Bill Payne Photography is offering a $250 Senior Portrait Special to my Northern California readers! Bill is so fun to shoot with, scouts the most gorgeous locations, and always makes me feel confident in front of the camera. He actually took my first head shots ever when I started acting over 10 years ago! Since then, we've shot together so many times. He has photographed many of my outfit posts here on the blog! Fun fact: we aren't related at all, we just happen to have the same last name! To schedule a senior portrait session, click the link here and be sure to mention Practically Imperfect!

Back to school season just got even better! When I met Madeline, I was so inspired her kindness, creativity, and passion. She wanted to design a backpack with equal parts style and functionality, and she did just that. It has plenty of room and a square base so the bag always stays upright. How smart is that? And because it's so spacious, it will be great for weekend trips home too! I went straight for the navy with blue and gold since it matches UCLA's colors, but there are so many other cute color combos too! What I love most is how each backpack has a unique quote. I have a feeling that I will really appreciate the reminder that "nothing is impossible"... especially during midterms and finals! 

I've raved about the bags, and now I have to rave about the girl behind the brand! How amazing that she spent the summer before her senior year bringing her passions to life and starting her own business? Keep Madeline on your radar, because this girl is going places. She even plans on launching a  clothing and gift line this winter!

Graduation Announcements With May Designs

Hats Off Hexagon Graduation Announcements 

The past four years have flown by! I was just an excited freshman, totally enjoying my time in high school with the end nowhere in sight. And then I blinked and became a nostalgic senior. Things got real when I decided on UCLA, and then really real when I realized that it was time to pull out the address book and send out graduation announcements! 

I am so excited to be teaming up with May Designs today to share my announcements. I wanted to keep my them simple, yet unique and original. I was able to do just that with the endless style, font, and color combinations to choose from. Although it was so hard to pick a favorite design, I loved taking the time to get the it just right. My high school and college colors are the same, so I decided to embrace royal blue with details on the front and the bold print on the back. I ended up picking this design. I love every little detail about my announcements, especially the "hats off" emblem on the front!

As I end this chapter and prepare for the next one, I'm so thankful to collaborate with May Designs. I love how my graduation announcements turned out and cannot wait for my family and friends to receive them!
