Goodbye, July—Hello, August

We’re officially on the edge of summer. Back-to-school is around the corner, families are squeezing in those final vacations within the next few weeks, and Fall fashion is slowly creeping onto the timeline. Totes are being pulled out to remind us of the upcoming closet swap, and YES you'll start seeing Xmas decor in stores—ready or not.

July flew by, and I was busy every weekend with a few moments of nothing cuz it's been hot. I won’t go into every detail here, but you can always catch my Sip Trip recaps for the full rundown. I’ve been a little off with monthly favorites, but I do plan on sharing a Half-Yearly Faves post soon! Even though a few ideas are still hanging out in my drafts folder, I’m proud of the consistency I’ve maintained—between Nail Files, First of the Month check-ins, and Sip Trip Style recaps. The little wins count, right? 😄

If you’ve been feeling creatively stuck, here’s my honest advice: just DO. That’s my personal theme for August. I’ve spent way too much time consuming everyone else’s content while sitting on a tote full of quirky bags and a whole Nsale haul that deserves the spotlight. Oh—and if you’ve caught the hints on my socials, you already know a rebrand is on the way.

Happy August! I hope this month is as good to me as the last six have been. Random Request: I’m officially in the market for a camera upgrade! My default iphone photoshoots need an upgrade. I’m not tech-savvy, so if you’ve got beginner-friendly recommendations, drop them in the comments.
