Happy International Women's Day to all of the amazing women in this world! For this post, I have teamed up with Style Collective to spread the mission of this inspirational holiday. For those of you who have never heard of International Women's Day, it is a "global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women." This day is about all of the #girlbosses, #influencers, #entrepreneurs, #leaders, #teachers, #bossbabes, and any other amazing w

It's that time of year again - the closet is overflowing with items and there is no longer room for exciting new pieces. You love what you have, but how many do you actually wear anymore? I've been watching Tidying Up with Marie Kondo on Netflix and decided to give the Konmari method a try. I just focused on clothing since that's what I have the most and it was definitely hard to say goodbye. So many of my items have memories - first date with Alex, Christmas at Grandma's, sh

After a long week at work, it was definitely time for some therapy... retail therapy of course! I called up my friend Meghan and hit the mall. The mall might not be paradise to some, but it's definitely my favorite place to unwind. I could honestly go shopping every day if I had the money! We went to the Somerset Collection, which is my absolute favorite place to shop. They have all of my favorite stores - Lilly Pulitzer, Kate Spade, J.Crew, Vineyard Vines, Nordstrom, Altar'd

It's that time of year again - the yearly eye exam. I always dread this because it means getting new lenses, which are always super expensive. Why do we have to spend tons of money just to see clearly? It doesn't make any sense. Last year I spent over $400 on frames and lenses. That's crazy! This time I was definitely looking for an alternative to avoid spending so much. One of my coworkers was raving about a new company called Warby Parker. Being that I've had glasses for se

Goodbye 2018, hello 2019. It was a good year, but I'm excited to make many more amazing memories. However, let's take a look back on highlights of 2018 one last time... January Unfortunately I was dumped, but it let to amazing things later on. New year, new me! (Literally) February This was a pretty laid back month, but I did spend time adventuring my hometown with my best friend Josh. He loves photography, so we had a mini photo shoot. (I literally can NOT do a serious face!

Happy Thursday everyone! Today's my first day of my winter semester and it's definitely going to be an interesting semester. Since I'm almost done with my program, I'm only taking 6 credits this semester - two Occupational Therapy classes. Both of my classes are on Thursday, which never happens! This is the first time I've never had to be on campus several times a week! I'm not sure how I feel about it yet, but so far I'm pretty okay with it. It's usually pretty chilly on cam

Happy Saturday! Today I spent the day running errands while Alex was at work. I went to Plato's Closet/Style Encore to sell some old clothes, Warby Parker to get new glasses, and Athleta to redeem my giftcard. (Thank you Athleta for drawing my name in their giveaway!) I ended up going to a few extra places to kill time and of course spent too much money. However, I did find a really awesome thrift store, so I'll be doing another post later in the week to show you guys my luck

I don't know about you, but once I find a product that I love, it's hard to move onto something else. You swear that item was made just for you and then the worst possible thing happens - it's discontinued. I honestly don't know what to do with myself when that happens because I feel so lost! Anywho, these are some beauty products that I've seriously been loving lately. Let me know in the comments if you've tried any of these for yourself! Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara -
