Beauty, Simplified

You may be the kind of girl who isn’t big on wearing makeup because she thinks it takes too much time.  You could be the girl who would love to wear makeup regularly, but only wears it when she’s going out for a night on the town.  Maybe you’re the girl who knows everything there […]

From My Mom’s Kitchen: A Tasty Spamwich?? Yes!

My family has always enjoyed taking day trips to discover and re-experience all the local fun and sights available near or around our town. A lot of my childhood memories involve waking up early to get dressed, prep the car, grab some travel sized cereal boxes and sandwiches, stock up on water bottles and head […]

Library Launch

I never liked group projects.  Just like an episode of Survivor, everyone going into a group project has a desire to vote someone off of the island.  Who’s the kid that’s going to sleep through the meeting?  Not contribute his/her part to the group paper?  The deemed “loser” is all relative in group projects, too.  […]

Target + Neiman Marcus: A Collaboration to Get Excited About!

Quick: pop quiz! Where can you buy fabulous Marc Jacobs, Diane Von Furstenberg, and Marchesa pieces this holiday season? If you answered Neiman Marcus, you’re spot on. But if you answered Target … you’re also correct! Starting December 1, these two stores will be selling the exact same pieces from fashion’s favorite designers- at the same prices. […]

As a lover of anything that has to do with manicures, I’m constantly trying to come up with something new and fun for Manicure Monday.  To me, Manicure Monday has become more than just showing off what cute color I’m rocking that week.  To be honest, I can’t have a Manicure Monday without making it […]
