I feel like I mention this in every life post lately but life is seriously flying by. I’m a senior and life is currently one big mess of trying to cherish every moment of senior year and wish myself to college every other day. So here is a little teeny tiny update for you all of where I am at in the world at the moment.

college// after taking the ACT one last time in September I am fully decided (and in love) with attending the University of Kansas this upcoming fall. my dad was a Jayhawk and I am too excited to carry on that tradition in my family! so much crimson and blue pride and so much rock chalking going on in my house lately! If you’re even slightly interested in KU or are even just a lover of their (amazing) basketball team, check out THIS VIDEO by a former Ku student who was a football player and poet, it’s seriously chills worthy and I tear up every time I watch it.

school life// our school’s huge student led fundraiser just wrapped up and so i’m finally catching a tiny break. I am president of our student board and the group of girls is seriously one of my favorite combinations of people ever, so outspoken and such leaders it makes me proud to be in a room with them every week during meetings, so to any of you reading this: (andie, claire, mary, allie, mal, bunny, lily, emma, and cass) i heart you all bunches and keep up the fab work ladies. I’m also on our dance team and football season games are just coming up starting this friday so i am SO ready to go out and have some friday night lights fun!

well it was a quick but needed chat with you all! love you all so much and hope the fall is treating you just swell!

HELLO FRIENDS AND HELLO FALL! The season of all things pumpkin and the most beautiful clothing ever is finally upon us and I am more than thrilled. Fall may be the busiest time of the year for me academic and socially but there is such thing as Pinterest that keeps me sane (thank goodness). here’s all the fall inspo I’ve been drooling over on my Pinterest feed this coming fall season! warning: lots of gorgeous orange colors and pictures that make you want to live in a world strictly of Octobers

i swoon over stripes. seriously. navy stripes? NONSTOP swoon. also that starbux doesn’t look half bad either

i have a golden so this picture hurts my heart with its cuteness overload. also the pumpkin patch is 100% my favorite activity of all time in the fall. just call me a season pass holder…but really..i am.

i found you little fall booties…ha ha ahah i’m a lot less funny than I think i am. but really these booties are DARLING along with just about every fall shoe out there. Target has gorgeous fall shoes right now i cannot wait to snag here soon and stomp through leaves in!

coffee in the fall, nuff said. yes i am a PSL groupie and wouldn’t change a thing.

this grey sweater/sassy topknot combo are seriously worth drooling over. I love love LOVE basic sweaters for fall and can’t wait to add a few (too many) to my collection this year to pair with leggings or colored pants and those lovely booties!

i have NOT yet picked up a pair of bean boots and am not sure if i’m going to…I’m currently deciding between these and the simply adorable Sperry ones in the hot pink color because when it comes in pink…you buy it in pink.

amen.

xoxo, happy fall, Ally

I have been wanting a fur vest forEVER and when I saw this fur one in the women’s section at Target I was beyond excited. I picked up the $34.99 beauty and made my rounds around the store making sure I could impulse buy a few things before leaving (hello holiday section…). On my way out i happened to pass through the kid’s section to spot an almost identical vest for only $24.99!!!!!! I quickly swapped mine out for an XL kids and saved $10! The kids only comes in white instead of cream and the rose color the women’s does and is a little less shaggy but I personally love it even more! I am seriously too excited to pair it with so many flannels and other shirts this fall! Make sure you pick one up at target as well!

xoxo, Ally
