a girl obsession & spring cleaning

entire outfit: F21 // flip flops: Old Navy // necklace: Etsy 

Okay so confession time.  I am sure you are all with me on this one, but I had a minor obsession with the Bachelors this year.  Not because of Sean, I mean he's great, but I was obsessed with some of the girls on the show. Best season yet if you ask me! One girl, who when got voted off I literally cried & stomped my feet was..... Miss Lesley M! First off she is beautiful, she is fashionable & by far had the best personality! I was obsessed. If anyone can remember when she had her 1-on-1 with Sean in St. Croix, Lesley was sporting the CUTEST pink maxi skirt?? Yes, I was obsessed.  It was from Zara & it is currently sold out.  I found this knock off at F21, that I do like, but something about that other skirt was amazing!!! However this maxi is $12 dollars currently at forever so go get yourself one!!!

Recently I have been totally into spring cleaning. My house is becoming much less crowded + it feels amazing. Taking bags and bags of trash out each day is such a relief.  I mean do we actually need all this crap we keep? Answer my ladies is... NO! Get it out & make room for the new. Spring is always a time to start over. Sun is shinning, music is always good this time of year & it is perfect to have a fresh start! I am loving my spring cleaning & organizing that seems to be taking place. So tell me, do you do a big spring cleaning? If so what do you do to organize?! Share your tips I am interested!!!

Haha, this is the first season I did not watch. I didn't like Sean very much. On another note, you are definitely rocking the maxi! Happy Tuesday!

LOVE the outfit!!

I do spring cleaning every year just like my mom. I already made a HUGE list but am waiting a bit until it's warmer out and we can open the windows. I'm talking cleaning baseboards, garbage cans - everything!! And I'm excited for it lol

I love your outfit! I seriously need to step into the fashion world and get out of my typical jeans and t-shirt.

I LOVED Lesley (I kind of wanted her as the next Bachelorette) and I totally remember that skirt.

Unknown said...

you look soo beautiful, my friend!!!! And we are the same person because Lesley was my favorite + I was majorly bummed that I couldn't get my hands on her skirt also! This Forever 21 knock off is amazing though!

love you!

New follower, new friend, looking forward to more:)
