’t forget to follow Hallie B on Instagram to see all their new arrivals! Happy Tuesday.

Also, I am officially THE worst blogger… I am so sorry I’ve been AWOL but life has been a tad hectic. While I could bore you with all the details, I’ll just leave it as that. Also, incase you were wondering I shot this outfit in February… Lol. Hopefully I’ll get better at posting more often!

Happy Wednesday! I’m wearing one of my favorite sweaters. It’s so versatile. I can wear it by itself, with a collared shirt layered under it, or like this with with a lace undershirt. Having a sweater like this is in your closet is key! Hope everyone is having a great week. 🙂

Happy Monday! Yesterday was such a beautiful day! The weather was 70 so I got to wear sandals… 🙂 As much as I like the cold weather, I just LOVE the warmer weather. But today I’m sharing an outfit that is very typical for us Texans! We can’t wear thick sweaters because by noon its so hot… So I have to stick to layers and scarfs. I love the texture of the sweater mixed with the pattern of the scarf. Here’s to an awesome week! 🙂

Friday February 6th, 2015: Loving Pinterest

Favorite Fridays

Happy Friday! It’s been a while since I’ve posted a Favorite Friday. I’m sharing something I’ve been a little obsessed with recently, Pinterest! It’s where I get a majority of my fashion, food, decor, and party inspiration.

pinterest

One thing that is really easy to do on Pinterest, is get overwhelmed. I’ve been there before! So. Many. Pins. So I’m sharing some tips on how to use Pinterest for it’s maximum potential!

1. Stay Organized!

I try to keep my boards as organized as possible! This is so important because all those great pins are going to get lost in a board with thousands of pins varying on topics. When I first started using Pinterest I had three boards that I pinned everything to. Over the years I’ve created new boards for more specific purposes (I have 33 now…)

2. Pin What You Truly Might Do, Make, Buy, Etc.

I’m all about dreaming but if all you pin is wedding dresses, mansions, and recipes you’ll never try, you aren’t using Pinterest for all it’s capabilities! Dreaming is awesome but also be realistic. Why is this important? Example: Say you want to plan out your outfit for the day so you head to your Pinterest for some ideas but all you have is red carpet dresses. Sometimes you have to have a mix of both! 🙂

3. Check Out Random Tabs

I’ve learned to check out the “Architecture,” “History,” “Technology,” and “Art” every once in a while to see fresh ideas and pins. I love to see new ideas and get inspiration for fashion and home decor!

4. Have Fun

Pinterest is meant to be fun! Don’t take yourself too seriously. Breathe when you get overwhelmed, and have some fun!

I hope this post has inspired you to use Pinterest more often and have some fun. Follow me on Pinterest at, thatotherhan 🙂

Today I wearing a really cozy cape. I had been looking for a cape but didn’t want to spend over twenty dollars so I waited and like always, Kohl’s came to the rescue. I LOVE Kohl’s. I can always count on Kohl’s to have the best prices and sales. I refuse to ever buy something there full priced. This cape cost like $17.99. You can’t beat that! The pattern is fun without being too busy, which is what I like to wear! Check those sale racks this time of year for awesome scarfs, capes, hats, and gloves on major sale! Happy Tuesday. 🙂

Happy Monday! I’ve been on Christmas break for a few weeks and any free time I have I spend it curled up in my bed watching Gossip Girl (I. Can’t. Stop.)… My sister jokingly said, you need to an outfit post on what you’ve really been wearing on Christmas break. So I decided to take her advice and do a little casual outfit post! Just a little side note… The slippers I’m wearing are my absolute favorite! They are like fuzzy socks but better.

Happy Wednesday! Today I’m wearing this really awesome sweater. My mom picked this up for me a few months back at Kohl’s for like five dollars… She always has the best luck with sales! The reason I love it so much is because of the mix of fabrics. The back is my favorite! Also I picked this necklace up from JCrew a few weeks on sale so you’ll be seeing me wear it a lot. 🙂
