Springing Forward

{Via}
Don’t get me wrong, I love when it is time to spring forward, the days are longer, the mornings are prettier, and I for one feel like I have more time during the day. Although there are many positives to spring forward, and it is way better than falling back an hour {minus the extra hour of sleep} I have been having the worst time adjust to the time change this year; is daylight savings time really necessary in today’s world? Even though I feel like I am waking up at the same time I normally do I still feel like I am getting up an hour earlier and I am going to bed later than I normally do, needless to say my internal body clock has yet to adjust to the new time change. On top of the time change I gave up Coca-Cola for lent this year…I’m not a coffee drinker so I normally drink an 8oz glass bottle of coke in the morning, which isn’t the healthiest thing in the world and is a habit I needed to break, but it’s been a little rough going without a caffeine fix in the morning to get me going. Normally I’m not one to sleep-in but I am so looking forward to being able to do just that this weekend and hopefully get rid of the bags and dark circles that have taken residence under my eyes this week. Below are a few of my favorite sleep essentials. 
J. Crew Vintage Short-Sleeve Pajama Set
A comfortable, yet fashionable set of pajamas 
Kate Spade Ooh La Trouser Socks
Studies have shown that people get a better nights sleep when they wear socks to bed. How cute would these socks be with the above pajamas!
I always enjoy reading a good book before bed, reading always helps me to unwind and get my mind off of other things, which equals a better nights sleep for me.
Emily + Meritt Bedding
Last but not least a sheet set that you love!

    Why don't you drink coffee, but coke? That's so odd to me ;))

      I just have never much cared for the way coffee taste, but in the South Coke is always a good thing!

    I adore caffeine but temper myself. My favs? Jasmine tea, coffee, and Diet. Mt. Dew.

    LOVE that bedding. Seriously gorgeous.

      Diet. Mt. Dew is definitely a good one! I love that bedding too, it is perfection, plus I love a good gold and white combo!

    I'm also a die-hard Coke drinker. I've just never acquired a taste for coffee. Great picks!
