Weekly Roundup Numero Uno

Happy Memorial Day!

I hope you have all had a fun & relaxing long weekend. Even though I had to work on most days (meaning no beach trips for me :( ), I was still able to get lots of stuff done and take a solid mental break from school. Three more weeks 'till freedom!

I've been incredibly busy lately and haven't had much time to blog, but I'm planning on some super cool weekly features that should help keep my work pretty consistent from now on (or at least once school lets out). I've seen tons of bloggers recapping their weeks through photos lately so I thought I'd hop on board. These will be selections of photos from my Instagram with more details about what I was up to, as well as a selection of new photos from my day-to-day. I hope you all enjoy following along!


#BloggerProblems

 I've been trying to play around more with flat lays, both just for fun and for showcasing products for my blog and/or clothes for my work's social media channels. One of the reasons I've been so backed up lately is because I tend to put way too much on my plate (I'm just an overachiever like that), so I'm still trying to decide what I do and don't have time for. Why can't there just be more hours in a day?! {P.S. I am still SO totally stoked for this ban.do planner, and I can't wait for August to roll around so I can use it (although I want summer to last forever). Order yours before it's too late!}

Desert Vibes

We've been getting warmer and warmer weather here in Oregon (finally), and I've totally been feeling some desert-boho vibes along with it. I've been trying out some new styles that have me way too excited for summer, from distressed ombré shorts and chunky booties to fringed tops and turquoise jewelry. Hopefully I'll get a chance to adventure and explore this summer and take part in some fun outdoorsy photo shoots, and maybe even put together a lookbook or style vlog for you all! Also, if you guys haven't signed up for your free month of Rocksbox yet (using my code LARAVLWXOXO), you seriously need to -- I loved everything in my first set (including this sweet Margaret Elizabeth cuff), and I can't wait to send them back this week to get a new box of fun jewels.

City Drinks

Running straight from class to work three or four days a week can be exhausting, so lately I've been stopping into the CUTEST local coffee shop for an iced brew before every shift. The shop, Tried & True Coffee Co., is located just down the street from my store, so it's a perfect pit stop. Their coffee is perfection, and their shop is PERFECTLY decorated. I'm seriously obsessed with the glass windows and the feel of the hole-in-the-wall shop, and their counters are insanely Instagramable. I'm in love.

Lovin' the Crew

Taking the 45-minute trip down to Eugene to go out with my sister has become somewhat of a regular thing now. Having just recently turned 21 going out to the bars is always a hit, and I never have anyone to go with me here in Corvegas, so it's been fun hanging with her crew in the Eug every week. I'm excited to have them come into town for the B.o.B. concert here on campus next weekend! (I still don't think it's hit me that that's a thing yet).

Funway Finds

As usual, I've found some even more amazing pieces at Runway this week that I am STOKED about. It's so crazy to me seeing some of the things that people give up! My favorite item of the week has for sure been this amazing poncho type thing that is black and white except for some bright neon threads. It is so unique and comfortable, and I can't wait to wear it to the beach or at a music festival this summer! I'm always looking for fun ways to add variety to my wardrobe, and outerwear is one of the best ways to do IMO this since they can be worn with pretty much anything.
