Lilly Resort 2013!

So glad Lilly is finally selling wristlets again!

I feel like this is a more 'classic' Lilly print.

 

They don't sell these shorts yet (fingers crossed!) but I'm already head over heels for them.

Overall I don't love the collection, however, I do like it and am already pretty fond of Mai Tai in small doses. Congrats to the Pink & Green Palace!

Retail Therapy

This past week was particularly stressful. Like hell-week-I-didn't-know-I-was-going-to-have-and-doing-assignments-the-class-period-before-they're-due-stressful.
Not fun. But today I have no school and tomorrow is for sure going to be an easy day and my mom was nice enough to indulge me in some (much-needed) online retail therapy. (I haven't been shopping since tax-free weekend in August, about two months ago. I think that's a new record.)

What I Bought: 

Keeper Chambray Shirtdress

Outfit inspiration. Can I please have CP's entire wardrobe?

I cannot wait to wear this.

Belts to wear with my chinos next summer. 

So I've been eyeing those belts for a couple months and I didn't know they were embroidered all the way around until after I ordered them... oops. At least they were over 1/2 off. #winning

Happy Columbus Day!

Phone Cases

I'm getting wayyy tired of my Otterbox, so I've been perusing for a new phone case. Here are some I've found that I like!

I found this Kate Spade case at Nordstrom and I want it. The words are glittery. I repeat, glittery. 

I love these phone cases from The Preppy Planet! They're from the Rugby Stripe Collection.

This phone case is so darling!

 I hope everyone has a good Sunday and an even better week! 

PS- I really like this phone case too!

Crazy Cords

I was browsing Anthropologie's website when I found these:

I've made it pretty clear that I love plaid, and these took my obsession to a whole new level (like Pluto high). I don't think the world is ready for these pants, Anthro. 

What do you think of them? 

What's In My School Bag

Happy Monday, y'all! I thought I'd share what I take to school.

Everyday Essentials

A-Day

• AP Calculus AB (My teacher is literally the coolest. He tells us stories every class, which eases the pain of the college level math I'm supposed to be understanding.)
• AP Environmental Science

B-Day

•  AP Statistics
• AP British Literature
• AP Macro Economics 

The bags I use: Large Bilberry Longchamp and Black Thule Backpack (stolen from my brother)

Where I got my binder covers: Quatrefoil and Lilly Pulitzer

I think I'm finally getting into the swing of things this week and my classes (read: quizzes and tests) are becoming easier for me. I seriously love all of them. Everything I'm learning them (except Calculus) is starting to match up and connect and I'm loving it.  

Happy Sunday Y'all!

Today was my grandad's 85th birthday, so I drove down the expressway (stressful), over a bridge, to Grandmother's house we go went.

It turned to fall overnight, so I was more than
happy to pull my boots out.

Top: J. Crew (similar)

Skirt: J. Crew (similar)

Boots: The Frye Company

Watch: Kate Spade

My mom made a fabulous coconut cream pie.

I made some tea when I got home.

Curls and pearls for Selfie Sunday. 

 The fact that fall has arrived has put a really rosy glow on the rest of this week. I'm beyond excited to start wearing sweaters (once they're dry-cleaned), boots and vests! Specifically my hunter green one that I got at the J. Crew Factory store in August. Its been sitting in my closet for a month, taunting me, but no longer.

I hope y'all have a fantastic week!

Prep In My... Drive?

I should be getting my licence within the next week or two and I can't wait to start driving! ...and accessorizing.

Cute keychain!

I love this keyfob. Pink and green AND plaid? Yes, please!

I definitely cannot wait to put some bumper stickers on my car... the only thing is I don't know exactly which car will officially be mine, so I probably won't be able to deck my car out choose a limited quantity to put on my back windshield until I go to college (and I'm definitely saving room for my future university's bumper sticker).

• Obviously, VV whales. A total prep staple.
• I've visited Virginia more times than I can count in the past two years and I've really fallen in love with the state. 
• Foxes are my favorite animal and I love plaid and madras, so this Longshanks sticker from Country Club Prep is pretty appealing.
• The Republican Lilly sticker is adorable, but declaring your political stance on your car in some places may or may not leave you with a keyed car, no matter how cute the sticker. 

Actually, revoking my statement about the Lilly sticker... I would have no shame in putting this on my car especially if it was one of our old Mercedes.
