I scheduled this post prior to East Carolina’s season opener this past weekend because I was missing the feeling Greenville gets when football season starts. Â When I was in high school, I wasn’t quite sure where I wanted to go to college, and kicked around a couple of ten options. Â My dad went to East Carolina for both of his degrees, and I had been on campus for football games growing up, but there was something about a visit I made in the spring of 2005 that let me know it was the right fit for me.
My feelings were confirmed when I attended my first football game while in college. Â My friends and I all joined the Student Pirate Club and had the best time at the first game. Â And I’d be lying if I didn’t tear up a little when the intro video played in Dowdy-Ficklen that hot Saturday. Â Since then, East Carolina football has been an important part of my life every fall.
When I snagged this top from Monkee’s of Greenville, I knew I’d pair it with white jeans & my gold Anchor Beads necklace (seen here). Â And these booties are still one of my favorite pairs of shoes. Â They’re so comfortable and perfect for transitioning in the South with our chilly mornings & warm afternoons. Â And despite Labor Day weekend coming & going, I’m still rocking my white jeans over here.

Such a great and put together game day outfit! We have a Gator bar here in Boston and it’s always a fine line of looking put together and comfortable! xo, Biana –BlovedBoston
The perfect outfit!! Going to the ECU/NCSU game this weekend and I’m pretty sure my husband will have a stroke if I wear purple. So might have to go neutral on this one haha. Btw we are having an Anchor Beads trunk show on October 20th, I wish I could invite all my blog ladies! Xo
Those shoes are to-die-for! I get so jealous around this time of year because my school didn’t have a big football following, so no Game Day outfits :(. This one is way too cute though! Maybe I’ll pretend to be a pirate sometime?!
Xo,
