Merry Christmas!

 Merry Christmas y'all! I hope you are having a great Holiday Season! I am so thankful for everything I received this Christmas and i'm so excited to share with you what I got! 

My big gift this year was a new camera, the Canon EOS Rebel T5. I can't wait to learn all the settings and increase pic quality on gracieinprep! I'm also really excited about my new Kate Spade sunglasses and purse! I totally wasn't expecting them, and I think surprise gifts are the best kind! My sister and I did a photo shoot with our new camera today to test it out. Here are some pictures from it in which i'm wearing some of my new christmas gifts! 
Enjoy!

Classy Christmas Party

Hi everyone! I hope you've had a great Holiday Season so far! I decided to host a Christmas Party this year for all my friends that included a favorites gift exchange and a cookie exchange! We started out the party with mingling as everyone got there, then of course we had a photo shoot in front of the tree, then did the gift exchange, and then the cookie exchange, and finally we played Christmas charades. The party's colors were plaid and gold and the theme was Classy Christmas! 
Enjoy!


I've also just started Gossip Girl on Netflix {xoxo, gossip girl} and I LOVE IT! I added the headband last minute to the look after being inspired by Blair Waldorf and I think it totally made the outfit! 


I made my own invitation for this party so let me know if you want me to do a diy invite post!


I told everyone to bring a gift $10 and under for the gift exchange and this is what I gave! I also got a jcrew jewelry tray from the gift exchange that was so cute! 


Isn't this bag Oh What Fun!

Marley Lilly Lovin

Hi everyone! Sorry I've been gone so long but the holidays are very busy for me! Today I have a Marley Lilly review post for ya'll! I am so thankful to have been chosen for the blogger review program and I'm so excited to share my thoughts about their products! I am a monogram lover so this is definitely the website for me! They have a wide variety of items that are all so cute and are perfect gifts! I received a monogrammed clutch, a monogrammed tassel bracelet, a blanket scarf from black friday sale, and necklace from cyber monday sale! I'm also loving the Monogrammed Scalloped Luxe Cross Body Clutch that they came out with recently! Everything I received was great quality and I was pleasantly surprised just with their reasonable prices! 

The crossbody clutch works great for me and is so easy to pair with outfits!  This This crossbody clutch is simple but classic and matches everything! The tassel bracelet is so cute and I love the fact it has a tassel and a monogram! I have used/worn everything and definitely recommend these items and Marley Lilly

Here are some pictures on how I styled some of the items! Enjoy!

Homecoming ♥

 Hi everyone! Last night I had my homecoming and had a great time! My group ended up going out to eat and coming back to my house instead of actually going to the dance! I wore one of my favorite Lilly Pulitzer dresses and heels with a bow on the back! It was freezing last night (at least freezing in southern standards) so I also wore a pink cardigan and this adorable Charles River Apparel Jacket!
Enjoy!
