An Autumn Weekend In My Life + OOTD

September 26, 2017

Hey everyone, thanks for visiting Allison in Wonderland today!  Last week’s post (linked here) was all about my birthday – I turned 21 last week!  So, this week, I thought it would be fun to give you another little glimpse into my life with a weekend in my life post.  Enjoy!

Starting on Friday, I went to my first and only class of the day – tennis.  For the past two semesters, I’ve been spoiled with not having Friday classes, so this semester is a little different for me.  But even though I do have class, it’s such a fun one to go to!  Let me know in the comments if you’d like to see a post about the best and easiest classes to take at JMU!

After grabbing some lunch after class, I met up with a photographer (@elefthographia) that also goes to James Madison to do a little downtown photoshoot.  I originally wanted to take some autumn-y photos with a warm, oversized sweater and boots but it ended up being in the 80s when we were shooting so I went for a bit of a cooler look.  I had to throw the outfit together pretty quickly once I realized how hot it was going to be but I love how it turned out!  My overalls are from Urban Outfitters and my tee is from Macy’s!  I got both of these pieces pretty recently, so they should still be in stock if you wanna scoop them up.

After we were done shooting, I raced right to an event for my sorority where we were celebrated the bids we recently gave out to our new candidates for this semester!  Gaining new sisters is always fun but this year was extra special for me because it’s the last recruitment I’ll go through before I graduate.  My time in my sorority has gone by so quickly and I’ve loved every minute of it; I can’t believe it’s almost over!

On Saturday, I headed to Pennsylvania to spend the rest of the weekend with my boyfriend!  We spent most of our night in Gettysburg at the Appalachian Brewery.  They had the cutest little outdoor space with picnic tables and string lights and it was a great place to meet up with friends!  I will definitely be going back as soon as I can.

I finished off the weekend with a few meetings and tried to take some time to relax before another busy week began!  This time of year is so incredible for enjoying down time because the weather is wonderful and the scenery is so beautiful.  I just can’t wait for October to begin so I can break out my fall sweaters!

Thanks for reading today’s “Weekend In My Life” post and don’t forget to follow Eleftheria (my photographer for the photos above) on Instagram!  Have a great week!
