Fall #OOTD

How are you all doing on this cool Sunday morning? I hope you're enjoying the cooler weather as much as I am! (I honestly couldn't stop smiling the first day it was under 60 degrees haha...I'm such a cold-weather person!)

Today, I just wanted to share with you a fall outfit that I'm loving right now! I was inspired to pick up this pinafore dress from Topshop, by my all-time-inspiration, Megan Ellaby (check her out if you haven't already. She's a dream!). The rest of the outfit fell together from there.

How To Accessorize Like a Fashion Blogger

This fall I've been experimenting with different types of accessories and how to style them successfully. Although I'm quite a minimalist when it comes to accessories, I do like to add touches here and there. After researching how all of the most fashionable of fashion bloggers are styling their accessories, I've come up with my tips for successfully embellishing without going overboard!

The Corset: From The 16th Century to The 21st

Who wouldn't want to take a trip back in time to the 16th century when extravagant gowns and bouffant hair were at their height? Although we'd all love to be lords and ladies for a day, a heavy hoop skirt and layers of heavy fabric wouldn't be the most practical for driving cars or going to the grocery store.

Since it's one of the biggest trends of the season, I've decided to take the corset into my own hands and make it my own.

Color Forecast: Spring 2017

So spring has finally sprung, and the weather is slowly changing from dull and chilly to bright, crisp, and a little warmer.

One of the most wonderful things about spring, in my opinion, is the introduction of the color that was lost during those dull winter months. The flowers start blooming and that means your wardrobe can too! I've been thoroughly enjoying adding some pops of color back into my life the past couple weeks, so I thought I would research what colors will be trending this season so you can try them out too. Grab yourself a cup of tea and some chocolate, and let's talk color!

A Touch of the 80s

How are you all doing? I hope you've all had a successful and mostly stress-free week. For this week's post, I want to take you back to the 80s...well maybe not all the way back, but why not dip our toes in a little? We need to discuss how past trends are influencing style today and which throwbacks you should bring back.

Let's Get to Know Each Other

I hope you have all had an amazing week!

This week I thought we should get to know each other a little better. I'll enlighten you with a few facts about myself that you may not already know and you can comment below with your answers to one or more of the questions.

How to Shop Online Like a Pro

I hope you are all having a lovely weekend. I'm sorry I missed last week's post. I am officially starting my senior show at university, so I had a very busy week last week.

Anyway, let's get into this week's post which is all about shopping online. Honestly, online shopping is a little intimidating at first, isn't it? Never fear, Georgie is here! I have a few little tips will make your online experience just that much smoother. I mean think about it, what could be better than shopping from the comfort of your own bed?

How I Learned to Like Working Out

Today I wanted to discuss my workout routine and how I went from not working out at all to enjoying working out multiple times a week! First, I think I need to debunk the perceived notion that a "work out" has to be the intense lifting of 70lbs weights and running 12 miles. There is nothing less motivating than telling yourself that's how it has to be. "Working out" is simply getting out and moving in order to feel better afterward and to keep your body healthy. "Working out" can be hiking in the mountains, like my mom, doing yoga with your friends, or even dancing for an hour!

My Tactics for Fighting Acne

Today, I wanted to discuss a matter I'm sure we'd all wish we could avoid...acne. Since I've been through the pimple-filled teen years and lived to tell the tale, I thought I would share some things I've learned along the way. A couple years into my twenties now, I've realized that the occasional occurrence of spots is here to stay. This my go-to arsenal for keeping those pesky spots in check.

Celebrating A Year of Blogging

I hope you are all getting back into the swing of school or work without mourning the holiday break too much.

So I have some exciting news that has added a little excitement to my new year! My blog has officially been up and running for a year now! Because of how proud I am of this accomplishment, I thought I would look back on some of the highlights of the past year, as a thank you everyone who has supported the blog!
