February Instagram Roundup - February Favorites

Well if this post doesn't showcase my procrastination then I don't know what does - oops!  Ah, such is life.  I wanted to start a new series on the blog here - monthly Instagram roundups!  Sound good?  Lemme know what you think.  I want to do this monthly for two reasons:
1) so you can get a recap of everything I'm loving this month and
2) it will be a great thing to look back on to remember my life!

There's quite a few posts here so grab yo' self a snack and get to scrolling!

Instagram Hashtags for Fashion Bloggers + Freebie!

Oh Instagram... sometimes I think back to the simpler days of posting whatever was going on in my life with whatever dull lighting was available and getting excited when my likes turned from names to a number.  Who can relate?

This will change the way you Instagram

One of the biggest bummers about Instagram is that if you have multiple accounts its a pain in the butt!  Log in, log out, log in, log out - awful. 

What's On My iPhone?

I've seen a lot of YouTubers doing what's on my iPhone videos so I decided to try a blogpost!  I want to do a separate post on how I edit my photos, so those apps won't be included here.  Just my main squeezes when it comes to my phone :)

Instagram Round Up

Happy Friday, or Fri-YAY as it is lovingly referred to on Insta :)

I've never done an Instagram Round-Up before but I have been so busy with my new job (would we like a post on that? comments please!) I haven't had a ton of time to blog new material.  So here we go, enjoy!

Head over right now to enter my little giveaway!  I will be picking the winner tomorrow!

National Donut Day was last week so naturally I had to get one.  I had a coupon for $0.99 large iced coffee that I figured I might as well use while I was there.  Then I found out since it was in fact national donut day they were giving a free donut with any drink purchase! So I got a large coffee and a donut for $1.07 (b/c of tax) - boo-yah!

I finally put my Lilly Pulitzer storage bins to use!  Got them at Marshall's a while back.  What is crazy is that this picture ended up getting close to 600 likes!   Very unusual for me (okay who am I kidding I never get even close to that!)  Anyone happen to have any idea why?!

Brian and I went out to dinner to celebrate his first week of work being over!  Now I'm almost done with MY first week and his second :)  Welcome to the real world -__-

Before his first day of work Brian surprised me with the beauty!  How lucky am I to have such an amazing man?!  I have had my eye on this since I got it in my Rocksbox months ago and he went out and found it for me. *heart eyes emoji* all over the place!

Finally all the way back to Memorial Day weekend - loved wearing this flowy white Lilly dress on the beach!  Check out the gorgeous sunset we had here.

Well what did we think?  Follow me on Instagram @sugarspiceandsparkle to see pics like this daily!

Don't forget to Sparkle!

Mint + Navy = Fashion Friday

Happy Friday! For my favorite day of the week I am sporting a pretty casual outfit.  This look is so comfy though and still looks p

ut together.  It's amazing what a nice necklace can do for an outfit!

Top: Victoria's Secret Pink Lace Shoulder Tee in Mint
Skirt: Navy Circle Skirt from Nordstrom Rack
Shoes: Jack Rogers
Necklace and Earrings: Francesca's Collections

Navy is one of my favorite colors because it is so versatile! You can really pair it with almost anything. I especially love to pair it with mint, another one of my favorite colors!
