Announcement and Updates

 I know many of you follow me on Instagram which is where I post the majority of my updates and pictures as of lately.

I wanted to share with you that over the holidays (two weeks before Thanksgiving to be exact) I started planning my WEDDING! Yes that may sound crazy but we stumbled upon a location and we just fell in love with it and thought why don't we get married here?

With this being said the days and weeks after that day have flown by. I knew time was fast but the days fly by as I am busy working, planning and trying to write some posts sporadically which I hope you can understand. I am a very sporadic blogger and have come to realize this blog is an extension of me and with the years has become part of my life. Once I stop blogging I may be relaxed but I always return as I feel like a part of me (which is all of you) is missing. So why not share the news formally and let you know that I am now a bride to be minus the Bridezilla part I hope.

I will share some images to give you a run down of the whirlwind and fun times and moment I have had once this wedding planning journey started and will post more from here if you enjoyed this.

How to make Iced Coffee Simple

We all have that habit and to most of us it's coffee or tea. One too many trips to the favorite coffee shops can leave our account or fun money on the low side. I love hot coffee but with the current high temperatures I have been hitting up Starbucks for some refreshing and energizing iced coffee.



I am not an expert barista or connoisseur however I like a bite to my coffee for energy but I also love a hint of sweetness as well so here is what I gathered to make my own home made iced coffee for you to enjoy as many times as you wish. I know I have!

Aggie's SIMPLE iced coffee recipe
Ice (crushed or cubed)
Cold coffee (I used leftover coffee  from the coffee pot)
Evaporated Milk
Bailey's Creamer Caramel
1 packet of Splenda (or sugar if preferred)


Lots of ice then almost half of the glass full of cold brew coffee.
Slowly drop in a few ounces of evaporated milk then follow with caramel creamer
Stir then enjoy!

OOTD: Forgotten Mint Romper

The title of this post reveals quite a bit about this romper. I had it for over a year and was gifted to me by my mom one time we went on a shopping trip. I remember thinking how cute it was but never wore it due to the fact that the material is super thin and I felt so insecure about it showing too much.

Well this week as I was decluttering my closet and making piles of things to get rid of and this resurfaced. This time I knew the color was now IN and just had to make it work somehow. I added a denim vest to give me a bit more coverage. Overall I was super comfortable around the pool area and basically felt like I was wearing nothing since it is so light.

As for the hair and face no big deal I was outdoors in the sun and heat all day so it was no fuss style minimal pink lips and some bronzer, straight hair.
