The Pageant Wave

The Pageant Wave

Hi friends!

I had a pretty busy weekend and some catching up to do Monday and Tuesday (If you count binge watching Revenge "catching up" :)).  Although these last few days were busy, they were so fun!  Remember the bachelorette weekend two weeks ago?  This weekend I got to hang with all of the same fabulous ladies for her Bridal Shower, plus my roommate (who is also a bridesmaid) who just got home from Spain!




 One of my sorority sisters (who also happens to be my little!) came into town for the shower and stayed with me for the weekend.  At school its so easy to meet up with people but being all over the state and country for summer, its extra special to get to see them.  After the shower we headed over to my neighbors grad party an partied with their friends and fam the rest of the night.

And who watched the Miss USA pageant on Sunday?! 

 I follow about half of the girls on insta and have been keeping up with the Miss USA snapchat for the week of the prelims so I was pretty excited to see the final rounds!  Going into the night, my mom and I made lists of our favorites before the top 15 were reveled.  I really liked Alabama and Florida going into the show, they seemed like they had such fun personalities from the videos they posted!  Oh and of course VA :)

I also loved the clip about teaching the dads the pageant wave:   

~shoulder, shoulder, wrist, wrist, touch your pearls, kiss-kiss~

I am so happy though for our new Miss USA, DeShauna Barber, and how she really embodies the modern day woman.  It is truly amazing that she can work for the Army as well as work it on stage in the pageant.  Also can we just talk about her interview question answer?   The dramatic pause and Beyonce look sold it.  I'm so excited to see how she performs as Miss USA and how well she places in the Miss Universe competition!  

I hope everyone is enjoying the warm and sunny days this week so far!  I have some fun outfits coming up this week so be sure to stop back by!  

Xoxo, Al
