Oh Christmas Tree!

Boots/ Dolce Vita Skirt/ Cotton On V-neck/ Cotton On Necklace/ ASOS Hat/ Target
Am I the only one that gets in a good mood when the smell of christmas trees is lingering in the air? I might be the odd one, but these trees just stir up the christmas spirit within. Anyway, I hope you are in the Christmas spirt and if you aren't..I hope this post motivates you to be!
Lets talk about my look.. honestly with finals and all I have been a tad bit lazy and that is reflected in my wardrobe. Even though I haven't been completely energized, I do feel that being simple is good! Less is more, right? :)

P.S. Not sure if you noticed, but I made a email for Scarlet Lips! Feel free to email me! Don't be shy!
Also, I would love to hear your thoughts on ideas for future posts. I am open for questions, ideas, suggestions.. you name it! Comment below or email me. 
Thanks for reading!

Just about everything


My time has been consumed by lots of reading, writing and coffee breaks. Finals week has almost come to an end and I can see freedom in the horizon. After tuesday I'll be a free gal! Looking forward to lots of sleep and catching up with the blog. Forgive my absence once again.. Id rather take pictures all day then study history and write papers. 
Here are a few shots from this week:
Lately I have been: 
1. Taking selfies in my famous mirror
2. Obsessed with permanent mocha lattes from Starbucks 
3. Admiring the beautiful Christmas decorations in my house
4. Spending time singing Christmas songs (something special is coming soon)
5. Repeating #1 because I don't have time to take outfit posts.. haha Besides that, I really love these peonies in my room.. so perfect! 

Thanks for reading!

Thanksgiving Breakfast


Happy Thanksgiving!!!
 It is a tradition in my family to wake up on thanksgiving morining and watch The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade!!! I am a bit too excited haha. This year we planned a huge breakfast for my little family to hold us off until our Thanksgiving party which involves two turkeys! Not just one but two! My family loves to eat and we make a big deal out of food. 
My favorite part of breakfast was the pumpkin pancakes and you can make them too!
Enjoy!
I am thankful today, forever and always for the blessings of life, where I live, family, friends and most importantly for Jesus! Whatever and who ever you are thankful for make sure they know :)
Thank you for stoping by and reading.. I am truly thankful to share a bit of my life with you all.

Stay tuned for the another post today.. Ill be showing you my outfit for the thanksgiving dinner!
See ya soon!
