POP IT LIKE CHAMPAGNE

FIRST: 

This photo. I mean who doesn't love a little VEUVE, in case you didn't know, it sounds a little like LOVE when you say it. I mean it really is liquid love. I may be a little biased considering the fact that I have an empty bottle in my room that I use as a vase. It's the label, I'm telling ya. But Flowers & Champagne are match made in heaven. 

ALSO: 

I am just over a week into senior year and let's just say I'm KILLIN' it. I mean I only go to school for a total of 4 hours a day, hello  BEST senior year schedule, EVER. When I'm not in class I work for my dad at his car dealership, which is super fun especially when the Tigers bring their cars in(insert sly face emoji) The rest of the week I get to do whatever my heart desires which is usually taking a trip to downtown BHAM or Somerset, obviously. 

LASTLY: 

I am WAY too excited to be seeing George Ezra next weekend! I mean Georgie is my fav, OK maybe The Weeknd is my fav but for the sake of this post let's just pretend it's Georgie. Everyone reading this has probably heard his biggest hit, Budapest, but if you haven't heard the rest of the album, go listen to it. NOW. Some of my favorite songs include, Barcelona, Stand by your Gun, Drawing Board, and Breakaway. Truthfully though, they are all FAB.

GETTING REAL

all photos via*

OK. So it's been a month since the last time I updated you. I would say "I'm sorry" or "It won't happen again" but we all know that this is in fact going to happen again. I never wanted to be one of those bloggers who reached a point where they felt the need to post EVERY SINGLE DAY just because. NO, I do not pre-schedule posts. That's just not me. I share things with you that I find interesting or inciting. I do NOT post just because I want more followers or page views. Frankly, I find it artificial to post just to gain a bigger following, I mean why did you start a blog in the first place. I started one to share things I thought deserved to be shared with like minded others. ALSO, it's a great place to express myself with photos and other things I come across on the Internet. 

YES,  I do apologise for not posting in over a month. That's going to change very soon, with classes having just started, I have more free time(I know that seems like the opposite of how it should be but trust me, it's not) 

Now onto the real reason why I am posting this. QUEEN aka Olivia Palermo is collaborating with Bauble Bar to create a line of jewelry inspired by the growing new meets old trend. Even though the pieces won't be avaliable until the 29th of September, I already see things that for lack of better terms, I NEED. I do hope you enjoy the photos from the shoot!
