Recap: Stripes

How do you explain away six months?!? Goodness, if you would have asked, I wouldn't have told you it had been that long. I learned two things: graduating makes you BUSY and time flies!

Since that last SXSW post, we really hit the ground running with life. I was treated to a trip to Harry Potter World/Disney World, wrapped up my final year of nursing school, GRADUATED with my Bachelor's of Science in Nursing (in which my beloved Dots did amaaaazing with pictures!!! She's a great photog- hit her up!), studied for the hardest test of my life, passed the NCLEX, played maid of honor in my friend's wedding, celebrated graduation in Canada, searched for a job, celebrated again with a BFF trip to Chicago, found a job, and moved to Houston where I started work. Wowza. Craziest and one of the most unforgettable summers of my life. Happy that season has passed and I can now (officially) enjoy the greatest season of all- FALL!

Here's a few of my favorite moments! What fun to relive such momentous occasions. 


the most fun grad photo shoot!

If I were to post an "outfit photo" from the past few months, it would be scrubs. But, I can tell you, I have some of the cutest scrubs one can have! On a real fashion note, I have spent much of my spare time searching for the perfect pair of brown riding boots, and I finally succeeded! I think they deserve their own post, they are that pretty. And also because maybe many of you are on a similar hunt. Us girls have to help each other out.


I have an exciting event I attended recently... stay tuned, I can't wait to share! Also, check back for Dots' recap- she had an incredibly busy summer!
