Affordable Christmas Gifts They’ll Use

Let’s be honest: many of us receive gifts that we sadly never actually end up using. Knowing that, there are some items out there that make for great and practical gifts. So, I have come up with a gift guide of gifts that the ladies in your life whether she be your friend, family member, teacher, or yourself will LOVE and USE!

Christmas Gifts for Self Care

I am very excited to have shared my first-ever gift guide apart of my Confetti Gift Guide series!!! With the holidays approaching and 2020 being a rough year for us all, self love and care has become more important than ever before. As it is important to share the love and compassion for others this holiday season, it is also important to provide yourself with some love and care, too. That being said, I decided to put together a gift guide of all things self care! These gifts are perfect to get either for treating yourself or for others this holiday season, as they perfectly embrace the need for nurturing ourselves in 2020, 2021, and beyond!

  1. Bath & Body Works Lotion
  2. Lush Bath Bomb
  3. Cuddl Duds Heated Plush to Sherpa Blanket
  4. Lilly Pulitzer Velour Robe
  5. The Redheaded Camel Bee Kind & Bee Happy Stickers
  6. InnoGear Oil Diffuser

As always, remember that self love is the BEST love!!!

My Lilly Pulitzer Inspired College Apartment

Hey y’all! I am SO excited for today’s post, which is an Apartment Reveal of my on-campus college apartment!!! This is my second year living in this gorgeous apartment that I LOVE to call my home, but I definitely did some decorating here and there since moving in last week. Decorating is one of my favorite hobbies and if I could do it ALL DAY EVERYDAY, then I would. I get such an adrenaline from shopping for decor, especially on a budget. Keeping this in mind, the majority of things in my apartment are from Marshall’s/Home Goods/TJ Maxx, The Dollar Tree, Walmart, The Christmas Tree Shops, Amazon, Hobby Lobby, small businesses such as The Redheaded Camel, The Local Squirrel, and Pamlico Paper Company, gifted to me, things that I already had, secondhand finds, and DIY. My apartment was furnished for the most part, which is an extreme blessing! Hopefully, I can provide you with some decoration inspiration for your own place. Enjoy!!!

What I Wore During the Month of July

For today’s blog post, I got inspired by one of my favorite bloggers, Annaliese at Southern Belle In Training. Each month, she posts her outfits of the day for work, and I thought that it would be fun to do too for each weekday/class day that I have! I have ALWAYS loved sharing my outfits on my platform on my Instagram stories, and I know some of y’all enjoy seeing them too. Hopefully, I can provide you some outfit inspiration along the way! Cheers 🙂
