Note to self: If you take blog pictures over the weekend, be sure to grab your camera, which in turn, has the camera card in it with your pictures on it. Said camera card is needed to upload photos, after all. I'll blame it on the fact that I had an incredible weekend, but I was also thinking logically. My cousin is getting married this weekend, so I'll be heading back home Wednesday night for the festivities and won't need it between now and then. So, for now, here's a peek into what was a great 4th of July weekend!

Heading towards Wilmington -- and straight into Hurricane Arthur. My co-pilot is ready.

Yes, this pup gets on the floats by herself.

Shameless "America selfie." Oops.

Boat rides with my babies.

Precious family time.


You'll find a style post featuring this Gravel Road tee soon!

So wonderful to have a home that makes leaving so hard!


Hope you had the best weekend! Now, it's back to the grind. But first, coffee!

I was Raleigh bound for the weekend, and it couldn't have been better. Though it feels like I spend my life on the road, the results are so perfect that it doesn't matter. SW, Soph and I headed to Raleigh Friday evening and met up with some of our best friends. We spent the rest of the weekend with them at the NCSU/UNC game and out, and I also got to do a little catching up with some friends from the Miss North Carolina Organization.

Check out the weekend:

Friday was a dreary day, but I didn't mind it because I broke out my new Hunter boots.

A gorgeous Saturday at Carter Finley with my favorite guy.


Reunion with my best friends.


I wore The Raleigh bangle to support the Wolfpack!


We couldn't have asked for better fall football weather.
(And Vaughn Towers treated us nicely too)

what i wore:
sweater: target // jeans: forever 21 (old) // necklace: a modern boutique // boots: frye

So happy it's Friday! Once 5:00 rolls around, I will be good to go! What are 5 things I'm loving on this beautiful fall Friday?


:: ONE :: 
This gorgeous fall weather and the fact that it is almost October!
Orange and Annie of Green Gables. Yes.

:: TWO :: 
My sweet mom, grandmother, and sister are coming today! I am so excited for them to visit -- and my little sister has never seen my new apartment, so I'm excited for that too!

:: THREE :: 
Finishing the decorating process! My bedroom is pretty much just how I want it, but the living room is still a work in progress. We're going to work on that tomorrow. Here's a little inspiration.
Grey couch

:: FOUR ::
I really want to try Essie's Smokin' Hot nail color. My friends all pick on me because I choose boring neutrals most of the time (cue Bubble Bath), but I am loving this for a lovely fall mani.

:: FIVE ::
Last but certainly not least, this giveaway that I'm partnering on with Unique Chic! Be sure to check it out here and enter to win this fun necklace as well as check out their other looks!

Hope you have a great weekend!

xoxo,
Zelle
