For the first time in what’s felt like months, the sun shone, no snow fell, and I was happy to brave a slight chill just to wear a cute dress. I did everything from trying out a new coffee shop, dropping off clothes at the consignment shop, and then treating myself to some new Bobbi Brown makeup and Essie nail polish. Best part, I had absolutely no shopper’s remorse after my Spring-y adventure. Fast forward a day – overjoyed at myself at…
Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that the 90’s are making a comeback? Flares, jean jackets, and chunky shoes – it’s almost like the Spice girls have been stocking the shelves themselves. There’s only a few pieces of clothes still in my closet from the 90’s, all of which are too small to wear now but I’ve kept for sentimental value. I have a shiny blue pair of Limited Too pants hanging next to an old prom dress,…
So, I must apologize for the significant gap between posts. The life of a graduate student is always unpredictable and unfortunately last week I was sick with flu-like symptoms. I guess I should be grateful that classes were canceled because of Storm Juno and I didn’t miss anything, but I was too miserable to even enjoy bingeing on Netflix. Thankfully, not too long after my boyfriend’s and mine two year anniversary, I started feeling better and now I am fully prepared for…
If in case you hadn’t previously read, this August, I’ll be in my friend A’s wedding. A and I have been friends for ~12 years, but even if you only knew her for 12 minutes, you’d know in a heartbeat that her lifelong goal is to basically be Barbie. With her blonde hair, hot pink bedroom, and a Mustang convertible, she’s fairly close to achieving her dream. The only thing that could make it better is if she had a Barbie…
When I was little, the best birthday parties involved ice cream cake, a sleepover and party favors! I had one friend whose Mom would fill them with pillows, trinket boxes from Claire’s, and a sheet of those adhesive earrings where one would stay stuck for hours, but the other would disappear into the tangles of your hair after minutes. Even though party favors seemed to fall out of style during our teenage years, I knew that a bachelorette party had to have…
Once Caitlyn’s family left, it was time for some of the more traditional bachelorette games to begin!! I conspired with some of Caitlyn’s friends and her fiancee to come up with really embarrassing and challenging tasks. Her fiancee even required that she answer one of the questions on the Groom Quiz word for word as his answer! Penalty for an incorrect answer required a drink, which is why it’s smart to stock a bottle of the bride’s favorite alcohol in…
Everyone knows that bachelorette parties are a lot of fun, involving booze, primping, and a reason to party like you did as an undergrad. They’ve evolved from a crazy night at a bar, to a celebration of the bride’s friendships that can center around wine tasting’s, paint classes, or local food tours. Decorations help to provide a great backdrop for all of the memories that will be made (or forgotten) on the bride’s celebratory day. If you’re having trouble deciding on…
Sometime during my first year of graduate school, my old college roommate called me to tell me that the event that we had all been waiting for had finally happened…Ben & her were engaged!!!! High pitched screams ensued followed by a rapid description of the ring, proposal details, and crazy wedding ideas that only the richest people could afford. When we calmed down enough she asked if I would plan her bachelorette party, which led to even more enthusiastic exclamations.…
