The Cutest Dance Hall

I was at the cutest (seriously) dance hall last night. Diamond Rio played in a small, intimate setting. It wasn’t packed and you could actually dance on the dance floor. So much fun! I’d def come back here again. 

Oh, and on a vain and funny note, I was told last night that if there was a college class on head tilts when posing in pictures, I’d be the professor. 😂

As for my outfit, I went super simple. If you’re from Texas, you know that every Spring Mexico and South America do an agricultural burning and it causes hazy, humid, gross weather. Yes, it comes all the way up to Texas. So I went for a simple white dress, boots, and a statement necklace. 

Dress: Forever 21 $15

Isn’t Magenta the Prettiest Color? 💕

Spent Saturday night with my sweet friend, Janelle. 

Isn’t it amazing when you sit back and think about the fact that everything God put on this Earth is for our enjoyment. Even people. I love, love, love my friends. And thank you, Lord, for all your work. I’m a huge fan. 

Dress: The Impeccable Pig $68

Arriba!

   
 

I had so much fun last night! It’s the first time I’ve had a chance (in a while) to go out on a Saturday when I’m in town. 

I got invited to a ‘Wig Out,’ party, but I just wasn’t feeling that theme at all. So, I threw on this serape dress and headed out the door. 

The weather last night was perfect. Light breeze…mild temperature…humidity not too bad. 

Except for in the restroom! Geez, it was like 95% humidity and 98 degrees. Yuck! 

This dress is less than $16! And I love the cut. It’s flowy, but I don’t mind it. But last night I needed a defined waist, so I threw on a belt from another dress.  

Here’s my outfit details:

Partying Until the Cows Come Home 🐮

  

So what’s the deal with these tank tops, huh? Well…it’s a tradition my friends and I have started. We wear them once every trip for a quick photo. We’re on an initiative to scratch some Texas travel places off of our bucket lists! 

Anyway, traveling with girls can be tricky! Here’s what I’m learning:

  1. Sleeping in isn’t always in the cards. Hotels usually have an 11am checkout and if you want to sleep in and three girls need to get ready…yikes! Since I’m an early riser, I just get up and get ready first.
  2. Don’t forget your pj pants! I brought pj shorts and those girls froze me out! I was laying in bed with a sweatshirt on, in the fetal position, with my knees tucked into the sweater, and my teeth chattering. Never. Ever. Again. Will I forget my pj pants.
  3. Meals. Snacks are needed. I don’t do snacks. I say eff snacks, because I get too full and snacks aren’t satisfying to me. BUT not everyone is like me. So bring snacks so no one gets “hangry.” 
  4. I’ve said it a hundred times and I’ll say it again. Just go with the flow. Life is too short to be getting uptight and cranky on vacation. Whatever happens, happens.
  5. Be extra careful when traveling with girls only. We had a creeper on Friday night and it was extremely uncomfortable and a little unnerving. A really sweet cop helped us get into our hotel safely. 
  6. Don’t eat festival food! I’m so mad at myself right now! Why did I do that? Hopefully, my cold pressed juice is cleansing me. 
  7. Get on the ball with downloading more Spotify jams! Enough said. 
  8. You don’t have to buy everything that you see and like…but I do!
  9. Always plan your next trip while driving home on your current trip. It keeps the momentum going.
  10. Keep trying to have fun while my heart is mending. ❤️

Spring 🌸

  

It’s hard for me to dress for spring, because I want to just jump right into summer. I can’t help myself! I love, love, love summer. Anyway, I’m trying to do pastels and light, muted colors, but one thing that I’m not holding back in is white pants. I wear white pants all year practically. Today’s look was so comfortable.
