Last Monday I had a seriously bad case of cabin fever. Running errands over the previous weekend left me craving some time off campus and in the real world. So, despite having tons of work to do, after my classes on Monday I headed downtown for a little retail therapy. I got a cup of coffee and[...]
TORY BURCH MILLER SANDALI have a bit of a problem. I hate flats. Well, I don't hate them. But given the choice between a heel and flat, I always choose a heel. So I never seem to buy flats and that's a big problem for me when I try to look cute, but also need to walk all over campus. I also ten[...]
Normally I try to prep my posts the night before, but the last two weeks I've incorporated more to my schedule and I just haven't had time to write and prepare and post. I really feel guilty when I don't, 1) because I'm neglecting something you might enjoy reading; and 2) I started this blog as a me[...]
Today I bring you the easiest and most difficult DIY you will ever do. ;) The most difficult part is the prep and hunting down the supplies you need. I was having a bad day the day I made mine, so 1) that probably contributed to its difficulty; and 2) I hope I didn't jinx it for you if you decide to[...]
SIMLAR SWEATERSIMILAR SKIRTSIMILAR BELTSIMILAR SHOESI have to preface by saying I'm not extraordinarily pleased with this post. Well, the photos in this post. I cried a little because I'm a big baby.

I've mentioned that my mom is a Mary Kay consultant several times. She and her friends like the age-fighting skin care products and the makeup remover, which is one of my favorites too. I like Mary Kay products because I know I can try something new with only minimal breaking out. (I break out [...]
"MILANO" by A FASHION LOVE AFFAIRWhen I saw this look by Cara of A Fashion Love Affair, I immediately remembered that I own a very similar dress, ages old, from American Eagle. It's kind of itchy so I don't wear it too often, but I do like it. For some reason, I never thought to layer a top undernea[...]
PANTONE'S COLOR OF THE YEAR: ORCHIDLast year, the Pantone color of the year was emerald green. I posted about it a little (a lot) late because it's my favorite color. That my favorite color was color of the year was one of the highlights of my year, but it wasn't a great year so that's not difficult[...]
DOUBLE BRAIDED PONYTAIL TUTORIALOne of my resolutions this year was to learn how to do my hair and make up beyond my basic routine. I'm not totally incapable, but the learning process is really slow for me. I am trying though, and I'm sharing it here because I know I'm not the only one who struggles[...]
UNDERCOVER by STYLE SCRAPBOOKThis is definitely an older look from one of my favorite bloggers, Style Scrapbook, but I still love it. I was feeling uninspired so I start sifting through my "liked" posts on bloglovin'. I don't know about you, but I always like things I'm inspired by thinking I'll def[...]
