For Gator eyes only..

Many of us Gator Girls know that once October rolls in, gamedays tend to get too chilly for our southern comfort. Unfortunately, many of us also know that it is difficult to find warm orange/blue gear. Last year, while searching for something to wear for the SEC Game in ATL (sorry, 'bama) it was a long haul to even find a blue or orange scarf!

Now that I am multiple states north of dear ole Florida, my winter gator gear search has begun much earlier. Of course each Saturday I will not be afraid to show my true colors, albeit in Wildcat and Cardinal central. Here are a couple scarves I've been able to scoop to start the process:

Bakers - Orange and Blue with a hint of brown "Big Plaid Scarf"

This can be your inspiration piece. Pair it with a solid headband and a white sundress as a perfect transitional piece for the beginning of the season.

Express - Solid Blue Scarf "Oblong Crinkle"

This scarf is a longer piece with more material than the first, it would go great over a long-sleeve top post Florida-Georgia.

Not in my collection, but I spotted this today at The Limited.

I'm a jacket fanatic. Multiple outfits can be paired with this coat as the orange and blue hues are faint enough to not take over your complete look.

To happy shopping and a wonderful season in the Swamp.

Today was a big day for myself and many other individuals. Today, Southern Weddings featured a Real Kentucky Wedding.

This was the first, and the beginning of many, weddings that I took part in. Although I was present for day-of only, it forecasts a wonderful semester...full of design and learning ahead! Check out Southern Wedding's website for a complete look. (post I, post II)

De-but!!

Hey all!

A few of you may know that I have been wanting to blog for forever now. After a few whirlwinds of trying to figure out the HTML I wanted, it is finally happening! I hope my writing involved different aspects of my life and my interests. So here's my dealio..

I am in my last semester as a Florida Gator, however, I am currently fulfilling an internship requirement in Louisville, KY. My major, Event Management, requires a 15-credit internship the semester prior to graduation...so it's basically a full-time type of deal. I am lucky enough to be interning for an event coordination company based here in KY.

Today was my first day and (among other things) I created a couple inspiration boards. I've also always wanted to create these as well, but never knew how to dive into one. I love the idea of having 1 to any number of key pieces to be your inspiration (whether it be wedding design, interior design, etc.) I have also been a long-time follower of SMP - and the lovely creators have now introduced Style Circle, which lets you create your own boards from their images. SO EASY!

The focus for these two were: (1) Champagne & Black (2) Black & Green

I hope you all have enjoyed my first post..look forward to some more great reads..& leave some love on what you think!
