Trip To The Pumpkin Patch!

Happy Tuesday, y'all! I hope y'all are having a great day! 

Today I'm sharing with y'all my first trip ever to my local pumpkin patch! 
About a week ago, me and my friend grabbed some coffee and headed to the pumpkin patch that was surprisingly close to my house! The patch wasn't as full as I thought it would be, but it was totally fine! It was nice to see the different kinds of pumpkins and each friend time and enjoy the wonderful fall weather! We didn't go into the corn maze, but we will next year, for sure! Here are the pictures I took from that day! :)














The pictures look blurry for some reason, I'm sorry, but next time that won't be an issue! 
I hope you enjoyed this post and have a wonderful Tuesday!! :) 

Did you go to a pumpkin patch this year?

My Currently List! Little Life Update!

With this semester being so close to being over (A month and a couple of weeks left!!), my days have been getting busier and busier, but while I wait for my 2 p.m. class, I decided to do this currently list as a little update! So I hope you enjoy this small life update and hope y'all have a wonderful Wednesday!! :) 

These past few weeks (well, overall month!) have been pretty hectic! I have had an enormous amount of homework to do (half way done with it, woohoo!), lots of things to memorize and identify, have had tests back to back as well as a few quizzes, so school has definitely kept me busy! Thus the lack of blog posts, I really want to get back on my blogging game and improve on it, but that will have to be put back for a bit because school comes first! I've been vlogging a lot, though and have been surprisingly been able to edit them and upload them at a decent time, mainly because I take advantage of the breaks I have during classes because when I'm home I'm usually doing homework so not much editing gets done! If you want to keep up with my vlogs and channel in general, the link will be here ! I've also recently made a decision about vlogging and have decided that by at the end of the year I will be posting my vlogs on my recently made vlog channel! I feel like it will be a fresh start and a way to focus on my main channel more! Even though I have been busy with school majority of the time, I still squeeze some social time to hang out with my friends and spend time with my family so seeing them and just enjoying their company makes me less overwhelmed which is always good! So this is a little update on my life right now, so let's get on to the list portion of this post! :) 

Here is what I'm currently...

Watching:  I'm currently watching (and catching up on) Faking It, How To Get Away With Murder, and American Horror Story: Hotel (loving it so far and ready for it to come on tonight!!) 


Reading: I'm currently re-reading the Harry Potter books because I love them and reading them again makes me one happy lady! Although I've been on the hunt for a good book so I may take a break from the Harry Potter books once I find it! Leave me any recommendations and I'll totally check them out! :)

Listening: I'm currently listening to Every Age by Jose Gonzalez and this song is perfect for this time of the year! It's peaceful yet I can get a fall vibe from it and let's face it, Jose has a nice, soothing voice! haha

Eating: I ate a sausage, egg and cheddar sandwich from Starbucks, it was so good! 


Drinking: I got a Iced caramel macchiato from Starbucks! 


Enjoying: The fall weather, the cozy outfits, warm drinks, just everything about Fall really! 

Wanting: I really want to go to a pumpkin patch! I've actually never been to one so it's something I want to scratch off my bucket list! 


Wearing:  Right now I am wearing a black piko shirt, american eagle jeans and my black Steve Madden boots! And as for accessories I'm wearing a necklace that I got at Loft! 

So that's my little list of what I'm currently doing so I hope you enjoyed this mini update! 

So that's all I've been up to and I love being able to just sit down and blog so once the semester gets less hectic, I'll definitely be blogging more! I hope you enjoyed this mini life update! 

What's been keeping you busy right now? 

Happy Wednesday, y'all! :)

I Am Very Busy. 2016 Ban.do Planner First Impression / Review


Happy Wednesday, everyone! :) 

So today I'm doing a review on this planner I got from Altar'd State last weekend! 
I got this planner (it's sadly sold out on the ban.do site , but there's a gold and floral one!) on a Sunday while looking around Altar'd State and when I saw it I had to have, it was too cute not to! (I'm a bit of a planner addict!) It's a light pink planner with rose gold font and elastic band! It's a 17- month planner just like my Lilly Pulitzer Agenda! The size of the agenda is 5.5 in. x 8.5 in. so it's the perfect size for on the go, it fits perfectly in my purse and doesn't take up much space which is great! :D 

So when you open the planner you have a sticker sheet and I must say these are some cute pictures. (The "but first, coffee" mug is my favorite, of course!)

Then after the sticker page, there's a "secret code" page! This reminds me of middle school when we made up the most random codes! haha 

As all planners, this comes with a 2016-2017 yearly pages! I also like that the tabs are colorful and not all the same colors!)

It also has a page for special dates, birthdays, etc. I love the title, super cute! 

Again, loving the title because it's so true, holidays are the best days, of course! I like that it's in the beginning because in one of my planners, these were at the very back! 

With every month, there's a different quote and image on the pages! Every page is different and very unique! 

Before getting to the monthly view, you get a couple of pages for notes or anything you feel like jotting down and I love this because I don't have to flip all the way to the back to write in the notes section! 

Here's the monthly view and I like how the holidays are different colors! The boxes are a bit small, but that's not such a big issue to me because I write small to begin with and if I run out of room I can just write in the little notes section on the left side! :) 

Here's the weekly view! They aren't lined like Lilly's, but it's not something I'm picky about, more space and more decorating for me! :) 

 Here are the rest of the months for this year! :) 
September!

October!

November!

Lastly, December!

 As a first impressions/review post, I must say that I am in love with this planner! It's small, lightweight and great for every-day use! I might do a how I organize my everyday planner soon! :) 
Rate: 5/5 
The verdict for this planner is : Stephanie Alexandra Approved! 
Love this planner and I'm so glad I got it! :) 
(P.s. I've filled it out already and it's easy to read and space is great, pen ink doesn't bleed through, all in all a great planner! :D )

What planner are you using this year? Do you use a different planner for life/school/etc?

Happy Wednesday, y'all! Have a great day! :)

Acapulco Weekend Recap♡ (Prepare for lots of pictures!)

So this past weekend I went to Acapulco with the family and I had lots of fun! This was our last trip for the summer and it's bittersweet, but I know I'll be back very soon! 

We left Friday morning and got there around 2 pm (to be completely honest, I don't remember, I'm guessing lol) and it was crazy getting rooms because it was literally beyond packed! We almost didn't get to stay in our go-to hotel, but luckily we did! Once we left all our stuff in our rooms, we changed into our bathing suits and headed straight to the beach! Once we spent some time at the beach, we swam a bit at the pool area and once we had enough, we went upstairs and got ready for dinner! We didn't do much after that, just some dinner and family bonding! Here are the pictures! :) 

Entering the tunnel to head to Acapulco!

We stayed at the Copa Cabana Beach Hotel!

The hotel room view!


Our bedroom!

Mirror selfie because why not? haha 

The beautiful palm trees!! <3 

The beautiful sky! <3 

My face got cut, but look at my cute little cousin! <3 

We ate dinner at this restaurant called El Fogón!

I ordered the Gringa with Agua de Jamaica! <3

Then on Saturday we spent the time at the beach again and once we left the beach we ate some dinner and spent some time in downtown and had fun dancing and seeing a comedian in the hotel's bar area. It was a chill Saturday to say the least. :) Here are some pictures of that day! 

The sunset was beautiful on this day! 

Selfie on the beach! 

Selfie with the cousin! 

Picture with the lobsters [BRING IN THE DANCING LOBSTERS!]

Ended the night with a Corona Michelada <3 

On Sunday we packed our stuff, loaded everything into our vehicles and headed to Barra Vieja! We got there in about 30 minutes and we ordered our fish (I would insert the name, but I can't remember it nor spell it haha) and spent some family time and had a chill lunch close to the beach and after all of that and before the sun was going to set we headed home! Here are some pictures! :) 

Relaxing in the chair! <3 

Relaxing in the hammock (literally fell asleep! haha)

Our fish for lunch! It was so good! Thomasita is amazing!

Beach breeze, beach waves, sunny rays and smiles galore <3


Seriously love being at the beach <3 #beachbum

So that was my weekend in Acapulco! Hope you enjoyed this and hope your summer was [is] fantastic! Crazy how this summer went by so fast and I can't believe I start classes this Monday! 

Did you go anywhere this weekend? :)

Have a wonderful weekend, y'all!
