Snickerdoodle Granola Bars

I whipped up a bunch of these snickerdoodle cookie granola bars a couple of weeks ago and they were delicious! I ate one for lunch everyday for two weeks. They really do taste like snickerdoodle cookies, they are relatively healthy, and they require about 15 minutes and no baking. Also, they are gluten-free and vegan. Wow!

Ingredients
 
 

Putting the mix into the fridge
 
Ready!
 
The recipe is pretty self explanatory, and I did choose not to drizzle white chocolate on top. These snickerdoodle granola bars are easy to make and perfect for a delicious snack!

Bikini Bonanza

This morning I was cruising around Sears at our local mall when I happened upon the most amazing thing ever- racks and racks of adorable bikinis on CLEARANCE! However, the best part was that each bikini piece was... drum roll please... only $2.99 each! That is such a bargain! I couldn't resist this unbelievable end-of-season sale, so I picked up three complete bikinis for a total of $18.

This unique bathing suit has colorful rhinestones on the top and stripes on the bottom. I love it!


I love the bead work on this bikini top! It's so adorable.

Finally, I purchased this pink and orange bikini. It's kind of hard to tell in the picture, but it has lace detailing that form zebra stripes.

That's it for today! Check out this link to see all the bikinis at Sears.com!

Scarf Organization

My favorite accessories for fall and winter are fashion scarves! They are cozy, cute, and can complete so many different outfits. I have always stored my scarves on the inside of my closet door, and lately that area had been a disaster zone. So, of course I decided it was time for some new organization!

Before
 
I stopped by Bed, Bath, and Beyond and picked up this super cute scarf organizer in the shape of a purse!

After using the organizer, storing away thick winter scarves, and rearranging my belts, my closet door looks so much better!

While we're on the subject of scarves, here are two cute new ones that I picked up at Charlotte Russe when they were on sale for only $5! What a bargain!

Colored Denim- 5 Days, 5 Ways

Today I'm introducing a new series on my blog- 5 days, 5 ways! Every post in this series will feature a trendy wardrobe staple that I have styled in five different ways. I love taking pieces out of my closet and seeing how many outfits I can create, and this also helps me make the best out of the clothes I have.

I'm going to spotlight colored denim today, which is a big trend for the upcoming fall season. The pants I am wearing are a cobalt blue purchased from Kohl's.

First off, I paired my blue pants with a gray cardigan, a white lace tank top, and simple black flats.

Of course, I had to use my versatile chambray shirt! I also wore a leather beaded necklace and leopard flats for a pop of pattern.

For this outfit, I wore a black tee, a white cami, a heart necklace (which you can't really see), and leopard flats.

With the colored pants, I paired a striped tee with my Sperrys.

Also with the outfit above, I wore a blue hair bow that matches the pants perfectly!

For the final outfit, I wore brown combat boots with a white sweater and colorful scarf.

That concludes the first post in the 5 Days, 5 Ways series! I hope you enjoyed it! Which outfit was your favorite?
