Hello Chicago!

Let me start by saying how nice it is to have summer weather in Chicago. It's no secret that the Midwest is known for their unpredictable weather and as frustrating as it can be at times, I've learned to embrace it.

However, this Spring day had all the right things going for it. With the high at about 80°F, my best friend and I could not have asked for a better day. It was a day filled with catch up and of course SHOPPING. We stopped at State Street and Michigan Avenue, but could not leave the city without taking a trip to Sprinkles Cupcakes. After, shopping the streets of Chicago and enjoying delicious desserts, we were able to come home with some new fashion pieces.

Here are a few pictures from our day.

Hope you all enjoy!

XOXO,

Jules

Three Down, One to Go ~ End of the Year Round Up

As hard as it is to admit it, I have finished my third year of college. *Cue the tears* It seems like just yesterday I was moving into my freshman dorm room. This meant I would be leaving my parents for the first time, meeting my roommate who I had never met before, but overall excitement for the four great years ahead of me. I can honestly say I am not the same girl that walked the halls of Saint Mary's for the first time three years ago. I have grown in more ways than I could have ever hoped. Freshman year, our president gave a speech welcoming all the new students. She talked about how amazing Saint Mary's was (we already knew that) and that by the end of our four years we will leave more educated, more confident and understand the important of a Saint Mary's woman. At the time I did not understand how this small school could promise me some much and after three quick years I now understand. Saint Mary's is a special place. A place with a great educated, great girls that I get to call my friends but better yet, a great place I get to call home.

After leaving Rome a year ago, I could not imagine how my life could get any better than it was there. However, my junior year, I found myself happy, but in a different way than Rome. This year I met so many great girls that I could not be happier to call my friends, I lived and attend one of the beautiful colleges in the country and had opportunities and experiences that I will never forget. Here's a round up of some of my favorite junior year moments.

~Dance Marathon 2016... 12 hours of non-stop dancing for the kids! Did I mention SMC raised the most money in recorded history? Go Belles!~

~Some of the greatest belles you will ever meet~

My junior year was one for the books and I could not imagine spending it with anyone else or anywhere else. Saint Mary's will always be a huge part of my life and I'm excited to see what my last year has in store for me. Once a Belle, Always a Belle.
