So I actually meant to post this outfit last Friday, and I had a Pinspired Style outfit to post on Thursday. Well my fiance had sinus surgery Thursday morning and I had forgot to actually make the Pinspired Style post so that I could just press publish from my iPad. Whoops. Then, we ended up staying the night in the hospital. My poor love was in bad pain. :/  He's recovering well and feeling much better than then though.

If you follow me on Instagram, you saw that Momma Goodwillista and I went to Hobby Lobby and picked up some flowers to play around with for the wedding reception decor. Yes, we are using fake flowers for decoration, but real ones for the bouquets. It was cheaper that way, and we will know exactly what the flowers look like. (50% off floral at Hob Lob when we went- SCORE!) So if you were wondering what my wedding colors are, here they are! Shades of coral/peach, ivory, lace, and burlap. :)

Ps. We played around with a few combinations yesterday, and we're not using all of these

Advice on boots needed

Okay people, since I am just plain cheap, I need your advice.

I had the boots in the top left corner for 2 years and the sole fell apart. I got them from rack room shoes for $40.
The ones on the bottom left I have now and soles are complete poop... Like there are literally holes in the heels of them. I got them this time last year but they didn't really get worn until this past fall. I've worn them almost everyday all fall/winter because they go with everythinggggg.

So question is... Do I buy these Steve Madden boots that will cost me $100??

Today I don't have much to say... I had a schoolwork overload Monday and Tuesday, but I didn't let stress get the best of me! I got an 89 (1 point away from an A!) on my first exam of the semester and a 95 on my presentation! I'm very proud of myself, because I didn't worry, I just trusted in God. I have always been a worry wart, but I am learning to trust Him.

Every time I go home and have my mom or sister take my picture, Spencer always tries to be in my picture. So I thought I'd let him and Dutchess take over the blog today.

Meet the Puppies:

Spencer (Bichon Frise) on the left & Dutchess (Toy Poodle) on the right

Is this not the cutest picture ever? Spencer Bear (all dogs should have a middle name) loves to give kisses.

Poor dude, how does he even see? He needs to be groomed so bad, but he's still just so cute!

Dutchess says, "Sissy, my fro is not lookin good today"

I am in LOVE with this dress. I mean that's got to be obvious being that I paid $20 (see my $20 rule) for it!  Actually now that I think of it, I did buy it with Christmas money, so it was kinda free, right? So when I saw this dress, I saw myself wearing it on my honeymoon to a nice dinner... eeeek can't wait for that! Still don't know where we're going yet, but somewhere tropical of course :)

And here's a few of Larry and I's engagement photos! I'm SO happy with the way they turned out. I expected nothing less than our amazing photographer Tate Tullier. He is THE best. For realz.

I'll post a few more for ya'll another day! I didn't want to go TOO photo crazy on ya!
