Favorite Blogging Locations+Photography Tips
Today I am sharing my 3 favorite places to take photos, my photography tips for those of us with a low quality camera, and the perfect outfit for blogging photos! In that order! 1. Wall Art: This is my tip for if you are taking photos with an average iPhone (not 7+), and I will talk about even more tips for those of us using our iPhones for blogging later in this post! Taking pics in front of a wall with a low quality camera will hide the fact that it is low quality and turn out better than taking it in open space (in my opinion). I also like…

The Meaning Behind my Blog name!
If you have been following along with my Instagram for a while, then you know my username used to be @classicprep98 ! I chose that username because when I began my Instagram I had an only preppy style and had been following many other accounts with “prep” in their username so I thought it would be a way to attract other girls that love the preppy style! You can read more all about transition and how I became a blogger here: White Jean Skirt Sunglasses Jack Rogers About a year ago, I decided to start a blog to make my account more of a platform for me to share…

Why I’m a Blogger
For as far back as I can remember, I have loved clothing. When I would play with my Barbie Dolls or American Girl Dolls, all I would do was dress them in outfits, set the scene, and then take it apart and set a new scene. I would literally just changed their outfits all day long. Every beach trip I would look forward to the shopping day. That’s right, shopping was always more exciting than the beach or pool, and still is! I would watch America’s Next Top model just to see all the high fashion items and loved the Hannah Montana scenes of Miley in the Hannah closet and…

5 Tips for Preparing for your First Day Back to High School!
1. Practice Sleep Schedule: This is one I definitely should do. If you are like me and are the absolute worst at waking up on time, you need to practice waking up in the morning so you are not late on your first day. My number one tip- SET MORE THAN ONE ALARM ON MORE THAN ONE DEVICE. I personally have about 7 alarms set on my iPhone and also an actual alarm clock because, for whatever reason, my iPhone is notorious for having the alarm screen up as if it is going off and no noise coming out. And trust me, my sound is on and my volume is…

Tips for Applying for Scholarships
This post is going to be very similar to this post: Tips for Applying for and Choosing your College!, with a few changes! There are several different scholarships available out there for all different types of people and are awarded for all different reasons. There are ones for the college you will be attending, the major you plan to pursue, and even ones for your specific county! There are also general scholarships open to everyone, but those tend to get more applicants and are therefore harder to get. Scholarships can be awarded for Academic Achievement, Financial Need, and Merit Achievement, so choose the ones you feel are geared towards your strong…

Tips for Applying for and Choosing your College!
Choosing which Colleges to Apply for: My main tip for choosing which schools to apply to is to follow your heart and choose the schools that have the majors you want to pursue. Everyone gets in their heads that there are schools that they should not apply for because they believe they will not et in or they feel like they cannot go there because that is not what their parent want or they think they cannot afford it. Even if you think you will not get in, take the chance. If you do not, you will regret it. You never know what a college is going to think about…
