I'm done; I'm finally finished with my high school career.

To celebrate this momentous event, I wore this gorgeous beaded dress with a peacock detail. The bright colors and fun pattern were perfect for the celebratory mood. To complement the dress, I chose an understated pair of nude wedges. They were the perfect alternative to spiky heels while still giving me some height - I couldn't risk tripping on stage!

It's so hard to believe that I will never again be a student at the institution I've spent the last thirteen years of my life. As amazing as this experience has been, it is truly a bitter sweet time in my life. Yes, I am leaving a place that is safe and well-loved; however, I get to move on to bigger and better things - most notably, college. In a few short months, I will be taking my first steps on to campus as a college freshman. It's terrifying, but I can't wait! Goodbye, high school.

Stay Excited,

Samantha

I'm not going to lie to you - I've never really been that interested in sports (you probably knew that already though, didn't you?). However, with the recent influx of the "sport luxe" trend, I've been able to show off my well-hidden and likely underdeveloped inner tomboy. I've had these striped shorts since last summer, but I love the way they look with my new 90's inspired leather halter. I aimed to stay away from a track shorts and t-shirt ensemble for my own unique twist on this hot summer trend. How did I do?

Stay Sporty,

Samantha
