TWO PIECE SET | SANDALS | EARRINGS | BRACELETS
Happy Monday!
I actually bought this two-piece set last summer but never had the chance to share it! It sold out pretty quickly everywhere. Luckily, I found it at ONE store fully stocked and only $21 dollars. The website is very similar to Shein.com, so I read the reviews on this particular item before linking it! They look positive overall, but I would make sure you check them first on any other products you may want.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend! I shot a ton of photos that are coming to the blog soon, and I had lunch with my family on Sunday! My friends and I also went to the Pelicans/Thunder game in New Orleans yesterday afternoon. We had a blast! If you saw my Instagram stories, we actually sat courtside behind the Thunder. The only basketball team I relatively keep up with is Golden State, so I was slightly confused about who the players were! I got some snaps of Russell Westbrook though, so I did alright! Lol. Also- I think I’m going to do a rundown of my favorite Netflix TV shows in Thursday’s blog post! Let me know if you like this idea in the comments below 🙂

Yall. It was SUCH a Monday today. I had bought huge gold 10k balloons to do a blog post celebrating 10k on Instagram. I was SO excited about them! They arrived later than expected, so I planned to shoot the post this morning to have it ready by tonight. Well, it’s been pretty windy here, and I knew it would make dealing with balloons that much more difficult. Sure enough, the wind won and I lost the number 1 balloon within five minutes of being outside… I was furious since I had already waited a week to do this post, and now it was ruined. I am honestly laughing as I type this because I totally overreacted about the situation. Shocker! I am such a perfectionist, which is a blessing and a curse. Sometimes I just get so upset over the little things and forget to remember the bigger picture! With all of that being said, I am trying to accept the situations I cannot change, SO here’s to 10k and maybe breaking out the balloons again on the next milestone! Hahaha.
To you guys- my readers, my followers, my friends. Thank you for sticking with me through this rollercoaster of a ride the past six months. Although I created my blog in July 2016, I didn’t start doing it consistently until August 2017. I noticed pretty quickly that the more time and effort I put into building my blog and my brand, the more benefits and opportunities arose. NONE of this would have been possible without people like you who constantly encourage me and support Sassy Southern Blonde. This blog has been the ultimate labor of love, and I couldn’t imagine my life without it now. I can’t wait to see how my blog continues to grow because of yall. So thank you from the bottom of my heart! Cheers to the next 10k!
PS: I am obsessed with palm print, and this Buddy Love dress is no exception. All my outfit details are linked! As always, comment with any questions 🙂 *I’m wearing the XS and it fits great!*
Lots of love,
Kels

Wow. Where has the summer gone?! I feel like I just came back home from college in May, and now I am about to move back to Starkville for my senior year. It doesn’t seem right! The time passes too quickly these days, but I cannot wait to see what the upcoming school year has in store for me. Between being the Campus Director for Curtsy at Mississippi State and running Sassy Southern Blonde plus everything else, I know my plate will be overflowing. But for that, I am blessed! The opportunities I have been given make me beyond grateful and excited for my future!
With the end of summer rapidly approaching, I find myself wearing more and more of my favorite summer color, white! (I know, what a shocker that it isn’t pink!) I know Labor Day will be rolling around soon, so I am taking full advantage of the few weeks I have left. I even painted my nails white for the hundredth time in the past few months. What can I say? White nails are my go-to polish! Thankfully, someone amazing invented a color called winter white, so I won’t have to go without it entirely until Spring! My outfit details are linked above, and I am also linking some of my favorite white dresses below! (If any of my links don’t work, feel free to comment and I will give you the info!)
