Have a wonderful and safe Fourth of July! Enjoy time with family and friends!
Corner News-Apartment Moving Part 1
Well world, it is coming to that time where I have to move…unfortunately. I have thoroughly enjoyed living in the apartment that I will be leaving, but it is time for a new chapter and new things will be happening. I am excited, and nervous, but it will all be good!
So, I had started packing last week when I got my first set of boxes. But, I got really tired of packing and stopped for a while. And then I signed my lease and realized that I need to finish packing everything.
My friend Bekah helped me by coming over for a while and helping me pack. It was so nice to get a lot of stuff done while she was helping me. I got almost everything out of my closet and it is all ready to go into the new place. Yeah!
And this is what my closet currently looks like.
Yeah…I have this problem with not putting hangers back on the hanger holder thingies that I have. So, they just lay on the floor and make it harder for me to walk through to get clothes. Don’t ask…
And now with everything out of my closet, this is what my hallway looks like.
Yep…it’s almost impossible to walk through my hallway. And I have more stuff around the corner.
Thankfully, I will be moving some of my stuff in today since I finally got my key! Hooray! So, I still have a lot of stuff to go, but I am slowly making progress. And I will get through it all, sooner or later. But for the most part, I am getting through everything that I need to get through to move into my new place. Hooray!

It was My Birthday!
Well everyone. It is that time of year where I get to celebrate my birthday yet again! Yippee! I turned 22 this year, which means that I am still a baby and still have soooooo much to learn in life.
But, for my birthday this year my mom, Haley, and I went shopping! Because, who doesn’t like shopping?
So we started shopping at Forever 21. And as usual, I didn’t buy anything. Even though they have some of the cutest clothes, I don’t usually buy anything.
We continued through the mall and stopped at a new store called BoxLunch. When we entered the store, I immediately noticed that it is a lot like Hot Topic but without the goth. There are a lot of fandom items that would make any fangirl happy! There is a lot of items for Harry Potter, Disney, Doctor Who, Marvel, DC, and much much more. But, another reason I like the store is because they give back to community food banks with every purchase. Who would’ve thought? So, I bought a mini pop vinyl figure of Hermoine Granger.
And I bought a Five Nights at Freddy’s mystery box. There are 12 figures that you could possibly get in the box. Who doesn’t like a mystery and a surprise? So, I bought it and got a Toy Bonnie. I think that he is adorable!
We then made our way to Charming Charlie’s where all of their clearance stuff was an additional percentage off! So, why wouldn’t you want to buy some? I bought a feather necklace, a leather and rock bracelet, and a leather tassel keychain. I bought the keychain specifically to hang my Hermoine pop figure, but now I want to buy the other Harry Potter pop figures to hang with her.
I also bought my first poof! I love how cute and poofy it is!
We then made our way to Home Goods. And I found a Paris mason jar. It is big and perfect for keeping…something in. I don’t know what yet, but I am sure that I will find something to put into it.
Finally, we made our way to Walmart where I purchased a Fitbit! I bought the Fitbit Alta and couldn’t be happier with my purchase. I like wearing it and seeing how many steps I take and how many calories I have burned. It’s awesome!
And, I also received a Paris tote from my family! Isn’t it cute?
So, yeah. That’s what I did for my birthday. Not super exciting, but I did have a good day! It was nice to spend time with my mom and sister and do some shopping. I hope you all have a good rest of your day!

Fabulous Finds and Fashion-Blue and White
This next weekend is a long weekend for America with Fourth of July on Monday!! So glad we can take a day to celebrate our country and it’s birthday!
I decided to to blue and white and a little red in honor of 4th of July! Haley found this shirt for me at Ross and I figured it was the perfect way to start. First I paired it with navy blue shorts and some simple silver sandals. (sorry the shorts are a little wrinkly. I’m going for the very casual look! :))
Here is a close-up of the design down the front of the shirt. So pretty!
Here I paired it with the classic denim. This could be pants, shorts or a skirt. The same silver sandals and some white earrings finish it off.
Here is to the red, white and blue! How about red jeans with the shirt. I love how this looks! Perfect for the holiday! I’m sure it will be too hot that day to actually wear this, but maybe I can find some red shorts instead. Some blue sandals and silver earrings complete the outfit.
Thanks for coming by today! If you are here in America, be sure to have a safe and wonderful holiday!

Corner News- June 25, 2016
How is your summer so far? Are you crazy busy or crazy lazy? It’s so nice to have some time to just work on projects at a more leisurely pace and still have time to just relax.
I worked on sprucing up a couple of spaces this week, my mantel and my front porch. I added a fabric banner, which I will show you how I made next week, a summer sign and seashells. Love the bright blue and green! Oh, and my flag, of course!
I added more fabric triangles to the front porch and put a new quote on the chalkboard. I also added a few more summery items, like the birdhouse and lantern.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
