Consenescere: Spending Time In Central Park & Home

*Near Strawberry Fields*

Over the past weekend I took a trip with two of my friends back home. We planned this trip a couple of weeks ago and I've been super excited because I haven't been home since August.  The bus we traveled on dropped my friends and I in New York City so we decided to spend a day roaming around and go to Central Park and Times Square. My other two friends hadn't been around the city as much as I had and so this was sort of a tourist experience for them. 

Here are some pictures we took at Central Park.

Outfit:

Maxi Cardigan - Urban Outfitters

Boyfriend's Tee - Forever 21

Gray Leggings - Cupio

Brown Boots (similar to mine) - Target

Makeup Standouts:




*An awesome tunnel that I forgot the name of!*

One of my friends told me that I always get the awesome "hair blowing in the wind" pics...very true.

*Right outside of the tunnel*

Laura and I's favorite candid pic! Thanks Lauren for the picture! This picture is literally my favorite. 

*Sitting on a bench at the walkway towards Bethesda*

This beautiful leaf just fell onto my shoulders. I needed a picture of this!

*Again near Bethesda, the three of us*

One of my favorite group picture of us out of a bunch. There's a fantastic one of us where we look absolutely goofy but Lauren would not appreciate me posting it here :P

Trust me we had a lot of pictures between the three of us but these were our favorite. It was a beautiful day in Central Park and I couldn't have been more happier then to spend it with these two. This was also Laura's first time in Central Park and she loved it. 

We roamed around Central Park a little bit more before heading to Times Square. We were all super exhausted at that point and just wanted to get to my home. We met up with my mother at the Port Authority (she works in the city) and we all finally went to my house. 

My mom and dad made an epic meal and I had never been more happy than that moment of eating a home cooked meal. I was so happy to see my family after months and it made me feel sane again. 

Being in school felt so repetitive and lonely. Drama has been happening around the apartment and stress has been piling up. I not only needed this weekend but my friends needed this as well. It makes me humble and love my family even more. I love to be independent but nothing beats home.

*Me (wearing the shirt I bought for my brother who hates it), my sister, and the cutest dog in the world Pebbles. She even has her own hashtag on instagram #iamzepebbles*

My short and sweet weekend lifted my spirits. I can't wait until Thanksgiving and Christmas and the beauty of winter. I can't wait to be home for the holidays. 

I hope you enjoyed this post. It's something different for Amaryllis Living and I like it. I'll probably do more of these in the future. Until then!

Love Always,

Daisy

Lover.ly: Inspirations For An Autumn Wedding


Hello beauties and Happy Halloween! I hope you are all having a spooktacular day! But, as the weather turns a bit chillier and the leaves begin to fall to the ground, and love is in the air, what better time of year then to have a beautiful Autumn wedding. 

I love the fall season and the nice weather that it brings. People are falling in love, getting Pumpkin Spice lattes at their local Starbucks, and cuddling with their loved ones. Many, choose to have an Autumn wedding (I am definitely going to be that person) and brides are looking for inspirations on what to wear and how to wear their makeup. 

Although I'm single and would love a man to snuggle with, I do love to think about my future wedding from time to time. I was recently contacted by a representative (Hello Carolyn!) at Lover.ly (which is a website that helps with wedding planning and it is amazing! Brides, you should definitely check this website out) and was asked to create makeup inspirations for their beautiful gowns. 

So, challenge accepted! Click on read more and check out my makeup ideas for each wedding gown.
