Happy New Years!!!

Hello my lovelies! It has been too long since I've blogged! So so sorry! Anyway, I hope you all had wonderful holidays! I certainly did! I got a ton of wonderful clothes which I wore on my trip to Washington D.C! Take a look :)

On the first day of our trip we were going to the zoo so I had to pick something that would be comfortable, warm, and cute yet casual. Black and white patterned leggings with a red sweater was the perfect choice! 

That night we had a special dinner at the American Girl Doll store! I had to wear my favorite dress from Belle and Ty! :)

 

I'm gonna get a little off topic here to talk about Belle and Ty. This store is a pop-up experiment right now, and, very surprisingly, is owned by Belk! I knew when I walked into the store when it was in Charlotte that I had to have everything! Take a look :) 

My Belle and Ty dress made the night wonderful :) 

The next day was going to involve a LOT of walking in the rain so I picked a cozy sweater and leggings that would also look cute indoors. 

This is Gabby Douglas' very first leotard!!!

And Judy Garland's ruby slippers!!!

(That perfect Aztec sweater is also Belle and Ty btw!)

Anyway, our third and final day was the very coldest, so colored jeggings with sweater and scarf was the only thing that would do!

Me with the Apollo 11 capsule!

Buzz Aldrin's space suit!

And me in front of our nation's Capitol!

D.C was wonderful and I got to see and experience some really neat things! Certainly a great way to end the year!!! Happy New Year to all my flawless readers! 

Until next year,

Madeline <3

BeYOUtiful ~ Behind the scenes of my photo shoot! :)

Why hello there! :)

So sorry I haven't posted in forever, school started and man has it been crazy. Luckily this weekend I had enough time to get together will a wonderful friend of mine, Ruth, who is a great photographer. She took some amazing pictures that I thought I'd share :)

I think that photos can reveal a lot about a person. I think these show my silliness and maybe a little bit of my sassiness. Of course, they also reveal a lot about my fashion sense. I obviously love vintage style like high waisted shorts, the old soft t-shirts, and the beautiful peplums. I also have some modern style in me, as obvious my shoes, skinny, jeans, and my hair hehehe! (By the way, if you want my natural ombre, which was a total accident by me, wear your hair in a top-knot ALL.SUMMER.LONG)

What do your pictures reveal about you? Post one on Instagram and let me know just by tagging #Lemonadeandcutoffs, also don't forget for a little while longer I am giving shoutouts to anyone who follows my new photography Instagram, @mfdphotography :) PLUS for reading until the end of this post you get an extra special opportunity. Simply go comment your favorite color on my latest Instagram photo and you will get a shoutout :)

Thank you for reading, lovelies :) Love,

Hey guess what!!! For reading this blog post you win a IG shoutout opportunity!!! Go comment your favorite Starbucks drink on my latest Instagram post for a shoutout! Shhhh it's a secret! :)

How to get TWO Starbucks frappuccinos for the price of ONE!!! Plus Starbucks' Secret Menu!

I've got my DIY tanks, my cut-off shorts, and my vintage red bike! I'm ready for a beach trip starting tomorrow, but first I'd like to share some Starbucks secrets :)

BOGO FRAPPUCCINOS

Ok so if you're like me, you're addicted to Starbucks. It can be an expensive addiction, especially if you like frappuccinos! My favorite is the java-chip, so I'll use that as an example. What if I told you you could have two grandes for one dollar more than the tall!  Without tax two grande java-chip frappuccinos should cost 8.50, but with this trick you can get them both for 4.50! That's almost BOGO, and, depending on the barista, it works every time! All you have to do is order a venti, then simply ask the barista to split it into two grande cups an voila you have BOGO frappuccinos! 

SECRET MENU

While everyone has their favorite Starbucks drink, like my java-chip frappuccino, sometimes it's nice to have something new! Starbucks has a secret menu that, again depending on the barista, you should be able to order off of. This includes Girl Scout cookie and orange dreamsicle frappuccinos :) You can read the full secret menu on starbuckssecretmenu.net!

 

If you use the trick or order off the secret menu I'd love to know! :) Share your adventures! Can't wait to get back to some serious fashion blogging! Get excited! 

Much love,
