Lilly Pulitzer Spring Line!

Hey Preps!
     I was recently browsing the Lilly Pulitzer website when it came to my attention that their Spring Line was up! It is so so cute and I want practically everything. My favorite pattern of the line would have to be the "Bright Navy Pop Up For The Halibut." It is seriously the cutest thing ever and I have recently been absolutely obsessed with navy and pink. Also, I am hoping to save up to get one of their absolutely precious tanks for Spring and Summer. Those tanks, I am head over heels for. Here are some of my favorites from the Spring line:

Seriously love this line. If any of y'all purchase anything from the it, feel free to post a picture on Instagram and tag me! (@socutesoprep) I would love to see your adorable choices! 

Rings!

Hey Preps!
     I really like basic rings, but I don't have very many. For Christmas, I got a silver, oval, monogrammed ring. I couldn't wear it for a while because it was too big, and I had to get a ring guard, so it hadn't been in very many pictures on my Instagram. I have been wearing it very often and I like it a lot. I really like monograms and my ring is a perfect touch to my favorite outfits. I think that any preppy girl who really likes monograms should have a monogrammed ring. They are super cute and very stylish. I like to wear it a lot. I also have a ring that used to be my mom's when she was a little older than me. It is gold with a blue sapphire in the center with two mini diamonds on each side of it. I like it a lot and it is very pretty. Those are the only rings I have and I like them a lot. I don't wear rings very much, so I don't need very many, but I am thinking about getting a new one. Here are some of the rings I like. Enjoy!

Bright Bands!

Hey Preps!
     If you don't follow me on Instagram, you totally should. I post more frequently on Instagram than I post on here. Plus, you can see some super cute pics, rather than reading! Am I right?! If you want to follow me it is @socutesoprep. Anyways, if you follow me on Instagram you would already know my big news. But here goes, I am a brand rep for Bright Bands!! Yay! So, you may be wondering what this company is, or you could be thinking "Oh my gosh! I love my Bright Bands! I love their company, too! Wow!" Bright Bands is a wristband company that is all about faith and believing in the Lord. Obviously if you don't believe in Jesus, I am not trying to persuade you, but that is what Bright Bands is all about. That is also a big reason why I asked to be a brand rep. They believe that their wristbands are supposed to be a reminder that Jesus is always there for you, no matter what. When you look down at your Bright Band it should remind you of that. I think that the idea of Bright Bands is great and that you should always remember to "Live Bright." Another great thing is that these bands are super cute. You can choose a "Highlighter, Reversible or Generic" band. A highlighter band is a bright, neon color that is plain on one side and on the other side it has a word or saying that has to do with faith. The choices are: "Love God, Love Others, W.W.J.D (What would Jesus do) or Faith." Those ones are super bright and really cool looking. A reversible band is pretty self-explanatory, but I will still explain. A reversible band is kind of a mix between the highlighter and generic bands. On one side is a cute and unique pattern, and on the other side there is a saying. Some of the sayings are "Peace Love Joy, Faith Hope Love, Blessed, Jesus Saves, Pray and others too." I have the Peace Love Joy and the Pray bracelets. I like to wear the side that says Pray on the inside, and the side with Peace Love Joy on the outside. Next, the generic bands. The generic bands are just unique patterns that are the same on the inside and the outside so it doesn't matter which way you flip them. I like those, but you kind of lose the idea of a faith-based company. Then again, I like them all. So, it doesn't really matter what one you choose because they are all so great.

My Everyday Jewelry!

Hey Preps!
     I have been really hooked on a couple of my jewelry pieces. I have started to wear them mostly everyday and I like them a lot. Here is my everyday jewelry:

1. My watch- I wear my watch everyday and it is really cute. It is small, gold and grey. I got it at Francesca's a while back and I have loved it ever since. I believe it was eighteen dollars, which is a pretty decent price for a watch. Every time I wear it, I get so many compliments. I love my watch so so much.

 2. My gold Alex and Ani- Along with my watch, I like to wear my gold, Path of Life Alex and Ani bracelet. They go very well together, and they look great. I actually received my Alex and Ani as a gift from my friend, and it came at a great time. I didn't have a gold bracelet to wear with my watch and I was looking for a nice one. My friend gave it to me and I was so happy. I've worn it most days ever since.

3. My Lokai- It depends on what I am wearing, but I always wear a Lokai. Whether it is my pink, clear or red, I always like to wear them with my arm candy. I have done a blog post about them before, so I won't go into too much detail, but Lokai's bracelets are based on a great idea. If you want to learn more, check out my older blog post about them or check out their website.

4. My 2 Bright Bands- The last addition to my arm candy stack would be my Bright Bands. I am going to be doing a blog post about these, so I won't go into a lot of detail. But, if you didn't know already, I am actually a Bright Bands Brand Rep. They have great wristbands that you have probably seen on my Instagram (follow me! @socutesoprep). They have a great message about faith, and if you want more information on the Bright Bands, check out my post that should be up soon. Also, if you want 10% off of your order, enter my coupon code "socutesoprep" at checkout.

5. My Kate Spade earrings- Everyday I wear my Kate Spade Bow Earrings. They are so so adorable and I love them so so much. They are little, gold, bow studs. I get lots of compliments on them and I think they are super duper cute. I have been on a big, gold kick lately, where I wear a lot of gold jewelry and these have been my go to earrings.

6. My Kendra Scott necklace- I haven't had this long enough to necessarily say "everyday wear," but I've worn it everyday since I've had it. I have been loving my Mabel Gold in Ivory Pearl Kendra necklace. I like it a lot and I have gotten a lot of compliments on it, and I think it is seriously the cutest thing ever. It goes with practically every outfit and it looks great with each of them. I love this necklace.

Kendra Scott Necklaces!

Hey Preps!
     I just received the Kendra Scott necklace I ordered! You probably saw it on my Instagram (@socutesoprep) because I posted a picture of it the day it came! I love it so so much. I got the Mabel Gold Necklace in Ivory Pearl and it is absolutely beautiful. I think it is the perfect chain length and stone size. Ever since I got it, I have worn it every day. I think it is so cute and goes with every single thing.

     I really like Kendra Scott's necklaces. They go with practically anything and are great for any occasion. They have a whole separate page for designing your bridesmaid's necklaces and they have what is called the "Color Bar." It is wear you can pick a style of a necklace, the hardware and the color of the stone. I think it is the cutest idea and I like it a lot. So, if you wanted a dainty, silver necklace to match a coral dress, you could pick a simple necklace, with silver hardware and a coral stone! It works for each type of jewelry they have, rings, necklaces, bracelets and of course their earrings!

     I definitely recommend Kendra Scott. They have great jewelry and they pack their packages in such a cute way! I opened up my little box, and there was a piece of teal colored tissue paper gently packed in with a little pamphlet about their upcoming Spring 2016 line. They also had a little folder with all of the receipts and return information in it. Then, there was a little clump of bubble wrap and rolled up in it was the necklace. It was on one of those cards that necklaces are usually hooked to when you buy them, but it was inside a little jewelry pouch. I thought it was the cutest packaging ever and it made me so happy. I really like Kendra Scott.

Preppy Essentials!

Hey Preps!
     I thought it would be nice if I blogged about some preppy essentials! This is a blog post I have been wanting to do, so I slowly made my list and now I am going to share it with you! Here are some items I think are definitely essential for preps.

1. Pearls- I think that pearls are definitely a must-have. Whether it's a necklace or earrings or even a pearl bracelet, pearls are definitely an essential. When I think about preppy jewelry, the first thing that pops into my mind is a pearl necklace. They go with anything and can easily dress up any look.

2. Something Lilly- Lilly Pulitzer is nearly the definition of prep. If it is a pair of shorts, leggings, a skirt or even a dress- Lilly is so preppy. I think that every prep should have at least one thing that is Lilly Pulitzer. It doesn't even need to be clothing. I have Lilly headphones, a phone case, a stationary set and a pair of shorts. Lilly is a bit pricey but they always have their "After-party sale" which is a great way to get some cute Lilly at a reasonable price.

3. Shep Shirt- Every prepster needs one of these. Mine is navy with a dot stripe pattern on the back. I absolutely adore it and it looks super cute. I definitely think that a shep shirt is an essential.

Vineyard Vines

4. Monograms- Every preppy girl just has to own at least one thing that is monogrammed. I love monograms so much and I have so many monogrammed things, I have lost count! The most recent monogrammed item I have gotten is my new monogrammed ring. I got it for Christmas and the next thing I want is a monogrammed cross body purse that turns into a clutch. They are super cute and I want one of my own. Anyways- monograms are so cute and preppy. I think they are one of my favorite preppy essentials.

5.  Jack Rogers- Seriously such cute sandals. I love mine so much and I practically live in them in the Summer and Spring. They look so cute with any outfit. Some people say that they are uncomfortable, but once you break them in they fit perfectly. These are definitely a must.

6. Preppy Tees- My preppy tee collection is growing and growing. I have IvoryElla, Simply Southern, Jadelynn Brooke and Frocket. I am hoping for Lily Grace, Lauren James and Southern Girl Prep! Preppy tees are great for any lazy preppy days.
