Hello 2015...

Sweater | Lipstick 

I was recently featured on Stila's Instagram... it was definitely a "pinch me!" moment!

I went for a quick run by the lake on a warmer-than-average Saturday morning and the view was picturesque! One of the perks of living by a lake I guess.

I hadn't been to a Sephora in over 3 months so I went ALL OUT over Christmas break!

A fun night out with new friends in Okoboji. 

I'm so excited for 2015 and I have big dreams for this year! I have a lot of fun things to be excited about, in my work, in this blog and in friendships. Thank you to all of you who have followed along the last year - I can't wait for the next adventure in 2015 :) 

Royally Oversized...

Sweater: Dillard's | Pants: Calvin Klein | Booties: Sam Edelman | Bag: Longchamp | Sunnies: Target, love these | Necklace: old, similar here and here | Watch: Michael Kors | Bracelets: kate spade, Mindy Mae's Market | Earrings: J.Crew | Lips: MAC - Happy Go Lucky (similar) 

An oversized sweater was much needed after eating so many Christmas treats! I'm definitely going to try to get a head start on the new years resolutions, but in the mean time, this sweater from Dillard's will do. I have to mention that these Sam Edelman booties are sooooo comfortable! I've worn them for two days straight now and I don't want to take them off! I can't wait to wear them with spring dresses too. Oh spring, why can't you come sooner? 

I'm now back in NW Iowa after taking a "Christmas vacation". I already miss my family! I'm traveling back to Des Moines quite a bit in the next month for work and other commitments, so I'll see them again shortly (yay!). I definitely enjoy being back on my regular "schedule" though. I thought I would never say this, but I actually miss my morning protein shakes :/ Is this what growing up feels like? 

Thanks for reading! Make it a great day.
