It was absolutely wonderful to end 2022 with Yours Truly by Abby Jimenez 😍 I don’t like to pick favorites when it comes to my top authors, but this adorable fake dating romance may very well be my favorite book by her! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

I’m a seriously picky romance reader, but Abby’s blend of sweetness and substance never ceases to amaze me and Yours Truly was no exception 🀎 Just like her previous novels, this one made me cry my eyes out as I saw bits and pieces of myself in each of the characters πŸ₯Ή It was just SO GOOD, y’all, and you can find the full review on my blog! 🫢🏼

Are you planning to pick up Yours Truly when it comes out in April? πŸ“– Have you read any of Abby’s other phenomenal romance novels? πŸ₯°

Fashion, Summer · September 25, 2019

The Outfit That Instagram Begged Me to Post

My Instagram audience begged me to share this tropical print skirt ensemble, so despite my desire to share all things fall, I’m posting this instead!

Okay, so I actually have a couple of outfits that are still more “summer” than “autumn” – since I took the photos on our vacation to Florida. However, they’ve been continuously delayed, because of a family health emergency. If you follow me on social media, you know that I’ve posted a handful of times that my dad has been in the ICU for a week. It’s been scary and, without going into much detail, life-altering. However, we’re still hoping and praying for a full recovery and while a good amount of my work will be done from his bedside in the hospital, I know he’d want me to keep moving forward.

That being said, instead of filling this entire post with just a crazy life update or all my emotions, I am going to share this gorgeous, tropical print skirt with you! I knew it would be the ideal piece to bring to Florida, and I was 100% right. I shot the photos on our last day there, and was definitely more than glistening. Ya’ll, I will never ever understand people who enjoy the heat. It’s definitely not for this gal. I may be dressing for summer, but I’m way ready for autumn to fully begin.


Outfit Details
skirt c/o Chicwish | similar blouse | heels | earrings c/o Sugarfix | bag c/o Amerii

I love the fullness of this tropical print skirt. It’s elegant and perfect to wear for a night out!

Honestly, if I had the opportunity, I would wear this outfit to go dancing. It’s comfortable and cool, and the material of the skirt doesn’t feel heavy or itchy in any way. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again:Β I love a “spinny skirt” (as I used to call them as a kid). Anything a-line or circle-style is perfect for twirling! I can imagine wearing this to go salsa dancing!

If you’re completely unlike me and don’t want summer to end, this is the skirt for you. While I was able to wear it with a short-sleeve blouse and heeled sandals, you could certainly pair it with a long-sleeve bodysuit and booties and wear it into autumn. You’ll also be able to bring it back out again in the springtime, and tropical prints like this will never be out of style, so this skirt will last you for years!

Crazy enough, my very favorite book of all time is a stand-alone fantasy 😱 If you don't listen to a single other book recommendation I have this year, that's fine, but *please* read Into the Heartless Wood by Joanna Ruth Meyer 🌲 It is absolute perfection! 🀌🏼

What is your favorite graphic novel? 🎨 It was What is your favorite graphic novel? 🎨

It was only this past year that I really discovered how much I enjoy graphic novels πŸ’₯ I’ve always liked comic books and graphic novels are just an elevated kind of comic book 🀌🏼

Even though I preordered and listened to the audiobook for Demon in the Wood (blame it on my love for Ben Barnes as a narrator), I also got myself a physical copy because it’s just too gorgeous to pass up 😍 Just like the rest of the Grishaverse books, the naked cover is breathtaking with the most perfect silver embossing on deep purple πŸ’œ I could read this one over and over again (and I probably will)! πŸ“–

Have you read Demon in the Wood? πŸŒ‘
