My Trip to Casey, Illinois
This weekend I went on a little road trip to a cute town I have been wanting to visit for a while now. I originally hear about the larger than life attractions that are in Casey, Illinois, while watching the news. From that moment on I knew that there would be a road trip somewhere in my future. Not only does Casey, Illinois, contain some of the world’s largest stuff, but it is also much a great example of the quaintness found in small towns. You don’t have to worry about busy roads, the shops are unique and vintage, and everyone from that area seems to know each other. The…

Movie Monday: Gentleman’s Agreement (1947)
Today’s Movie Monday film review is about the movie that got my love for all classic films started. Gentleman’s Agreement was a movie I just happen to stumble up one Saturday about four years ago. Since initially watching this movie I have become a huge advocate of all things Old Hollywood! I could not be more grateful for this film and getting the opportunity to see it. A ton of thanks goes to the Turner Classic Movies television network for simply existing because that is how I have explored almost all of the classic films I have watched. Now that I have got that off my chest, let’s get this…

The Happy Camper
A summertime highlight is typically a camping trip, however, I am taking this summer tradition to the next level by including it in my wardrobe! Personally, I think the idea of spending time in the great outdoors and taking in nature is what summer is all about, so naturally I wanted to celebrate this special time of the year with a fun top!
