OOTD: October 19, 2017
So it turns out this daily outfit of the day blog series is not working out so well, but I am doing my best. Today I had to go interview a doctor for my Entrepreneurial Thinking class so I had to dress up more than I would for an average college day. This is basically y the outfit I wore, but surprisingly enough, it has gotten colder here in North Carolina. Since Mother Nature has finally decided it is fall, I paired this outfit with my J.Crew field jacket and riding boots instead of Jack Rogers. Anyways, since I had the interview, I wore this collared shirt from the Vineyard…

OOTD: October 16, 2017
Today’s OOTD is full of SGP! Today is the first day that it has realistically been cold enough to break out the L.L. Bean Boots and fleece vests here in North Carolina, even though I brought them out about a week ago. And let me tell you, I am so beyond excited to be able to wear bean boots and vests all day instead of having them on in the morning and having to change into shorts by 1:00. Today I am wearing one of my basic fall outfits. As you all probably know by now, my Bean Boots are my number one essential for fall. Speaking of fall essentials,…

OOTD: October 11, 2017
This Victoria Secret PINK tee was sent to me to share with y’all and it is honestly one of my favorite tees ever! I love how neon the pink is and I have tied a knot on the side to give it a little extra detail! I am also wearing Hollister shorts, a black choker, my Kendra Scott Elle’s, and my white kids Converse! These Hollister shorts are some of my favorite shorts. I normally wear a double zero in J.Crew and Lilly Pulitzer and I purchased a double zero in these! These fit me perfectly, but I have another pair of double zero Hollister shorts that are too tight,…

Fall Look Book Part 1//Styling L.L. Bean Boots!
Today I am sharing part one of my fall look book! This look book contains more “preppy” style clothing and each outfit is paired with L.L. Bean Boots, which is why I have also titled it “Styling L.L. Bean Boots!” If you prefer videos over blog posts, this look book is on YouTube too! Click Here To Watch In this first look, I am wearing this popover plaid flannel from J.Crew Factory that I scored on Black Friday last year! It is a thicker flannel material and has a half-zipper, so it is styled more like a light weight jacket- perfect for layering! I could not find the exact flannel,…

OOTD: October 10, 2017
Three days in a row! I cannot believe I have been able to keep this daily OOTD series going! If you have not already noticed, clearly I am obsessed with Lilly Pulitzer Kids leggings. If you have not heard all my hype over these already, you can read about it in yesterdays OOTD post: OOTD: October 9, 2017. Today I am pairing this psychedelic pair with my terry cloth Jadelynn Brooke tee. This tee is super soft and so easy to style! Since it is terry cloth, it would also be perfect to wear as a swim cover up in the summer! You can use my code ONNCSU for 15%…

OOTD: October 9, 2017
Woohoo! This Outfit of the Day series is still going strong! Today I am wearing yet again, items that I 100% recommends, and, yet again, kids items. I’m telling y’all, if you wear smaller sizes, ALWAYS try kids! Their items are SO much cheaper! This kids popover from Lilly Pulitzer is another color way remake of an original print, like I explained in yesterdays post: OOTD: October 8, 2017 . Anyways, since this popover is kids, it retails for only $52! If you do not know, the adult popovers retail for $98. Yep! Basically DOUBLE the kids price! I bought a kids XL in this popover and it fits me like an…

OOTD: October 8, 2017
I recently ran a poll on my Instagram story (@brightestofthebunch) asking if y’all prefer to see my OOTD’s on Snapchat (brightestotb) or if I should do them on the blog. Of course, y’all chose the version that requires more work for me, the blog. However, I am still going to post outfits on my snap, especially if I am not able to get a blog post up that day, so make sure to add me there! Anyways, then y’all said I have to WEAR the outfit the day I post it. I promise, I will try my best, but this daily series may not be so daily if that means…

Characteristics of a Libra and how accurate they are for me
Hey y’all! I was watching Kendall Rae’s old YouTube video about Libra’s (she has not made her new one for this year yet) and I was shocked at how accurate the characteristics are! I also did a little research of my own, so today I am going to be sharing what I have learned about Libra’s and how accurate I think my zodiac is! Pleasant, put words together well, charming I would like to think that I am these things, but I am not sure that I can testify that I am. Kendall states that people often think they are flirting when they are not because of how kind and…

How to Study for College Exams
I have officially survived my first week of college exams! Woohoo! 1. You have to study all your subjects every day Okay, maybe not every day. It is unrealistic for anyone to expect college students to study for every class every day. What I mean by this is, do not get behind. Do not wait until a few days before the exam to start studying, especially if it is a cumulative exam. You do not want to get behind and realize two days before the test that you do not understand material from the first week of class and therefore cannot understand any of the following material. Although completely unrealistic,…
