Monthly Goals: September

August was a bit of a crazy month for me and I completely fell behind on blogging (including posting my monthly goals). But, I'm back in full force, ready to tackle the month of September! First off though, can you believe it's September already!? 2012 is simply FLYING by and before you know it, it'll be 2013. What an insane thought! Well here are my goals for September. There are quite a few.

Advice Needed!

About a year ago (almost to the date), my dad and I decided that it was time for me to completely refurnish my room. We got rid of pretty much everything in my room except for one small dresser. Once everything was moved out of the room, we headed to IKEA and had a field day there. We came back with a van containing a small bookshelf, desk, chair, and bedframe. The idea behind all of this new furniture was that in about a year, I will be graduating from college and will be moving into my own place. Therefore, all this furniture needed to be portable and practical.

This where I could use a bit of advice! For the past year, I haven't had much room for storage. During the purging process, we threw out my huge dresser and I've been keeping my clothing in a spare room. But, we're beginning to use that room as a guest room and I have to move everything back into my room!

My question is: What are some great storage methods for clothing, purses, bedding, accessories, nail polish, and books? Keep in mind, my closet is jam packed with clothing and old college notebooks!

I would love to hear what you guys have in mind! Thank you for all of your help. MUCH appreciated!

Oh My, Lilly!

It's that time of year again where I hunt for my next agenda. Planners are so imperative for me. Y'all might think that it's crazy that this one tiny book is pretty much my lifeline. Call me crazy, but that's just how I keep myself organized and on-top of things. My secret in life!

What makes the perfect agenda? Plenty of space, tabs, monthly calendars, and weekly calendars. Whenever I get a new agenda, I go through it and color code things as well as put in important dates like birthdays!

This year, I decided to go with the Lilly Pulitzer agenda. Girls, let me tell you. I'm drooling over this thing! I had preordered it a month ago and have been *patiently* waiting for it. Finally, I arrived home from Beach Week and there the package was, just BEGGING me to rip it open. I immediately broke that box and have been oo-ing and aah-ing every page. The prints are GORGEOUS. I absolutely can't wait to start using this planner!

Look at this beauty!

THERE.ARE.STICKERS.

Preach girl, preach!

Do you girls have your yearly agendas yet?
