What to Wear to: A Beyoncé Concert

Last week I was surprised with last minute tickets to the Beyoncé concert in Raleigh and it was the best night! My fiancé knows how much I love her so he got some tickets the day of the concert and then I decided to get one for my little sister since it was her birthday. I had seen Beyoncé once before about 6 years ago and that night was honestly one of my most favorite nights! I've been a huge fan ever since the Destiny's Child days and each time I see her, I am reminded of how freaking amazing she is. Since her tour just started not too long ago, I wanted to share some tips on what to wear incase any of y'all have plans to see her this summer! 

Latest Favorite Swimsuit Finds (and they're not bikinis!)

I spent the weekend in one of my favorite peaceful islands, Hilton Head. Hilton Head is one of the first vacation spots that TJ and I visited together so it has always been a special place to both of us. I'll get into more weekend details later on but today I wanted to share with y'all two of my latest swimsuit purchases. They happen to both be one-pieces which I've been loving lately. 

Leopard Print & Lace-up Flats

Two things I thought I'd be tired of by now when it comes to style - ruffles and leopard print. I'm definitely not even close to being done with these two trends. In fact, I don't even know if I'd call them trends since they are both pretty classic looking in my opinion. Maybe I'll look back in a year and wonder what I was thinking but for now, I love them! I wore this cropped ruffle sleeve blouse and leopard print A-line skirt yesterday along with some lace-up flats which were under $25 and shockingly comfortable.

Happy long weekend Friday, everyone! I'm pumped for this weekend because I'll also be celebrating one of my best friends bachelorette weekend! We're going to Wrightsville Beach and staying in a really cute oceanfront condo close to everything.  There will be 7 of us and it'll be a weekend filled with fun and sun.  

Now, on to the outfit for today's post... I recently found a clothing company based out of CA that has some serious comfy and chic clothing for great prices.  If you're not already following Triple Thread Oc (@triplethreadoc) on instagram, you should! I tend to forget to buy comfy clothes and end up with a closet full of dresses.  Basic tees are where its at on the weekends and I love the selection at Triple Thread.  Also, the most comfortable wedges ever that I found at Marshall's are now available at Nordstrom Rack for less than $40!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Happy FRIDAY! It is also the first day of Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale, unless you have a Nordstrom credit/debit card, in which case I am sure you have already done some damage.  I've never really realized how great of a sale this is... it's not your typical 'getting close to the end of summer so let's get rid of everything' sale.  These are brand new FALL products that have been marked down until August 4th.  It's the perfect time to start thinking about cooler months ahead and treat yo'self to some fall staples, such as some suede booties or faux fur vest.  I've shared some of my favorites down below.  Check out the sale for yourself at Nordstrom!
