I Will Be Home Then

I was able to travel back home to Genoa over the weekend for my mom's birthday, and since it was super cold outside, I took some outfit photos in my old room. As I mentioned in this post, over spring break (which is next week, yippee!) I will be compleately transforming this room for when I move back in at the end of the semester. It's crazy how many memories I have in this room; I've lived in this house my whole life, so this room basically represents childhood/teenhood for me. That is why I am going to paint & redecorate, to celebrate a new chapter in my life (even if I am still living with my parents). I'm super excited about it!

I apologize for the blurriness/overexposure of these photos, but I like this outfit anyway, so you will just have to bear with me. I've decided to buy more quality, long-lasting pieces for my wardrobe, even if it means paying a little more, because I will get way more out of it than if I buy a flimsy, $3 shirt on sale. This blouse, for example, I picked up from JCPenny for a little more than I would usually pay for a shirt, but it's so soft and comfy, and I know I will wear it for years. Definitely a good investment.

I've been so addicted to painting my nails lately, and I love the combination of pastel colors + gold, so I tried out an ombre coral and gold design. I love it! What are some of your favorite nail designs/color combinations? I would love suggestions!

I hope you all had a happy Monday! Over in Northern Illinois, we are expecting a huge snowstorm tomorrow, so if you are in it's path too, stay warm! Send me some snow day vibes :)
