Fashion Friday

Clearance

Clothing Shopping

When I lived in North Carolina, I wasn’t a big fan of shopping the winter clearance racks because it was already time for spring clothes. But one advantage to living in a place where it snows in April, is when the winter clothes go on sale in February, there are still many months left to pile on the layers. Recently, I’ve gotten a few great deals on winter clearance items: Gap cardigan for $13.99, white Gap button-up for $9.99, and…

Fashion Friday: Going Green

Travel

Happy weekend friends, This week was a fast one, and I’m sure the weekend will be even faster. I’m on my way to Baltimore to visit my grandmother. My sister and mom are meeting me there, so I’ll get to hang out with the whole crew (plus Matt’s family on Saturday night!!) So I tried to go green this week (both at work and when I went out) in honor of St. Patty’s day. I’ve always been a little obsessive…

Rethinking Fashion Friday

Uncategorized

Hola. It’s a rainy afternoon in Boston, and since I knocked out a workout before work this morning, I’m enjoying some couch time and catching up on laundry. I’ve also been doing some thinking about Fashion Friday. I originally started posting photos of outfits after my first week of working full-time  because I’d never needed to wear anything other than jeans on a typical day and I wanted to challenge myself to mix up my wardrobe. Snapping pictures of my…

Fashion Friday: Is it spring yet?

Clothing Shopping

Since I had extra free time this week, I finally got the opportunity to peak into a few stores for a spring preview. I’m not quite ready to buy yet, and yall know I like to pre-shop so I make good choices. Though I saw lots of cute stuff, I actually wasn’t blown away by any of the spring collections. It’s probably because I didn’t go into Anthropologie or French Connection because I’ve learned that those two stores only leave me…

Spring Teaser

Clothing

The air is fabulous. I feel like the world stopped turning for a while, and now it’s back. Too bad this weather is only temporary…tomorrow’s forecast is 34 with a wind advisory. Regardless, today’s weather inspired me to run outdoors – a rare urge for this girl. I jogged to the Boston public garden and back and enjoyed every moment of it. Of course, since my stomach has a history of disagreeing with running (esp. outdoor running), I made sure…

(I) Heart Cake

Clothing

Good afternoon. So I’m out the door on the way to a bridesmaids gathering for my newly engaged friend Lauren. I was in charge of a dessert and I knew I wanted to bake something new, but I wasn’t sure what. I love cake, but I’ve actually never baked my own (well, I’ve obviously made one from a cake mix before, but never from scratch), so I decided to give it a shot. I had so much fun baking this!!!!…

Three Day Week

Uncategorized

Unexpected vacation days are sooo nice! I found out about the snow day around 7 and went right back to sleep for another hour. I didn’t have much planned at work today (because the students were supposed to take midterms), so I did not feel bad taking it easy alll day. I made Matt pancakes this morning, hit up spinning class at 10, and then cleaned, organized, and worked on my to-do list all afternoon. It was such a productive…
