Photo courtesy of LucasFilms/ StarWars.com Yesterday, the world lost an incredible actress, writer, mental health advocate, and an all around bad ass. Carrie Fisher was found drowned in moonlight, strangled by her bra at the age of 60. As a little girl, I grew up with the usual Disney princesses: Snow White, Cinderella, Mulan, the list goes on. While Mulan was definitely my...
I don't know about you, but I love getting mail. There's something so thoughtful about getting a handwritten card from a friend that's far away. Cards bring people closer, no matter the distance. On the flip side, I am obsessed with finding funny, cute cards for my loved ones. It doesn't matter the occasion if I see a card I like and reminds me...
Can we take a moment to appreciate these new booties. Aren't they the most beautiful thing you've ever laid eyes on. I'm from New Jersey, leopard print is part of my soul. This TJMaxx super find is a little Christmas present for me. They're Sam Edelman Edith boots and I got them for a steal at $50. These guys are a new addition to my...
Hi gang! The holiday season is officially upon us. It's the time for cookie baking, non-stop Christmas music, and of course gift giving. I'm very lucky to have so many great people in my life that I want to treat to some Christmas goodies, but I'm on a tight budget and don't want to break the bank. Thankfully I don't have to. I'm a...
Hey gang, so as you may have noticed the content on this page has been a little lacking lately. It's that time of year, I'm sure those of you who are students know this, but November sucks in regard to school work. The semester is quickly closing in on me and I'm up to my eyeballs in papers and projects. Totally procrastinated on...
As you all know fall is my favorite season. There are so many things to do when the leaves start to turn orange and I live for it. I am #basic and am so proud of it. I see nothing wrong with being basic and enjoy festive fall things. Do you, and screw anyone else who gives you grief about what you like....
Photo Courtesy of Yelp I'm a total foodie. I dream about what to eat for dinner while I'm eating breakfast. Anytime I get the chance to try a new restaurant I get super excited. So this series will be a few of my favorites. I'm starting off with one of my favorite restaurants from my old stomping ground in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. The Stonehouse...
I'm back at it again with experimenting with vegetables as pasta! Today's excursion was with zoodles aka zucchini noodles! I bought a Veggetti which spiralizes vegtables. I bought a lovely zucchini for dinner and decided to spiral it up to create a healthier pasta alternative. So a little jaw surgery update for you all. So I basically can eat whatever I want now...
Palmyra, jewel of the Syrian desert, home of archaeological wonder, victim of terrorism, and subject of my senior capstone project. Let's just say I love this site and am terrified of what may happen to it if violence continues in Syria. So let's go into the background on this site shall we, courtesy of my capstone paper: Palmyra is located in the center...
I love fall. Am I jumping the gun a bit, probably, but fall is my absolute favorite season. It's cool, crisp, not humid, and layers are finally back in fashion after a long hot summer. I am terrible when dressing for summer. I feel super exposed in short shorts because of my long legs. So now that fall is here I am prepared...
Hey hey hey! I started my first ever semester of grad school this week. It's been a bit of a change from undergrad. For starters I'm commuting which is totally different from living on campus. On top of that my classes don't start until 6:30 pm each evening and run until 8:40. That's super late for me, I'm usually in bed by 10!...
My house has been having a major wifi problem so I'm sorry for the lack of posts but everything should be fixed so I'm no longer living in the stone age! Anyway today I had an interview for a part time job and I thought I'd share my outfit with you all! I kept it pretty simple and chic. Basically my entire outfit...
Recently I've stepped up my skincare game. I used to be really bad at washing my face every night, using moisturizer, etc. Since getting surgery my skin has been having a MAJOR freak out. My skin went from super dry and flaky to super oily and acne prone. Yes, I totally have gotten spots here and there especially during that time of the...
I'd like to think I know a thing or two about self tanning. I've always been fairly decent at it. Helping me achieve my faux glow was my Sugar Babies Golden Tanning Mousse. In a recent post which you can find here, I was on a hunt for more of my Sugar Baby self tanner and I had thought I hit the jackpot...
