2021 for Juliana Grace!

 What a year it has been. I truly can't even put into words what this year has meant. There has been some sadness, disappointments, and grief.. but there has also been a lot of growth, accomplishment, and joy. I love looking back at what the last year has brought and I can't wait for what 2022 will hold!

Let's get into this.

Raspberry Lemonade | Lilly Pulitzer Table Scape

 Happy Monday everyone! I thought it would only be appropriate to share a fun lemonade recipe today because it is Munchie Monday! For those of you that don't know, I have started sharing 5 different things on my Instagram stories each day and on Monday I share 5 yummy foods, restaurants, or recipes. 

Not only is this recipe delicious, but it is so easy to make as well. You could whip this up in only a few minutes before having some friends over and sit on the porch and enjoy. I always think lemonade tastes better outside in the sunshine.

1 Cardigan, 3 Ways | Lilly Pulitzer Kienna Cardigan

 Hello again friends! Two blog posts in one day? Wild. I shared on my Instagram today a new Reel and Post about three different ways I styled this Kienna Cardigan from Lilly Pulitzer. I thought I would gather everything in this one blog post for you as well to make it easier.

Comment and tell me which look is your favorite? I think I like the 3rd. Something about the distressed hem jeans and sunnies is selling me on this one. I do think the 2nd one gives Blair Waldorf vibes though so there's that. Oh and the purse in look number 1 is everything!! Okay I can't decide, you pick.

The Best White Graduation Dresses

 Hey y'all! I am officially a COLLEGE GRADUATE!!! What?!?! I walk across the stage tomorrow morning and I can't wait. Your gal is about to be a real adult now, ha. 

I absolutely loved finding the perfect white graduation dress for my photos and graduation and couldn't help but give some of y'all great ideas as well. These would also be beautiful for bridal showers and rehearsal dinners for brides! These white dresses range in price point, but there is truly something for everyone.

I Designed an Earring Collection!

 I can't believe it is finally time to share the news with y'all! I have partnered with my favorite small shop, Coras Den, to design my own collection of earrings. You can shop the collection HERE! My sister helped bring my designs to life. Coras Den made them into gorgeous pieces that I think you will love to wear. I couldn't be more thankful for them both, helping me make this dream a reality.

I thought it would be fun to make a pair of earrings that encompasses every part of my blog and life: Faith, Food, Fashion, and Fun.

2020 for Juliana Grace!

 I have been writing these posts for years now, and I can truly say this one is the hardest to write. 2020 has been a hard year for so many. I know so many people had it worse than I did and I am thankful that through this year I have been healthy and safe. 

This year I lost a job I loved, gained weight, and missed out on exciting plans I had scheduled. I refuse however to focus on the negative, and am instead excited to recap the joy this strange year has brought me. I do hope each of you know though that you aren't alone and I am always available to talk. DM me on Instagram, comment on this blog post, or email me (jgraceblog@gmail.com) with any way I can pray for you or support you.

Now... let's get into my 2020!

Spontaneous Miscellaneous

 Happy Wednesday friends! I am so excited to share some of my favorite recent finds with y'all. I am sharing some awesome Amazon finds, recent favorite shows, etc... 

I first wanted to share a small life update. This semester I started my student teaching and it has been so wonderful so far. I love my supervising teacher and the students we work with. 

About two weeks ago, I was laid off from my job teaching English online to Chinese students. The Chinese government now requires anyone who teaches English for a Chinese company to hold a bachelors degree. Since I am still a semester away from graduating, I was cut. I was gutted and couldn't believe it. I also experienced a lot of stress and anxiety because it threw off my plans for the future.

I am very thankful however, that I have been able to find a job as a substitute teacher in the county I intern in. God is so faithful and has better plans than I do, so even though I am taking a large pay cut, I know He is so good. 

I know this time is very uncertain and stressful for a lot of people so I just want to encourage you to bring your anxieties to God. He is not shocked by what is going on and can provide comfort and peace during very unpeaceful times.

Now... Let's dive right in to some recent favorites!

Spontaneous Miscellaneous

Happy Monday! Although this time is so weird and there are so many hurting and sick, there are also so many doing good. This time of staying home can really bring out the best in people and families. I have never had so many favorite things to share with you. 

Enjoy this positive post!

Two Spring Outfits & Favorite Statement Jewelry Pieces

Happy Monday y'all. I hope you had a great Easter last Sunday and a safe time at home this week. I thought I would share two Easter outfits I posted on my Instagram because I am in love with both looks.

Both of these outfits can be worn all through Spring and Summer. I loved getting dressed up to go nowhere, ha. I am also going to share some of my favorite jewelry shops for good statement pieces that will bring in all the compliments.

Caloosa Waterwear | Discount Code

Hi there everyone! I hope you are all doing well today and found some good ideas from my quarantine to do list that I posted on my blog yesterday. What are you planning to do while stuck at home during this time?

I have had such a nice day today and may even be vlogging my day to post on YouTube. I haven't posted on YouTube in a hot minute and thought that it would be something to teach myself again.

15 Things to do in Quarantine!

Happy Thursday everyone! I hope you are all safe and healthy during this weird time with the Coronavirus spreading like crazy. It is so crucial that we all stay home right now because symptoms sometimes don't show for up to 14 days.

I know some people are not used to being home for such an extended period of time so I thought it would be fun if I compiled a list of things to do while at home. I hope you get some ideas and have some fun during this time.

Lilly Pulitzer Picnic + Recipes & Tips

Happy Tuesday everyone. Is anyone else gearing up for part 2 of the Bachelor finale tonight? I am always so ready to be done with these people by the end, but also kind of sad it won't be on the following week. You know what I mean?

Today we are talking picnics, which is basically a favorite pass-time for me. I could pack a picnic and enjoy it just about anywhere. On this occasion, I enjoyed it right in my backyard, ha! Tomorrow, I am having myself a picnic by the lake and then having another one on the beach Friday with some friends. 

How to Get Lilly Pulitzer for Less

Happy Monday everyone! I am so excited to for today's blog post because there is truly nothing I love wearing more than Lilly Pulitzer. The bright colors and classic styles give me such confidence and make me so happy. Living in Florida, I have ample opportunity to wear their tropical styles. 

The only downside to this beautiful, resort wear brand is... the price. Ugh. Who has $200 dollars to spend on one top? No worries y'all!! Today's blog post is all about how to get Lilly Pulitzer for less money. Over the last year, I have found several different ways to score Lilly at a discounted price and I can't wait to share with you.

Happy Friday everyone! I am so happy to be back on the blog with a Spontaneous Miscellaneous post!

It has been a little while since we talked about what we've been loving lately so let's catch up.

Bright & Preppy Fall Decor

Happy Wedneday y'all! That 6 a.m. alarm came way to quickly and I am moving in slow motion today. I could have slept for another 6 hours, ha! 

I really can't believe that it is Fall y'all. I went to the beach a few days ago and am sweating in my sleeveless sundress so I am not feeling the Fall feels, ha! I did try to get in the spirit a little bit last week with some fun DIY pumpkins and thought I would share them with y'all.

Lilly Pulitzer Haul
