As the countdowns come to the end of the school year. We’re dipping our toes in the pool and eating more fruit than usual. Signs that summer is just around the corner.
I’m here gearing up my Pinterest boards to reflect my hopes for the summer while still trying to remind myself to enjoy the few days of true spring weather we in SoCal have been having.
While my friend is stuck with Snow Tornados, this week had a heat advisory for my area. I guess it’s not Spring weather though. So while we continue to hope for some true Spring weather here is what I’m doing.
Dr. Seuss Baking Challenge which can be watched free with ads on Prime, even if you don’t have Prime.
After having Dr. Seuss week in class this month it’s been fun to watch all the creative Seusstastic Dessert ideas, and the Seussical twists for the bakers.
Mumford and Sons new album- Prizefighter. Can’t get enough of it!
If you’ve been following along since my college days you know I’ve had my friend style me a few times before. They are always such fun posts. Since it’s been quite a few years since we’ve done one, and I’m feeling creatively uninspired with my current wardrobe, we thought it was the perfect time to bring it back!
She created a few different mood boards to describe the styles she thinks could fit me best. Then we went through my wardrobe using the Indyx App so she could see everything without me having to hold it up to the facetime. So useful!
Here is what she came up with. Five different styles using only things I already own.
First the visions, then the execution, and finally how I felt.
“I feel like the boho trends are coming back just in a slightly different way. No more printed shirts and “hipster” type skirts, This is more feminine with ruffled and tapered skirts, knits, even some satin like fabric shirts and tanks.”
We are well into May (can you believe that??) and the return of nice weather deserves some recognition of my spring favorites!
Joe Jonas
I am really excited for Joe Jonas’ new album. I have his released singles Heart by Heart and Work it Out on repeat constantly! Driving, dancing around my room, getting ready. I love the sound, and am excited to hear what else is on his new album Music For People Who Believe in Love, releasing May 23!
As this year comes to a close I can’t help but wonder where it went. A lot of people I talk to say that 2024 felt never ending to them, but to me it all blurred together and I can hardly believe it’s been 365 days since I drove home from a New Year’s Eve party.
2024 had its ups and downs and lots of stagnant moments but with the 25th year of my life slowly wrapping out I spent some time scrolling back through my photo album. I learned I need to take more photos and videos of memories outside of just my students, but amongst the class parties and photos of my students’ latest playdough creations, I found something beautiful from each month.
Mid-October makes me want to accept that it’s a new season, though I always miss summer. I am ready for Fall outfits and cozy weather… if California will get on board and drop the temperature. Here is what I’ve been loving so far this October.
To play in my car with the windows up and the A/C on haha. At least I can pretend it feels like Autumn outside.
If you are hanging out in SoCal you need to have some places to eat, and lucky for you I spent the summer doing just that. From Palm Springs to Laguna Beach and some places in between I’ve got you covered. (Check out my SoCal Tourist post for things to do!)
Summer is in full swing and after taking a month to relax and wind down after the school year I am getting antsy. Here is what I am most hoping to accomplish in the next 6 weeks before I go back to work.
My reading goal has not been going lol So I hope to read at least 4 books before work begins again. I am about 40 pages away from finishing one book and hoping that the next few books I choose will be great enough to fly through. Fingers crossed.
