NEW IN THE SHOP // WE FLAMIN-GO TOGETHER

*We Flamin-GO Together printable card

Although the start of summer is exciting and much needed after a long two semesters at school, that also means not being able to see your best friends every day anymore! What better way to brighten up your big/little's, best friend's, or even your BF's week by sending a handwritten note in the mail on this cheerful little flamingo card??

These flamingo notecards are one of my favorite new additions to the shop! The best part of these is once you purchase the downloadable file (only $3!!) the file is yours to save on your computer and you can print as many of these cute little cards as you want!! Print them at home or bring them to your local print shop and snail mail the day away!!

Shop my flamingo cards here, and check out the rest of my Etsy shop here!

Thanks for stopping by! Who are you sending these cute notes to this summer??

XOXO,

Angela & Amy

AROUND TOWN // MOTHER'S DAY WEEKEND

Hello, and happy Monday! I hope your weekend was full of family, fun, and great weather!

I've decided to bring back my around town posts to share a little peek into my life! Also, now that I'm on summer break until September (!!!) I have a lot of fun plans coming up that I can't wait to share!

Here's a little peek into my weekend...

PHOTO #1: WEEKEND FUN AND TARGET RUNS

I popped into Target with the intentions of getting snacks to sneak into the movies (BTW- we saw Guardians of the Galaxy and it was so good!), but I stumbled across the new Day Designer collection! I can't decide what my favorite print it between the blue and white pattern and the palm leaf print!

Vineyard Vines dress // Jack Rogers sandals

On Sunday, we celebrated my mom! We started off by heading over to my brother's house for a fun afternoon and then ended the day at my sister's for a BBQ dinner complete with mimosas and a family kickball game. Also- I just got this dress and I already know it's going to be my go-to all summer long!

PHOTO #3: MAY FLOWERS

After a few chilly weeks the weather finally started to warm up this weekend! My favorite thing about the springtime is all the blooming flowers and these lilacs did not disappoint! 

How did you celebrate your mom this weekend??

XOXO

MAY INSPIRATION BOARD

Back In January I made one of these little inspiration board posts and had the intentions of keeping it up every month. Although it's been a few months since that original post, I'm excited to share my May inspiration board on File to style!

This month I'm all about the pink... pink flowers, pink drinks, and everything in between! Some of my favorite pictures and painting inspiration have been from Rifle Paper Co. illustrations, A Thing Created from Etsy, Evelyn Henson, and Ashley Brooke Designs bright pictures!

Be sure to check our Pinterest boards to see what inspires us every day!

What's on your inspiration board this month? We'd love to know!

XOXO,

I'M BACK! BLOG AND SHOP UPDATE!

*Shop this print here!

Hello, long time no talk once again! To say that this last semester has been a little busy would be an understatement to say the least. Unfortunately the blog and shop were the first things to get put on the backburner. A lot has changed in the last few months! Since the last time jumped on the blog I went through sorority recruitment and accepted a bid to join Tri Sigma on my campus, took 15 credit hours in school, worked two jobs, and so so much more!

Now that finals are officially over and life has slowed down a little, I'm happy to say that my blogging days are back and I've been working on new designs to add to the shop! Here's a little peek at what's new to my Etsy shop...

JANUARY INSPIRATION BOARD

I'm always looking for inspiration whether I'm walking around Target snapping pictures of the cute Valentine's Day display, scrolling through Instagram saving and screenshotting my favorite pictures, or flipping though a magazine ans ripping out my favorite pages to tuck away in my folders.

I know I can't be the only one who thinks like that... So, I decided to start making monthly inspiration boards to share on File to Style! These are also for my own personal reference when thinking about new ideas for products, Instagram pictures, and blog posts, but I know you will enjoy these too!

Currently, my favorite places/brands/artists to go to for inspiration are Papersource for their adorable stationary, Rifle Paper Co. for their fun illustrations, Evelyn Henson for her punny sayings and paintings, and of course Pinterest for everything in between!

Hope you enjoy!

XOXO,

Angela & Amy

MY SCHOOL ROUTINE {FALL 2016}

Happy Monday! Since the semester is officially in full swing, mid-terms are in the past and winter break is in sight (hurry up, please!), I thought it was time to share an updated peek at what my days have been like! Usually my days end up being pretty hectic, but I try and squeeze in some relaxation and downtime when I can to keep stress levels low. Here's a little peek into my crazy days...

6:45-7:00... Wake up! 

I usually use this time to scroll through Instagram and Facebook before dragging myself out of bed.

7:00-7:30...Eat breakfast and drink coffee!

The most important part of my day! If I skip on breakfast or coffee, my whole day is thrown off and I'm not as productive. Usually my breakfast consists of a whole grain waffle with peanut butter and a big ol' cup of coffee. This is pretty quick, easy to make and keeps me full until lunchtime!

7:30-8:00...Get ready!

I never skip my skincare routine my morning isn't complete without giving my skin a good cleanse with my favorite Tula cleanser, refreshing toner, and hydrating eye cream. I don't wear too much makeup for class but I always like to wear my favorite powder foundation and mascara!

8:30...Leave for campus!

Since I don't live on campus, I like to leave pretty early to make sure I can get a good parking spot. I pack up my backpack and throw on my go-to outfit that usually consists of my lulu leggings and a comfy lilly inspired college sweatshirt and head out!

9:00...Work work work work work!

I usually get to campus pretty early (like, a few hours early!) so I can try and work on homework or File to Style stuff! I feel like I'm way more productive in the morning!

Afternoon...Class!

I have most of my classes in the afternoon, usually I'm in class for a few hours and between classes I eat lunch and hang out with my friends!

6:00...Get home & eat dinner!

7:00... Shower and get ready for the next day!

I try and pack my lunch, pick out my outfit and get as much as I can ready for the day so my morning won't be too hectic!

8:00-11:00...Study, work on homework, work on File to Style stuff!

Because it seems like all I do is study and work on homework. #Collegelife.

11:30-12:00... Lights out!

I hope you enjoyed a peek into my day! What does a normal school day look like for you? 

PS all the cute artwork you see is from Evelyn Henson!

XOXO

WE'RE BACK! + FILE TO STYLE PEN GIVEAWAY!

Hello friends! Sorry for being a little MIA over the past few weeks... both of us got caught up in the hustle and bustle of the busy back-to-school season! Now that we both have somewhat of a routine between work, school, and of course our Etsy Shop (filetostyle), we are so excited to get back to blogging and sharing our file to style favorites with you all!

To kick off the "re-launch" of our blog, we thought it would be fun to do a giveaway with our very own File to Style Pens!  If you've been following us you know we recently launched 2 styles of ballpoint pens that are super cute, stylish and pass our perfect pen writing test.

We will be giving away 2 sets of pens along with a coordinating Rifle Paper notebook. We at File to Style love ourselves a cute little notebook that can be thrown in your bag for any last minute thoughts or to-do lists.

The first style is our navy and hot pink, preppy stripe pen with blue ink.  We absolutely love this style and it always brings us back to warm weather, Lilly Pulitzer shift dresses and beach vacations.

Our second style is a light blue and navy gingham  pen with blue ink.  The minute these beauties arrived we were so excited to show them off.  We decided to launch them in Fall because gingham makes us think of sweater weather, apple orchards and pumpkin spice lattes. To get more of our love of gingham check out this post.

To enter see our Insta feed @filetostyle for giveaway details.

P.S. You can enter both giveaways to double your chances of winning ;-)

Good luck!

XOXO
Amy & Angela
