Bahamas Cruise Recap!

I am soooo excited to tell you all about my first cruise EVER that I've just returned from!  We took the Carnival Elation out of Jacksonville, FL for a 4 day trip. So on the first day we were at sea, day two was in Freeport, day three was in Nassau, and day for was a full day at sea!  I was hesitant at first, but I wound up having an amazing time! I would definitely want to take another cruise sometime and absolutely will be going back to visit the Bahamas!  I plan on making another post or two to give you guys my first timer cruise tips and maybe some outfit ideas; but for now, here are a few of my favorite photos from the trip!

First let me start by apologizing for my absence.  As I'm sure many of you know, summer is a busy time and busy means less blogging!  But I've got a few awesome post ideas in the works so at least we have that to look forward to!

Anyway, I have been super addicted to Instagram lately.  Not that I wasn't before, but I've been particularly drawn to endlessly scrolling through my feed and also entering an excessive amount of loop giveaways (I've been feeling lucky lately!)  So in light of this, I decided to put together a little love for my Insta-favorites!  Basically, I grabbed a bunch of my favorite, recently liked posts and I'm gonna tell you why I love them!

I'm a sucker for a positive message and a killer palm print! 

Can you say, hair goals?! Love this style and she is looking radiant!

It's been decided that I need everything in this photo.  Because I am indeed a tropical gangster. 

Every mermaid needs a shell bag!! I'm obsessed with these.  So much that I even tracked down where to buy them! Neeeeeeddd.

Came across this profile when I was doing a loop giveaway (lol guilty) and they have the cutest kids clothes! Glad I'm documenting it here so when I have kids they will be dressed like this little one! Rock n' Roll!

That moment when you find yourself accidentally liking every picture on someone's IG.  Oops!  Sorry Show Me Your Mumu, I can't help it! I'm just a little obsessed with that pink and green two piece!

I think this one speaks for itself.  Preach.  

Freaked out over "Nice Tail," freaking out even more over this Lilly Pulitzer 5x5! And anything mermaid related, honestly.

I am dreaming of this bathroom in my house one day!  Especially the mat!  Thank you, I do look gorgeous today! ;)

Macrame has always fascinated me, and seeing this action shot makes me want to learn how to do it myself!  I also really want a wall hanging for my room. 

Love this print! It would look awesome in my room. Contemplating purchase.

This photo makes me both happy and sad.  Happy to see that people are caring enough to help clean up our coastlines!  Sad that this much debris is floating around out there.  Still a pretty cool pic!

XO, Briana

Pinspiration: Escape

Lately I've been inspired by fellow bloggers who sometimes post a series of pins that caught their eye or inspired them in some way.  Since I discovered this "pinspiration" posting, I've been wanting to do a few myself.  I just love the random order of it all, how they don't necessarily go together in the traditional sense but somehow still make sense.  So here is my first, of many, pinspiration posts.  I called this one "Escape."
