Happy Monday! Boy has this weekend been busy. Saturday I had a full day of shooting outfits and by the time I got home I was drained and it was so hot which I am so happy about, just glad the rain stopped. ? Later that night the hubby took me out to a late dinner and we had some drinks outside and talked. I missed that fella like crazy and always do especially during the week. Its hard with our schedules being so crazy and he has been working on weekends which is also super hard but I am blessed and I know this won’t be forever. Sunday was hard for me just because it was Fathers day! My daddy past away about 13 years ago and it was the hardest thing to go through especially at such a young age and seeing everything was just heart breaking. I honestly had to turn off all of my social media just because I was just so overwhelmed by everyone’s photos of their dads, I just didn’t want to burst into tears so it was best to put it away. Even though its so hard and there are days where I do break down and cry, I know he is in a better place and my heavenly father watches over me and my siblings and is always there to help us though it. I would never have done it without Jesus. ? I just can’t wait to see him in heaven. ? Even though it was hard Sunday I didn’t stay home all day the hubby and I went to my sister-in-law’s house and we had barbecue an tried to stay inside because of how nice it was, too bad there wasn’t a pool I would of totally jumped in haha. I hope your weekend was amazing and you had the best time with your amazing Dads! I cannot wait to have a little one with my baby daddy and no I am not pregnant yet! ?
Ah! Back to the shoot. I am obsessed with this whole shoot and this whole look. Before I start telling you all about how bomb this dress is be sure to head over to my Instagram page (here) and stay tuned because sometime today I will be doing a giveaway with this local boutique where this dress is from and she is giving away $100 gift card to her store. ? So follow along and see how you can enter and maybe you will be the lucky winner. Also this week and beginning of next I will be posting all about my summer favorite dresses from the same local boutique that I will be doing the giveaway for so check out her site (here). Today we are staring with this cream lace dress. LOVE the color, the lace and how beyond perfect this dress is. The back is just stunning and its just perfect for summer and that special occasion you have going on like a wedding, a fancy party or a hot date. You can also dress it down with a boho look by adding booties instead of heels. I decided to do a dressy look just because I love these heels from gojane.com and they are becoming my summer favorites. The pop of color will be so perfect for simple colored dresses like this one. For accesories I added simple turquoise and gold earrings. These earrings are also from loveharperboutique.com.
Now to the beautiful detailed clutch. This beauty is from hayleyhandbag.com and I received the cutest box from them a few weeks ago which had this baby and a few other amazing pieces. I am obsessed and can’t wait to share the rest with you all. Haleyhandbag.com started doing this thing called a glam box basically they ship you beautiful boutique jewelry that is on trend and fashion forward. There stylists are constantly searching for new items that are unique and fabulous. They want to send you jewelry that you will fall in love with.

? This is how God showed His love among us: He sent his one and only son into the world that we might live through Him. This is LOVE: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent his son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. ? John 4:9-10
