Coastal Bathroom Refresh For Under $350 🌊 🌾

      I'm excited to share all about one of the most impactful room makeover projects in our first house with you today. The smallest room in the house ended up having the biggest impact from a simple room refresh, and I honestly can’t believe what a difference it's made! And even better, we were able to create this type of transformation while sticking to a tight budget.

What to Wear to Megan Moroney's Cloud 9 Tour ☁️

      I'm excited to soon attend Megan Moroney's first-ever arena tour: The Cloud 9 Tour! Megan is one of my favorite country artists- I love everything about her whole vibe, style and aesthetic. She also writes amazing song lyrics! I've been a fan of Megan since first she came on the country music scene a few years ago. Her first hit single "Tennessee Orange" started gaining popularity during my first year working in country radio, and I've loved following the rise of her career ever since. Even though I don't work in country radio anymore, I've stayed a fan of Megan. 

     I'll be attending one of the early Cloud 9 tour dates next month, and I'm so excited. I love putting together cute concert outfits, but especially so when the artist has great style themselves, and that's definitely the case for Megan. I wanted to share some outfit inspiration to anyone else attending Megan Moroney's Cloud 9 tour. I wrote a similar blog post last year with outfit inspiration for her Am I Okay? Tour that was so much fun to put together, so I wanted to repeat for this year!
