j. crew april style guide favorites

better late than never! the april style guide debuted while i was on the cruise and i have been busy getting back into my normal routine since i have been back in knoxville so this is the first chance i have had to post my favorites! this may be one of my favorite new arrivals release yet - this collection is bright, colorful, light, preppy and southern! everything i love and want in my wardrobe! i have already ordered the seersucker dress and will be counting down the days until i can wear it after easter (that's my rule). the weather needs to warm up ASAP so i can break out the spring wardrobe!

spring break was wonderful but such a tease. it has been quite tiring and overwhelming getting back into my school routine and looking ahead at what all is going on! it is hard to believe that there are only five weeks plus exams left of this semester but i must say i won't be sad to see it over and be back in middle tennessee for the summer! this week i am working on schoolwork, trying to organize my life and working off a few of those cruise pounds (but missing those pillow chocolates and desserts). tonight i am going to aubrey's with my bestie, kaitlin, so we can rehash our spring breaks! i always love our girl dates! they are the best way to vent and get a good meal out too!

on another note, my sorority, alpha chi omega, participates annually in Relay for Life here at UT. i am posting the link below to donate to our team so that we can raise money to benefit the American Cancer Society. any amount is much appreciated and every dollar raised brings us one step closer to a world with less cancer and more birthdays and where no more lives are lost to the disease!
