A couple weeks ago I received this new Cafe Society Black and Cream Striped Shirt Dress from Lulus in an XS. Originally I ordered it in a small assuming it might have been a little snug and I didn’t want it to be tight on me. Turns out the small was way too big for me. I almost looked like I was downing in the small so I exchanged it for an XS and it fits perfectly! It’s not too tight and just the right amount of looseness. This dress also comes with a build in slip which is great! I was ...
A Food-Filled Weekend in NYC
This past weekend Joe came to NYC to visit and help cross some food places off my NYC bucket list. On Saturday we started the day by checking out The Coffee Project New York in East Village. Joe ordered their Nitro-flight which is cold brew fed through a keg and infused with nitrogen that gives it a creamy texture without adding any dairy. I ordered their famous Deconstructed Latte which is a latte broken into 3-parts: espresso, steamed milk, and the full latte itself. This unique way to ...

#1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 As always, whenever I go home to North Carolina I tend to do a lot of shopping. I can’t help it! There are just too many cute stores and I’m a bit of a shopaholic.

Since I bought a lot of new clothes (enough to stock up on a new wardrobe), I’ve decided to share my top favorite items: Good Day Red Crochet Off-the-Shoulder Top from Lulus in ...
North Carolina, Some Much Needed Vacation Time
DRESS: Lulu's DRESS: Aqua Fedora (Woodstock Maxi Dress) TOP: Francesca's Collections There is one common trend you will find with New Yorkers and the summer. Can you guess it? Everyone is itching to be out of the concrete jungle and away at some beach baking in the sun. Well most people would prefer beach days to working days in the summer, but you will always find that NYC is dead on the weekends. We can’t seem to get away fast enough and for me I spent the past week home in ...
Living in the Present
I know it’s hard to admit one’s flaws, but I think it’s safe to say I’m pretty addicted to my cell phone. So addicted that even when my phone is dead (rare occurrence thanks to portable chargers), I feel more comfort holding my phone than leaving it in my bag or in another room to charge. After this past weekend, I realized I need to start putting my phone down more often and take advantage of living in the present. I am very fortunate that I not only stayed so close with my girlfriends from ...
