Life Lately: September

Man oh man. I can’t believe September is over. I love, love, love this month because it is so busy with SO MANY celebrations, including my birthday, anniversary, etc. but this September was especially sweet. I will look back on this month with only the best memories…

^ I settled into my pregnancy a bit more this month which felt amazing. Here’s a lil’ selfie action during date night in the Short North. I was so excited to be wearing my first maternity dress and to actually have a bump to show! Wearing: Target dress / Foley + Corinna Crossbody.

^ This month, we found out we are expecting a baby girl this January!!! This post was very personal for me to share on the blog but you all shared the love – it’s been my most popular post EVER so thank you!

^ How amazing is my mom? I just love her. My birthday cake this year was as delicious as it was pretty!

^ So excited to be wearing these scarlet + gray New Balance sneakers for the first Ohio State game of the season!

^ I found out y’all love blanket scarves as much as I do! I still would love to have every scarf on this list I put together!

^ The cutest prints from the local Penelopants!

^ Sweet Baby Rea turned 1 on September 13! Wearing: Madewell vest // Karen Walker sunglasses, much less expensive version here // Gorjana necklace.

^ Attended the most beautiful wedding at the Annunciation Greek Orthodox Cathedral   – you can see more pictures from Nikki & Zac’s wedding here!

^ Nic and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary on the 15th of this month! You can view our entire wedding post I did a couple of years ago here.

^ Collaborated with the local Simply Vague for a fun Instagram giveaway and look at the cutest things they sent me! The JRJ Nail Polish is amazing!!!

^ The changing of the seasons usually means a changing of the makeup routine! I shared my favorite Meijer finds that I’ve been using daily here.

^ A beautiful September dusk sky.

^ I’ve been obsessed with fall fashion this month which is why I had to put together a Scarlet + Gray Fashion Finds post!

^ Gosh, these mums are gorgeous. Wearing: Minnetonka moccasins.

^ Fall was in the air at The New Albany Classic! I had a great afternoon at my first classic with my sister-in-law and sweet nephew… and was able to pick up these gorgeous flowers which are still looking great! Wearing: Forever 21 Denim Dress, similar dresses here and here // Steve Madden boots

^ More mums. And yes, the outside of my house is now home to many mums from Strader’s 10 for $40 deal. I love them!!!

^ Brunched at Pistacia Vera in German Village with Maggie from Blush & Blooms.

^ Kirby and Mark’s wedding at the Columbus Country Club was stunning! You can view a few more pics from their wedding in this post.

^ I’m working on a really fun post with German Village that I can’t wait to share with you next month! This was shot just outside of The Book Loft – look at all that pink glitter!

^ Mirror selfie for a good reason – this cape is sooo cute and is at Vernacular – the cutest clothing/home/accessories store – located in both German Village and Grandview.

On to October – the month of pumpkins, fall leaves, and Halloween!girl_about_columbus_blog

This past year, I've learned so much & I want to share with you all... did you know: 
1.) All you need is $25 to start or add to your Ohio's 529 plan.
2.) Your Ohio's 529 plan be used NATIONWIDE - not just for Ohio schools.
3.) Your Ohio's 529 doesn't just cover tuition - you can use it on any qualified expense, like room & board, books, computers, internet services, mandatory fees and MUCH more.
4.) 529 plans aren't just for 4-year colleges. Ohio's 529 can be used at ANY type of school - whether that's a 4-year college, trade and tech schools, certificate programs, apprenticeships and more.
5.) There are SO many tax benefits - ALL earnings, including interest, grow tax-free, 529 plan withdrawals are tax-free when used for qualified higher education expenses, and you can deduct your contributions from their Ohio taxable income, up to $4K per year, per beneficiary.
