It's Been Real

My babies, I hate to say this but my time here at Bows & Bliss has come to an end. It has been a fabulous two years but all good things must come to an end. I am not done blogging, I have actually been working on my new blog and am thrilled for you all to see it!

Stick with me through this transition because I have so many new and exciting things in the works.

My new blog is called Creme de la Claire.

Thank you everyone for so faithfully following Bows & Bliss! This blog will forever be my day1<3

Fifty Shades of Anticipation

Y'all... So I started the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy in hopes of getting my interest in reading renewed. And holy shit was it ever. These books are out of this world. Opposed to popular belief, they are not all about kinky sex (which I probably wouldn't even mind). They have a killer story line to go with the kinky sex. I have not been able to put them down!

As everyone who doesn't live under a rock already knows, the trailer for the movie, due to release on Valentines Day 2015, came out this morning. I must say Christian Grey is played by one serious panty dropper, Jamie Dornan. I would go see the movie solely to see him go shirtless. But you guys be the judge of that... check out the trailer and let me hear your thoughts!

Let Me Hear You Say "Hey Mrs. Carter"

I reached the biggest milestone in every woman's life last night. I saw Beyonce live for the very first time. I cried, I screamed, I sang, I crumped, and I cried some more. It was literally everything I could have ever hoped for. She was even more beautiful in person. The rest of my life will pale in comparison to the On the Run Tour. We went to the one in her hometown of Houston, go big or go home. It was absolutely unreal.

Here are a few pics from the perfection

Kat, Kyle, myself, and Caroline before the concert

Our faces whenever the Queen came out.

FLAWLESS.

The face of sheer happiness.

I am probably the luckiest person alive right now. I just got back from New York, I saw my sheer reason for life on stage before me, and soon I will moving to college and attending the Justin Timberlake concert. #blessed

NYC*

I had the absolute best time in New York! I cannot begin to describe the sheer opulence of the trip. Here are few of the highlights of my "Big Apple" stay. 

I cannot wait to go again! Fahhhhbulous trip with even more fabulous people.

Over Packed & Over Excited

Bright and early tomorrow morning we head off to the big apple! I spent all day pampering and packing, or shall I say over packing? I will try to post a picture every day of my outfits and let you guys know what I'm up to! Can't wait to fill everyone in!! Much love

PS my plane ride read is Fifty Shades Darker which is the second book in the scandalous series. I'd HIGHLY recommend it.

I'm in a New York State of Mind

Having finished senior year and seeing college approaching in my horizons, it was definitely time to squeeze in a trip. Between babysitting (which I do constantly) and my college preparations I felt like I have had no time for myself these past few weeks. But soon enough I will be on my way to New York! This is my first trip to the "Big Apple" and I could not be any more excited. Hannah and Kyle are coming along for the journey. I cannot wait to share my experiences with you guys (as well as my outfits... duh).

So to mentally prepare myself for the extravagance that is New York I have been in training...

 

• obviously watching plenty of Netflix series revolving around New York (ie Gossip Girl and Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23)
• side note: Don't Trust the B----- was Kyle's Netflix discovery of epic proportions. This show is purrrfect. I would highly reccomend it to anyone who is looking to binge watch something. **disclaimer** there are only two seasons so prepare yourself for the trauma of finishing it... #bringbacktheB

• I have been accumulating my wardrobe. I need to be on my fashion A game for this trip. 

• Santa Claus brought me this wonderful guide to NYC called "Fashion Insider's Guide: New York". It has so many great tips and tricks on where to eat and shop, uber helpful. 

If ANYONE has any tips for my trip feel free to shoot me and email! I love to hear from you guys! Can't wait to update you all on the sheer fabulosity of my trip. Ta ta for now.

Memorial Day Obessions 5/26/14

Today I am extra blessed because I have my brother, First Class Airmen Evan Plauche, in from Japan. He came and surprised me for my graduation, it was such a special moment for my family. Now he is getting to stay in town for a while before he has to go back across the world and we are enjoying every moment of his visit. It is especially wonderful considering today is Memorial Day.

Here are few of my American themed favorites

• Twist on an American Flag cake

• Adorable American cookies  

•  This gorgeous patriotic table scape 

• Wendy's American outfit 

Be sure to tell those men and women serving and who have served our country thank you. They have given all of us so much more than we could ever repay.

Happy Memorial Day!

xoxo
